Christmas at Moratayas

Well since I'm the only girl at my work and NO ONE appreciates Christmas time, I've taken it upon myself to bring some Holiday Cheer to the office. I had limited supplies so it is somewhat ghetto but I LOVE it. I made a christmas tree out of candy canes by my desk. I got a twig for a tree and put up blinking lights around or schedule. I'm not sure my boss likes my festive nature but oh well. I did him a favor and turned down my "LOUD JINGLE BELL CRAP".

christmas fun...

So Matt and I set up the tree yesterday. It's obnoxiously decorated just the way we like it. I had a blast making all the ornaments. I just wish I would have made more. I'll post pics when I download them. On a side note...I realized i'm out of touch with what little kids like these days. I tried shopping for my SEVEN nieces and nephews and have NO clue what to get them all. So any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanksgiving

Well we've had an awesome thanksgiving so far. Here's our updated pics of the day. Oh and My dressing pretty much rocks the socks off of Matt's "turkey".

My plan ROCKED

So I made the tator tot casserole and it was hit. In return we got to make "crafts" all weekend. WHo wouldn't love my life?? OH and Michael and I totally won at making a Santa Clause over Matt and Shawna's Mrs. Clause.

What day is today you ask.....

Well Today is the annual paper-snowflakes-for-Christmas inventory day. This is where I count all of my snowflakes and then see how many more I need for this year. I think I'm going all out this year so I'm going to start cutting them out this weekend. I also try to get Matt to help me with this production. He refuses...tells me I'm crazy...and goes to the garage. But that will not stop me from trying to intice him. I have a plan this time. I'm going make tater tot casserole...and tell him if he helps he can eat it. I think it's a great plan. We'll see how it turns out.

transformation...

Finally complete. The "room" is done. I could not be happier. Our house in no longer a construction zone. And the room looks awesome. It is 100% tacky, obnoxious and girly. My ideas worked perfectly. SO the picture is of the main wall. But there is more shelving and randomness scattered throughout. I LOVE IT!!!!

6 months

Even though matt doesn't believe in 6 month anniversaries...I do. We got married 6 months ago to the day. I know it hasn't been very long but it seems like yesterday. When I hear my friends talk about being married for 5 or 6 years I think...wow...I can't wait. And it seems like forever. But 6 months has flown by so I bet 5 years comes before I know it.
