Winter?

The weather outside today is certainly NOT frightful... It's 70 degrees and kind of humid!  In mid-December?  Whaaaaat???  SUCH weird weather. We had some cold weather last week and the week before, so it has felt kinda like winter, but the last few days have been incredibly warm. So, we've been enjoying it and trying to spend a lot of time outside!  We ate breakfast in our screened patio room this morning, and we saw a few deer walking through our yard!  Guinness was very intrigued by them, but he didn't bark or anything.

Deer!!!  (it reminded me of "Squirrel!" in the movie Up)

We have had lots of fun decorating for Christmas!!  We decorated right after Thanksgiving was over, because we wanted as much time as possible to enjoy it while we were home.  I finally took some pictures of all of our decorations, so I'll post some here!!  

Here's our tree!  We have a Bumble as our tree-topper.

Here's a cool octopus ornament I got when we went to SF right before our wedding in June!  And then a Capitol Reef National Park ornament from our honeymoon. 

A few awesome ornaments we bought this year (Heat Miser and Snow Miser!!)

A pretty Bryce Canyon ornament from our honeymoon! 

Bumble!! We love that guy...

A fun "Happily Ever After" ornament that my parents got for us! It says 2015 on the back :)  

A fun pillow I picked out!! 

And a fun pillow that McGee picked out!!!  

Our fireplace mantel! We bought some really heavy-duty (they're iron!) stocking holders this year! Mine is the snowman with the tree stocking, and McGee's is the santa holder with the snowman stocking. And that is a light-up Bumble (we might be obsessed with him...). 

Some cute little birds, and a cool Christmas mason jar decoration that Lindsey made me!

A few random Christmas deocrations

Guinness didn't know what to think about the lights... He was half curious and half scared.

Here Guinness is looking out our front window! He loves to look out our window... 

Here's the windows above our garage! We have a candle decoration in one, and a Santa in the other

Here's a close-up of the Santa deocration! 

And here's the whole house! McGee did a GREAT job of hanging the lights!! They go all the way around our house, so you can see them from the road that leads to our house. 

That's most of our decorations!!  I can't believe Christmas is almost here!! I hope you're all doing really well and feeling excited for the holiday season!!
