It's almost CHRISTMAS!!!!

I am SO excited for Christmas! I think it might just be my favorite holiday. We leave in just a few hours to see my family in Orem and I can't wait! So my little apartment has been decorated all Christmasie since Dec. 1st (I had to restrain myself from decorating before then) but I'm really bad at blogging so at least you get pictures before christmas day! The good thing about having a little apartment is you don't need very much stuff and it looks like you have tons of decorations! I planned it that way.

The kitchen. (just incase you couldn't tell)


Our teeny tiny tree. I think it is pretyt cute. And it makes the presents look so big!

I took this just this morning. I can't believe how big the haul is under there. I am actually really surprised. We are very blessed.

I hope everyone has the Merriest Christmas ever!

Gingerbread!

Ever since I can remember my grandma Hicken has made gingerbread houses for the grandkids to decorate. On graduation she brought my gingerbread house for me to decorate because it just can't be Christmas with out my little house! So here it is!

The before.

Proof that Rusty actually helped out! What a good little helper!

Tada!

The after. That's all.

It's done!:)

Look they painted it! I called the next day and they they said "oh, you're next on my list! we'll be there tomorrow!" (probably because I called them every other day for a week)It still took them a week from start to finish to get it done but now it's normal. Anyway, just for all of you who were sitting at the edge of your seats wondering if it ever happened here you go.

The awesomeness that is USU housing

This is my cow spot wall. There used to be a big sliding glass window where this wonderful window and door are but clear back in the beginning of August housing replaced it to help with heating costs in the winter because it gets a little bit cold here in logan, which is wonderful because I love it when people want to help me save money. Unfortunately it has been oh almsot 2 months and it still hasn't been painted! They said that it would be done two weeks ago but I think they forgot. Ohwell, I'm sure that when they DO paint it then it will be the coolest thing ever. I think I'll call and bug them again tomorrow....
