Light Me Up

The fourth day of Christmas involved dancing... It was great! Although Matt had to go work on my car for a little bit, we had a wonderful time before he left. His stocking had a LED flashlight for his keychain because he lights up my life. Then we also danced to one of our favorite songs. You can hear it below.

On the Third Day of Christmas

Christmas continues with a gift under the tree and a note in Mr. Clark's stocking.

12 Days of Christmas

Day Two of Christmas was not so nice to me... I hit a stinking deer on my way home. But anyways yesterdays theme was "your love keeps me going" and there were energizer batteries in Matt's stocking. ...I wonder what will be under the tree?

Stray Rescue Fundraiser

Just so everyone is aware I'm going to be doing a fundraiser after Christmas. So start putting some money aside to help a wonderful organization. It will be for the Stracks fund that Stray Rescue of St. Louis has. Donations to the Stracks Funds helps medically treat the animals. To learn more click here.

Christmas Has Begun

This year I decided to do something a little more special leading up to Christmas. Each day there will be gifts, notes, candy and surprises in the stockings. For the first day of the twelve days of Christmas Matt got some Hershey Kisses in his stocking, a gift under the tree and a cute little note written on the mirror that read "Love Your Kisses". I was going to let him open his gift but I decided he should wait for Christmas. I have this thing about having all the presents in front of the tree so I can get a picture of all the gifts before opening them. So tune in on Christmas to see what he gets under the tree.

Anyways, last night as we are in the living room I noticed Ty licking something. Matt got up to investigate what  he was doing. Come to find out he had got Matt's stocking, had it inside out and ate all of Matt's chocolate foil and all. Not good. Luckily by morning he had got most of the foil up... we believe.

Stray Rescue

Of course everyone knows I love to network dogs. One shelter I love to help in anyway I can is Stray Rescue of St. Louis. Just take a look at this organization and see why I LOVE them.

Christmas!

Our tree is up. In fact we put it up before Halloween. I wanted to do it sooner but I held off as long as I could.

 

Matt has also been busy putting up items that we were able to purchase from our wedding gift cards. Here is the fan we were able to get from the Menard's gift card given to us by some of Matt's lovely co-workers.

 

We were also able to get some items for our bedroom (curtains and wall decor) from bed bath and beyond. I plan to spice the curtains up some and paint the walls in the next few months.
