Ready for the Holidays

Once again, I haven't blogged in a while so I have to catch up. A few weeks ago we went to Conway to get everything ready for our new apartment and we wanted to look at the one we were getting. We originally want a 2 bed, 1 bath because it was cheaper and it had a golf course view. If you know me very well, you know I'm a sucker for organization and LOTS of closest space. Well, we walked in our soon to be apartment and I was not very pleased. It was small and did not have near as much closet space as I was hoping for. Since my hubby is the only one with a job right now and he is paying all of our bills by himself (which I appreciate), I definitely couldn't complain. As we were walking out, the lady asked us why we didn't want the 2 bed, 2 bath and we told her that we thought it was too expensive so we didn't even look in to it. She then told us that it was only an $80 difference so we decided to just take a peak at one for kicks. Oh my goodness, it was HUGE and there were sooooo many closets. It felt like a small house because it was so large and had so much room in it and for just an $80 difference it was totally worth it. Bradley could tell that I was in love from all my excitement about the closets and porch haha. We were then in a predicament because he always tries to get me what I want and I kept telling him that it didn't matter to me which one we got because I couldn't help pay for it right now. So being the little nerd he is, he had to crunch the numbers in our Excel spreadsheet he has made for our money. After running the numbers 3 he finally decided that we could afford it and we would get the bigger one. I was sooooooo excited. Now it is Thanksgiving break for me and I get to spend my whole week off, packing and getting my study guides ready for finals. We are so excited to move we can't hardly wait.

It's only 31 days until Christmas...Christmas music is already being played on the radio, I see countless pictures on Instagram and Facebook of people putting up their Christmas trees and decorations and I am starting to get jealous. Christmas time is by far my favorite. It's pretty ridiculous how much I love it and how it automatically puts me in a good mood. I'm not getting all of my stuff out until we move and I'm able to actually put it up. Of course I have been all over Pinterest looking and new and fun decor ideas. I have found so many that I want to try. When I go to the doctor this week I will definitely be making a pit stop at Hobby Lobby to make my crafts. :) This will be our first Christmas married and I am so excited to spend time with him and come up with our own traditions. I have decided to try a silver and gold theme this year. I hope our tree will turn out pretty, but I've never used these colors before so we'll see.

I will post pictures when we get moved and all set up. Until then, have a Happy Thanksgiving!!!
