Christmas Spirit

Our first Christmas together has been great and it's not even Christmas yet! Being our first year sharing a home, we really got into the Christmas spirit! The day after Thanksgiving, my family came up to Portland and we all went to see the Christmas tree lighting in Pioneer Square. As you can see, we were all really excited about it! Ha!



We actually had a lot of fun singing carols before they lit the tree.





After we said goodbye to the fam, we headed straight to Lowe's and bought a bunch of lights for the house. Matt got up on the roof even though it was POURING rain! Colorful lights on the house, white lights along the fence :)



We put some lights inside the house too and have a beautiful tree. Matt set the DVR to record Christmas movies and the Christmas cartoons from when we were kids. It's been so fun watching them together... he seriously knows all the words to Charlie Brown and Mickey's Christmas :) And of course, we've been listening to lots and lots of Christmas music.



We leave on Thursday to spend Christmas with Matt's family. I'm excited for my first Christmas with the in-laws!
Merry Christmas everyone!
