Christmas Decorations!

I am just now starting to take down Christmas decorations, because it has taken me this long to get up the energy to tackle it! I did a little more this year than the past few so I kind of hated to put everything away =(. Christmas always flies by, and I even put our decorations up really early this year (I think about a week before Thanksgiving)...I made the letters that spell out 'Peace' using letters and paint I got at Hobby Lobby super cheap. It was super easy, and I liked how they turned out so I am going to try and do something similar for Shelly's wedding using her color scheme. Maybe something with her soon-to-be last name spelled out somewhere in the reception room...Also in the picture is our super adorable puppy, Franklin. I am a little bit sick today, but I still managed to get a lot done around the apartment. I had to cancel plans with Annette because I felt so bad when I woke up, but I did feel better as the day went on. Hopefully we can reschedule for tomorrow because the plan is to see Bride Wars and I'm really looking forward to it =D. I am also excited because my sister is coming to visit in two weeks and we will be able to work on making a final plan for all of the wedding decor! (Since I am technically her 'planner' after all ;P) I am betting that the time will fly by and before we know it, May and her wedding will be here...that's always how it seems to go. I am also still trying to get my jaw surgery approved, so it is strange to think that by the time her wedding is here, I may have already had the surgery. That would be fabulous because I really want to get it over with, and then be able to get my braces off soon after (6 months or so, but still way sooner than I was expecting). I will try to not wait so long between posts next time, hopefully since the holidays are over it won't be so hard to find time...
