I also put together this little basket of cinnamon-scented pinecones to go on our coffee table to make it more festive! I'm very proud of it. And it smells delish!
So it has been oddly warm here lately (like 50-55 degrees) until we woke up one morning last week and there was snow everywhere! And it's been freezing ever since. This is now the view out our back window...snowy and constructiony. The mountains are pretty though!
So finals week was crazy. I had 2 scheduled finals, one on Wednsday at 2:30 and one on Thursday at 7 am!! And then I took one on Friday at like 8 pm. Billy took one on Thursday (and got a 97% on it!!!!) and 2 on Friday. It was a crazy week of studying for sure. To add on to it, one of the girls I visit teach had her baby! So me and my companion wanted to bring her dinner. I've never made dinner for anyone besides Billy before, so I was very nervous. But it turned out great! I felt like a real Relief Society woman! I'm really proud of it! My little dinner all ready to go...
So on Friday after finals, me and Billy were very relieved and stayed up late watching The Office, just what I had been waiting weeks to do :) And on Saturday we planned the whole day full of fun things! First, we slept in. Then, I went running and Billy cleaned the house :) I helped too a little! Then I made waffles and we watched Star Wars. Then we finally showered and everything and were ready for the day by 3 pm! Best kind of day. Then we went to the Dinosaur Museum up at Thanksgiving point! We've both wanted to go for a long time, so it was super fun to finally get to go.
Waiting for the 3-D movie "Sea-Rex" to start...
Billy and the chest/part of neck of a Supersaurus (I think)! It's huge.T-rexes fighting...
Billy and his little buddy
Their Christmas tree had little oragomi dinosaurs all over it!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO CUTE!!! I want that tree.
After the museum we went to Nordstrom Rack, then to dinner at Sweet Tomatoes aka Souplantation! It was delish and made us both very happy. The blueberry muffins are seriously the best thing ever. I need the recipie. Then we went to Matt's house for a game/movie night, which was way fun as always! We played Uno and POUNCE! Love that game. Then we watched Inception. It was more confusing the 2nd time.
Today it's been cold and rainy all day, which I love on Sundays :) Before this I sewed 4 buttons back on my work pants! I'm such a little seamstress.
OH me and Billy have gotten a few presents for each other, and they have just been sitting under the tree. Impatience finally got to us and we decided that we would just open 1 present each per day...and they're all gone now :) We knew we weren't going to be in UT for Christmas anyways, so we had to open them sometime before we left, might as well be now!
I got Bill 2 shirts and Star Wars 4, 5, 6 on DVD and Bill has gotten me a cute little silver flower necklace, a scripture case and a pair of vans! What a great pre-Christmas Christmas!
Well, that's all I can think of that's happened lately. We go home to San Diego on Wednesday for Christmas and then to Arizona for after Christmas fun and New Years! We are way excited! Ok bye!
