Christmas Time :)

We got bored this holiday break so on Monday we decided to get a real Christmas tree.  We ran to the forest service got a permit and headed up the mountain to cut down a tree.  It is now hung from my apartment ceiling. Yes hung as in not touching the ground hanging from a rope :)

 Sam and I as Gingerbread people thanks to my roommate Cassie. They were oh so yummy! We started with the heads lol.

 Sam trying to hang our christmas tree from the ceiling...yes we hung it from the ceiling :)

 Apparently hanging a Christmas tree from the ceiling isn't as easy as it sounds lol. Oh how I love Sam!

The tree finally hung and decorated :) we even have presents :)

Freedom!!!!!!!!!

Finals are almost over for Sam and I.  We are in need of this break...we need sleep hahaha.  With finals out of our way we can more fully accomplish the wedding plans :)
Today I took Sam on a date, it was so fun to have a date night with him :)  We will definately have to have more date nights.

Count down until the merger :)

 My roommates and I made a paper chain counting down the days til the merger :)

Engagement :)

The story of our engagement is....
We got up supper early to go see the sunrise at Lake Navajo.  While at the overlook Sam knelt down, in the snow, and pulled out a ring pop :)  I loved it!!!! We then came back to town and chose out, in Sam's words a "non-water soluble", ring.
