Almost Christmas

So, I have noticed that I am the worst blogger on the face of this earth. I think the last time I blogged was over a month ago. I guess it has been very difficult to find the time to sit down and write. The holidays are fast approaching. Only 2 days before Christmas day and I am so excited! Peter and I have a fun-filled week ahead of us. We both are working today then heading to Greensboro, NC till Thursday night. We will both be working on Friday as well and then my parents are coming in Friday afternoon for the rest of the weekend! My brother and dad have not seen our apartment since I moved so it will be exciting to show them. My dad is excited about a "vacation in Lynchburg". I say to that, "Dad, do you know what is in Lynchburg, VA???"---not really a whole lot.

Peter and I have grown to love Lynchburg and have also grown to love our road trips to close destinations. Charlottesville, VA is one of our favorite. They have a mall, not huge, but better than the one here and we always go to Boar's Head Inn to walk around and of course get couples massages. If you have never been to Boar's Head Inn for a massage you are missing out! Peter and I are looking into a trip to NYC in the Spring to get in some REAL shopping and bask in the business of the city. We both wish someday he would be a coach of a college team in NY and then we could be close enough to the city to accomodate our love for shopping. Peter would love to live in a busy city and I would have to agree with him. We are excited to see where God leads him in the coaching industry.

Peter and I opened each other's gifts this past weekend and also unwrapped the stockings. We have such a busy week with 2 different families so we decided to have a calm Christmas together before it all took place. We don't like to rush so we spread it over 2 days. We both decided we are bad at Christmas because we like to give gifts early and also after it is all over with. I have to say he got me some amazing gifts. I got a watch I have wanted for a long time, about 5 pairs of shoes (because I need more shoes:):), clothes, 2 Emily Giffin books, a winter coat, and some other office supplies. I am constantly writing things down because I am so visual so Peter got me a great notebook to do just that. Peter was the hardest to buy for. He put a few things on his 1st Christmas list about a month ago and then decided he no longer wanted any of those items. Then he changed it again to another set of items and decided that next day he didn't want those either. His 3rd Christmas list he put 1 item on that list. What is this item? Well...you will have to wait till Sunday to find out what I bought him for Christmas (we are going to surprise both of our parents when they come up on Sunday). We have been talking and planning for this for a while and the Lord worked it out perfectly for us. No, I am not pregnant and do not want to be for another 4-5 years so don't get your hopes up:)! More details to come later!

Anyway, I am off to start working now. Hope you all have a great Tuesday and also Merry Christmas!
