December 2011

Jake and I spent our first married Christmas together

We just stuck around Utah

real laid back & real nice

Next year we might have to visit our families in California

I got home sick for the first time this year. Jake did great tho

I also started making Christmas crafts during the Holiday season

Our house is now filled w/personalized crafts. Not just for Christmas

Even though this is the first year Jake and I have been married

we've still shared many things together and I love that. It's been so nice to look back and reflect on the different things we've done, throughout these years, even though we weren't married to each other the whole time. Journal entries have definitely been fun too! I have a feeling 2012 will be great and that life only gets better from here!
