1/2 year Anniversary!

Goodness! December is just flying by and I'm not being very diligent about posting! I'll try to do better!

Yay! Kenny and I celebrated our half of a year Wedding Anniversary yesterday! We had a really fun day :) We went to church in the morning and they had some of the most beautiful Christmas Carols. I just get chills to hear the whole congregation singing together and it makes the songs extra special when I really think about what the words mean...

"Glory to the new born king"...."Round yon virgin mother and child"...."Joyful all ye nations rise, join the TRIUMPH of the skies" WOW!

After church we got a little extra Christmas shopping done. Probably doesn't sound like a fun way to spend your anniversary, but we just wanted to be together, whatever we're doing. It was such a nice day outside, nearly seventy degrees, perfect time for shopping.

We knew a cold front was supposed to be blowing in any moment, but we decided to get bundled up and go downtown to see the Crystal Bridge Botanical Gardens Sunday evening. Boy were we glad we bundled up! A bitter cold wind was blowing in and the temperature dropped down to about twenty-two degrees! We parked about a block away from the gardens and rushed over to get inside.
The gardens were all lit up with Christmas lights and there was Christmas music playing. So pretty! The place was pretty packed, I think a lot of other people must have had the same idea for a Sunday night outing. So, we didn't get to dwadle much, but it was still a fun date. We walked outside and saw ALL the lights out there until our noses were about to freeze off *grins* and then we headed back to the car.

We spent the rest of the evening snuggled up on the couch watching Christmas movies! :)
