It’s
Christmas time! December is literally
the best month of the year. This
December is especially great for a few reasons.
Simon and I are going to Bremen, German for a few days. It was his last area on his mission and I can’t
wait to see where he served. We will
also get to see the Christmas markets there.
My parents are coming!!!!!!!!!! I
have been counting down for the last two months. They arrive on the 22nd and will
stay until Jan. 1st. We get
to focus on the Savior, family, friends, giving and all those wonderful things
we should try to do the whole year! I
could go on, but will stop there. At the
end of November the city of Chester has a an evening where they turn on all the
Christmas lights in the city center, have a parade, and the Christmas market
stalls open. Simon and I went and it was
so crowded, but it was a fun evening.

and I went out and bought all of our Christmas decorations this past Friday. One of the members in our ward was nice
enough to let us borrow an extra fake tree she had. Here are some pictures:

Also, Christmas is not complete without an advent calendar to count down the days. These chocolate ones are everywhere. They have tons of different kinds. We opted for Cadbury!
Yum
Also, our tradition every year is to watch Elf after we set up all the Christmas decorations. Elf is my favorite Christmas movie of all time.
Best. Movie. Ever.
This is on my bucket list
