Married Bliss....

Today marks my seventh month anniversary of married bliss.  I cannot believe how fast the time has gone.   It seems like just the other day we were coming home from our honeymoon and trying to get all the wedding gifts organized in our home.  Our lives have changed so much since we were married.  Everything has fallen in place so nicely.  We both have successful jobs, a great house, fantastic families...what more could you ask for!?!  We are truly blessed.  I cannot wait to spend our first Christmas together.  We will be making our own Christmas feast and celebrating Christmas in our home for the first time.  It is so exciting to be "grown up" and have our own traditions to start.  My husband is so excited about exchanging gifts...he can barely stand to wait till Saturday.  So stay posted to find out how everything turns out.  In case I do not blog again before Christmas, I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

XOXO,

Thanksgiving at the Walker's

I know it has been a few weeks since Thanksgiving but I still had to share our first Thanksgiving asd husband and wife.  We decided to stay home for our very first Thanksgiving and make our own feast.  It was so much fun!  I LOVED it!  We fixed all of our holiday favorites like cornbread stuffing, mac n' cheese, sweet potato casserole, fried corn, green beans, and of course some turkey.  I would say the best part of getting our meal ready was watching Matt try to pull the insides out of the turkey.  It was hilarious!  He was practically gagging doing it.  Overall, we stuffed our faces and relaxed on the couch.

  We left Thanksgiving night to surprise my parents.  They thought we were not coming home until Friday afternoon.  So we arrived at the farm right after dinner and all of the family was standing around in the kitchen cleaning and talking.  We walked in the door and I said "knock knock anyone home?"  and a unison of "AWWWWWWWWWWWWW" went throughout the kitchen.  It was absolutely fantastic.  It just doesn't truly seems like the holidays until you are with family.  It it the best part!  We are so thankful for all of the wonderful family that are a part of our lives.  We couldn't ask for more!

XOXO,
