Secret Santa

I participated in my first Secret Santa through blogging and it was sooo much fun!

My present came from the lovely Ashley :)

Ashley are you psychic? These goodies are all me and I love all of them!!!! I have been wanting to buy a new note pad because I can never find one when I need to jot something down! Thank you so much for my gifts :)

I got to play Secret Santa to Mae. Make sure to visit her page to see what I sent her!

I hope all of you have a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS. Since I will be leaving for Ohio tomorrow I will be MIA for a week or two :)

It has been awhile!

Sorry for my absence in the blogging world the past couple of weeks! We did not think we were going to be able to fly back to Ohio for the holidays this year but ticket prices finally went down :) I have just been so busy shopping and making gifts that I haven't had time for anything else it seems!

Tomorrow night we leave for Ohio, which is where the hubby is from. He has such a huge family so we are very excited to see everyone! He has 3 brothers and 1 sister, I was the only child so spending Christmas with a big family is so much fun for me now that I am older. The love that family has for each other is amazing, I don't think any of them have ever fought or said anything negative about each other in their whole life and I LOVE that. It doesn't hurt that it might be a WHITE Christmas this year as well. Sometimes getting away from the hustle and bustle of this big city is all we need.

I wanted to share with y'all some of the presents I made for my friends :)

 This is for my BFF if you couldn't tell ;) I cut the states and the quote out using my handy Silhouette machine.

 Now I am obsessed with monogrammed EVERYTHING! Does anyone else love it as much as I do?

So California has been having rain the past couple of weeks, I am not complaining because rain brings snow to our local mountains. We drove up to Mt. High for the day yesterday for our first newlywed snowboarding session. The conditions were perfect! Thank you mother nature. But I did have a pretty bad fall towards the end yesterday so getting out of bed today was a little rough!

Our Wedding Video

We have been looking forward to this day for almost 3 months, our video is finally done!

Turkey Day Recap

I still can't wrap my head around it being December already! The older we get it seems the years start flying by. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving, from what I have read and seen on Instagram it looks like y'all did! Mine was relaxing and stress free for once. My mom had all the food ready pretty early, which is a first! We ate, we talked, mom took and nap, and we watched a movie with my dad. After we got back to our place we went for a walk to the beach and played Cards Against Humanity with our neighbors. (I won) Here are some pics from turkey day!

 I can't believe I made that cornucopia, it was super easy :)

I also made cranberry sauce in the crockpot and pumpkin cheese cake bars. They both came out amazing and I highly recommend trying them! Here are the recipes for the sauce and the bars.
