Where has the time gone?

Whoo! Time has ben flying by lately! We have been so busy, barely anytime to think! I can't believe Christmas is this week! I am officially done with my first semester of Junior year! YEAH! I finished all my finals on Dec. 10, and I am pleased with all my grades! This last week I have been taking my winter mini class... Starbucks has been helping me through this class =) I have my midterm tomorrow, (wish me luck) and after that Im off till the 4th of Jan.

We can't wait to spend our first Christmas together as Mr. & Mrs. Campbell! We got all of our Christmas shopping done early, boy am I glad, all the malls and stores are madness right now! Our friends came over a couple of weekends ago, and us girls did a lot of our Christmas shopping then. After a long day of shopping we all came back to our place and I made apple cider and we played board games till really late! I love having our friends over and hanging out!

We celebrated celebrated Christmas at my Grandparents house last weekend, we got alot of goodies! I love having everyone come together and spending time with family!


My Grandpa
I love him so much!


My Dad came in from Amarillo,
and brought Caleb and I a nice Flat Screen TV for Christmas


My grandparents and all their grandkids!

After Christmas we went and saw The Christmas Carol in 3D with Caleb's parents, if you haven't seen it, I would recommend it! The 3D was really neat, we all really enjoyed it!


Our good friend Courtney graduated this weekend! Congrats Courtney! We went and celebrated with her friends and family at Salt Grass on Sat. had alot of fun getting together with them! Yesterday we CLEANED and CLEANED and CLEANED! We have kind of neglected the house during my finals week and my winter mini this last week, so we had a lot of work to do! I felt like I hadn't done laundry in a year! I can now say everything is spotless, even our cars (thanks to caleb) Tonight we made hot chocolate, pulled out the Christmas Cd's and went and looked at Christmas lights! =)

Christmas is in The Air =)

     So it's been awhile, We have been SO busy lately! I hope everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving! We sure did, it was different this year, now that we are married we have to make decisions about where we are celebrating it now, we got to see some of my family the night before Thanksgiving. It was a fun low key night, my Aunt and Uncle brought over a new game called The Last Word, we had a lot of fun playing it! We absolutely love playing games with our families, some of our favorite memories come from those nights! Actual Thanksgiving day we celebrated with his Family at his Aunt and Uncles house. His Aunt had a very nice meal and table for us! We really enjoy getting to spend time with family!

     Of Course, we got up and went shipping in the wee hours of the morning on Black Friday! There wasn't anything we were set out on getting this year for once. Usually there is always something that we are headed out to get. There is really nothing either of us are in just dier need of. We have been so blessed this year, God is so good to us. We did find a few things for some of the lucky people on our Christmas list this year though =) I love buying presents for people, I get so excited! I've already wrapped all of Caleb's gifts and it's SUPER hard for me not to tell him what they are! Luckily, he doesn't want to know or he probably would already have opened them if it were up to me!


    We had ALOT of fun putting up and decorating our first Christmas Tree! After a couple trips to Hobby Lobby (that is a dangerous place, I can't ever get out of there with just one thing!) we have it all decked out! I made some of my granny's Apple cider, put on some Christmas music, and we got to decorating. Here are a few pics from the big night =)


Before We Decorated

Apple Cider =)





Almost Done!



The Masterpiece =)



We dont have a fireplace so we had to make do!
Can you guess which one is mine?






     If you guessed the one on the left, you were correct! =) This last weekend Caleb and I took a little trip to Fort worth! We went to the Fort Worth botanical Gardens, it was so Beautiful, pictures just don't do it justice!




Caleb acting like he was falling in!








Beautiful Trees





     After the Botanical gardens we headed on over to The Kimball art Museum where they have Michael Angelo's first painting that he did when he was 12 years old! Wow, that was amazing, most adults I know can't paint a picture that detailed, and he did it at the ripe old age of 12! Im not a huge museum fan, but I did find that pretty interesting! After the Kimball we went to the The Modern another museum, it had a lot of newer art in there, if you cant tell by the name "modern" haha!

     After all that we were hungry, so what better place to go eat in Ft Worth than Joe T Garcia's? Yumm It was so good! Sunday we went to church, and the rest of the day was just a lazy day, love those roll around in your pajamas days! This week has been busy for us so far, its dead week for me which mean finals next week! So needless to say I'm swamped with school work! Caleb has been working hard this week, he is at actually at work tonight in a suite at the Stars game... If you can call that work! =) Well that is us in a nutshell for the last week, hopefully it wont be as long between this and my next post!

xoxo,
