This is our first Christmas as the Smith family! I am so excited to spend the holidays with my new husband! Together we bought a new Christmas tree and fluffed it. Then I added ornaments and decorated our apartment while he hung lights outside on our balcony. I am so blessed that he enjoys decorating for Christmas! I know he will make an amazing father and I cannot wait to decorate for the holidays with our children one day!
We went with a winter wonderland theme! We have lots of snowflakes and silver, baby blue, and white ornaments! These pictures give you a little taste of what our home looks like this holiday season! Merry Christmas!
Our adorable stockings, tree skirt, and pillow were made by Kristy Hamilton at The SewCute. You can check out their online store at www.thesewcutestore.com

Aggie Football
Greg's grandparents have 8 season tickets to Texas A&M football games. We love spending time with Granny and Granddad and we are so lucky that they invite us to the games! Here are some of my favorite pictures from the 2009 season!
Lamb's Rest Inn
Last year Greg and I began a tradition of visiting a Bed & Breakfast in historic Gruene, Texas during the fall. We go to New Braunfels every summer with my family for Schlitterbahn and to float the river, but the river is so beautiful when the leaves change colors. Its nice to relax near the river and enjoy time with each other.
This year we arrived early Friday evening and relaxed in our room for a little while. Last year Greg surprised me with keepsake wine glasses and a bottle of champagne upon our arrival. So this year we packed our wine glasses and a bottle of champagne that I had won on our honeymoon. We toasted to our marriage! And if you did not know, we LOVE being married to each other!
Later that evening we went to eat at the Gristmill River Restaurant. The Gristmill is an old cotton gin that overlooks the Guadalupe River. We love their chicken fried steak! After dinner we went to Gruene Hall, the oldest dance hall in Texas, for a Robert Earl Keen concert. I have to admit I didn't know many of his songs, but I enjoyed watching Greg sing along!
Saturday we had a relaxing couple's massage! Our massages felt so wonderful! That afternoon we went into Gruene for some shopping and to walk along the beautiful river! And then we watched the Aggie football game at a local bar. Sunday we relaxed until check out time, went to see Canyon Lake, and then went to the outlet mall in San Marcos.
It was an amazing weekend! I am already looking forward to next year! I love taking trips with my sweet husband! When we are old and still head over heels in love, we will have so many wonderful memories! I love you Greg!

Pumpkin Carving
Greg and I carved Aggie pumkins for Halloween! Is there any other way to do it?! They turned out so cute and we had a blast spending the evening together! Even Sammie and Sadie liked the pumpkins.
