December

December is such a fun and busy month. A lot of little things have happened so far this month.

First, Luke and I reached the exciting milestone of our six month anniversary. Six months and going strong. Our ward had the adult session of Stake Conference that evening so we celebrated by going out to dinner afterwards.

Also, December means Christmas is coming! For family who won't get the chance to see our little apartment all dressed up for Christmas... this is how it looks. It is wonderful, homey, and cozy.

One of my favorite decorations to put up was the beautiful nativity set my Mother-in-Law gave me last year. It is beautiful and helps us to remember the true meaning of the season.

Lastly, Luke finished up his first semester of grad school! He took his last final today and he is officially done for the year (2009, that is). He is asleep on the couch next to me right now. Exhausted from all the hard work he did in preparation for his finals.

We have had a great month so far and we are looking forward to celebrating Christmas with family next week!
