Christmas is Coming!

Wow, it's December 10th already!!  I have been soooo busy trying to finish up my last 2 weeks at my previous job, and starting my new job!!  Time has just been flying by.  My previous job gave me a HUGE project for my last two weeks of work, so I had a LOT of really long days trying to finish that. And I started my new job last Monday (so I had no break between the two jobs... haha), and it is going GREAT so far!!  I'm really liking the job and the people and the environment, and I think it's gonna be SUCH a great change for me.

Other than job stuff, we've been keeping busy with the holidays!! Thanksgiving was tons of fun - It was quite relaxing and the food was great. On December 1st we drove to Frederick, MD so I could drop off my work equipment (that was technically my last day of work)!  Kevin took the day off and drove there with me, and it was so nice to have him there for that last step of that horrible job.  While we were driving back home that evening, we decided to stop and buy our Christmas tree!!  That was such a fun way to end the day.  We were too tired to decorate it that night, but we got it in its stand and everything. 

That Saturday afternoon we went to see our friend Timmy's show!  He's in the Philadelphia Gay Men's Chorus, and they had a Christmas show that was AMAZING!!!  They were seriously SO talented and awesome.  They sang lots of classics and some newer songs too, and it really put us in the Christmas spirit!  The show was at this really cool theater in the city, and it was right near the Philadelphia Christmas Market!  So, we stopped by after the show and walked around for a bit.  It was soooo pretty and Christmassy! After that we caught the train to go back home!   
These amazing and hilarious dancers came out for a few songs!  This one was Jingle Bell Rock, and they did all of the choreography from Mean Girls.  It was FANTASTIC.  And you can see Timmy's face in this one!  If you see the dancer on the right, Timmy is JUST to the left of that guy's face. 

And this one was All I Want For Christmas Is You, and this guy's voice was SPECTACULAR.  Everyone's jaws dropped in the audience as soon as this guy started singing!!  Oh and the dancers were back for this one!!  They were super fun. 

There's Timmy!  He's like the 3rd row up, and the 2nd guy from the left? 

Timmy again!  He was so great! He's right in the middle of this one. 

City Hall looking beautiful for the Christmas Market!

The light show on the side of City Hall at the Christmas Market! They had fun music and everything.

That night we listened to some Christmas music (Bing Crosby... oh that voice), and decorated our Christmas tree!!  It was such a fun evening, and our tree is so pretty :) 
Our tree!  With Bumble on top!  

This weekend we had quite a snowy weekend!  December is kinda early for snow here!  I'll do a separate post in a day or two about this weekend!  It's been kind of amazing and so relaxing. I hope you're all doing really well, and having a great December so far!!
