so it's christmas...

tonight we put up our christmas tree! it's so beautiful and bright. i love this time of the year. we played christmas music, drank yummy, classy beer, and ate pizza- probably not the classiest, but i have to say, this new job has really got me tired. whoops! we also put some pretty red lights around our fireplace so everyone that can look directly into our front living room can get a view. we still haven't found big enough curtains for our large front window, but people seem to be walking by less now that it's cold so... whatever. free light show for you. ;)

we have a tradition of trading ornaments since we've lived together and nick always comes through! he got me two liverpool boot ornaments, and i got him a shark ornament since he is slightly obsessed. last year he got me a seashell and wrote "cancun" on it, since that was our first trip together, and i got him a key for his first house! i also got him a lump of coal ornament, because sometime's he's a pain in the ass. but i love him and i wouldn't have it any other way!

yaaay for christmas! bring on the holiday spirit!
