It WAS beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

 Every year we go up into the mountains to cut down a Christmas Tree.  This year I forgot to pick up a permit so instead of heading to the mountains right by our house we drove up to Rock Creek along with a hundred other people.  We found a tree though.  It looked beautiful in the ground, but when we cut it down we realized just how Charlie Brownish it was...

 We added some decorations and then it looked beautiful and elegant.

Jason and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary this year.  We went down to Salt Lake the week before for a little getaway.  It was soooo much fun!!!

 I made these pillows for my couch--thanks pinterest!

 I also covered my ottoman in fake fur--Jason says it looks like the pelt of an abominable snowman--to funny!

 In celebration of our 10 year anniversary I added little picture frames with pictures of all our Christmas's over the years!

 I also added some wreaths to my railings instead of garland--love how it turned out!

Lia was constantly getting into my wrapping supplies--here she is trying to wrap herself--she is a cute little present!!! Good thing I found her fast though, because it looks like she's about to choke herself!! She is walking everywhere and getting into everything--we call her the tornado!!
