The best way to spread Christmas cheer is by singing loud for all to hear.

Sunday was our one-year anniversary. To celebrate, yesterday we went out to Applebee's for dinner.

Jacob ordered a salad. I ordered a steak.

It made me giggle.

Baby, it's cold outside

In case you were wondering how I'm feeling at this exact moment in time, allow me to inform you:

I'm ridiculously giddy with anticipation.

Anticipation for what? Christmas? Seeing all of the nieces and nephews and siblings-in-law in a few days? Well, yes, that too.

But in just two short hours is the FOURTH GRADE CHRISTMAS PARTY!

And I'm surprising all of "my" former students just by showing up.

I can hardly wait!

Just sayin'

If first trimester morning sickness is anything like having the stomach flu for an extended period of time, I'm not sure I ever want to bear children.

Countdown

At this moment in time, I am:

1 day away from completing student teaching
2 days away from seeing the lights on Temple Square (it'll be Jacob's first time!)
3 days away from giving a talk in Sacrament meeting
8 days away from attending "my" fourth graders' Christmas party
10 days away from our one-year anniversary
13 days away from driving down to Arizona for Christmas
16 days away from Christmas.

Bring on the Christmas cheer!
