Levi and I had to end our Thanksgiving holiday break a little early this year. Levi was scheduled to work Saturday morning so we had to come back up Friday night. I was a little sad that I had to leave Kanab early, and I think Levi could tell. (Apparently I'm not much of an actress.)
After Levi got off work, he came home and asked if I wanted a surprise. (Anyone who knows me, knows the answer to that question!) He made me close me eyes and drove me all over Ogden. I had no idea where we were. When I finally got to open my eyes we were.....
..... 2 blocks from our house.
Seriously. But the good news is that 2 blocks from our house is a Christmas tree lot!!! He drove me all over just to disorient me so I wouldn't guess where we were. So we picked out our tree, (A cute little one that fits in our apartment), picked up some Christmas tree necessities (stand, skirt, lights, ornaments, etc...) I had so much fun decorating for our first Christmas together! (I'm not sure how much fun Levi had... but he was a very good sport!)
Happy Holidays!!! Enjoy the pictures!
My lumberjack haulin' in our tree.
Setting it up in the stand. (We got it straight on the second try... that's gotta be a christmas tree stand record or something!)
Stringin' the lights.
Topping it off with the star.
The finished tree.
Add the nativity...
... and ta da!!! Christmas with the Fevs.
My favorite part about decorating for Christmas is the nativities, so I had to have pictures of both of them.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

Oh, who knew my lil bro could be so sweet and thoughtful! Our first tree was a nightmare... We never did get that thing straight!
I like your tree, but I LOVE the nativity, actually both of them (I know, I'm obsessed). The lights make it look so cool!
Oh, and props for getting the tree straight. That probably is a record!
Very cute! And good job on the tree stand. It's a good thing we've got little kids around, cause the words that I'm sure Mike would be using when putting ours together would not be pretty. He hates it. But he's nice enough to put it together for us every year. The first Christmas is so fun!
I just love your decorations - all of them! The tree, the nativities, and especially the stockings!! You rock! Merry Christmas!
Love you! Mom
