OOOOHH I can hardly wait.

I feel so Christmasy this year.

Maybe its all the kindergarten crafts

Or that we've been ripping links off our paper

Christmas countdown chain every day since

Thanksgiving.

Or that we have a Holly Madison bobble head doll

instead of an angel on our tree.

I loooove it.

I'm still not into Christmas music.

But i'm into everything else Christmas.

Let it Snow

Woke up this morning to this. And it still hasn't stopped.

Perfect cozy sunday.

Church, Taco Soup, Wrapping Christmas presents,

Arrested Development and cuddling with Press.

It won't be long

We have a good life. We both get to do exactly what we have always wanted to do. Since I can remember, I have wanted to be a teacher. i love love my job. My Kindergardeners inspire me and remind me of everything lovely in life. Preston is so good at everything he does. He is brilliantly smart and so handy. His passion is music and he gets to do it as a profession and support our little family by traveling the country and playing songs from his heart. How cool is that. This means that our life lately consists of Press being out of town at least a couple days a week. This last trip he has been gone for a week. We are both pretty independent people and I do fine by myself, But of course we are so much better together and sometimes, a lot of times I miss him. bad. So we go on skype dates and talk a bajillion times a day and I tell him about kindergarten and Grey's and he tells me about New York and Vermont and Wisconsin and airports and shows that went real well and ones where he accidentally dedicated 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas' to the only Jewish girl in the room.

So Thank you technology. because seriously, how did life even exist without cell phones and Skype and youtube and texting and Modern Family? Thank you technology. Cause you make Preston feel a little less far away even when he is miles of air and road and land away.

One thing that is nice about having time to myself is that I am extremely productive. Like just last night I watched at least 3 episodes of Greys Anatomy while cutting out 40 giant paper candy canes, separating 20 boxes of crayons by color, and water proofing all my snow boots. Oh, and I shaved my legs. Happy Saturday night.

Thanksgiving

We flew to Tahoe. It was real snowy.

Then We road tripped to San Jose

To See Aunt Babe and Uncle Tony:

Babe

Tony

It was so nice to just be with my family.

I love love them.

Mostly we were real lazy. Ate a lot, lounged a lot.

We got Lou Lou a Lady Gaga hair piece.

Looks very nice. Can you believe she is 11 years old?

So pretty. She's my oldest niece.

Then theres Kes who is the cutest 3 year old ever.

I think I'm obsessed with her. Good job Tresa. She is real perfect.

I can't wait to see everyone again at Christmas.

Dear family can you please all move to Idaho?

Immediately?

Our Kindergarten Thanksgiving was awesome. We partied hard, then watched Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and ate popcorn. I wish I could post more pictures but I feel like its maybe not ok to put pictures of the kiddies on my blog. But this one's just the back of their cute heads loving Charlie Brown, so I think its ok.
