can I just say I love my new job

Yes it's true. I love it. It pays good, the hours are good, my coworkers are awesome and the work is actually kinda fun. PLUS, yesterday we had an awesome work party. We played charades, had a white elephant gift exchange (sorta), ate delicious food, and played Rock Band! This all went on for about 4 hours and I got payed for all of it. It was WONDERFUL! And Cory got to come and join in on the fun as well. Right now our house is a mess and we have finals to study for but I don't care. I love my husband and I had a great day yesterday with him and life is fabulous.

Cory and I bought a Christmas Tree!! ....yes it's fake but real trees are SO expensive in Utah. But it's ours and we won't have to buy another one for a while especially since we'll probably go home for Christmas for the next few years and we don't have any kids so there's not a huge point to dealing with a live tree at this point in our lives...whew long sentence, sorry. Anyway, Cory and I had a blast last Monday putting up the tree and decorating it and getting out our nativity sets and stockings to put out and generally putting off big assignments we had due last week and this week, which we are suffering for now (Cory had to stay up til 5:30 am last Friday to finish one of his, it was miserable and yet highly entertaining at the same time). Here's some pictures for your holiday cheer.

And yes, I made that star out of wire garland. We're cheap like that.
