Goodbye 2011....Hello 2012

As we are waiting patiently for midnight to ring in the New Year! I am looking back at the memories of 2011...and they were great, fun, rough, and hard....but we survived!

2011 memories from what i can remember....not in order:

- Thank god for another year of life for my husband, our friends, family and I....and to many more
- Our home got broken into but my husband and I got thur that, and it made us stronger!
- My dad has been gone for three years.
- My amazing husband celebrated another year of life...my grandma and mom celebrated another year with us as well...and I celebrated 25 years, and to many more.

- Spending time with my husband, our family, and friends....Priceless!!

These were the memories I had of 2011 and I had many more....they weren't prefect but spending it with my husband, friends, family...is what made these memories worth it and prefect!

Christmas tree/My favorite ornament

You know I have always help my mom decorate our Christmas tree with the colors she wanted, and for me to be able to do my own tree in my own place another year.... means I can go crazy(not to crazy) and do my own colors and put my favorite or any ornaments that I want. So my Christmas tree was set up on black Friday...that was the fun part was putting it up and decorating, the hard part is taking it down....which I will not think about that until it comes. So this year my Christmas tree is blue and silver, its my second year decorating, and I love having my own place to be able to what I want.... and starting my own family traditions with my husband! Here is a picture of our christmas tree and our favorite ornament......and this one means the most to us and that is:

This ornament I hold very close to my heart, 2008 was the first Christmas that we spend it as husband and wife....and three years later we are still going strong....and our love is amazing!!!

Our christmas tree

What is your favorite ornament? What color is your tree this year?
