I feel like the weekends keep flying by and I'm not okay with that. We did however make the most of these two days.
Saturday we got up bright and early to head off to Mesilla, NM. We ran a Turkey Trot 10k and had a blast. Besides the rain and freezing cold it was a great event.
After the run we headed home to warm up and relax. The rest of the day was spent grocery shopping and enjoying dinner at BJ's Brewhouse (if you have one near you it's a must, best pizza and strawberry mojitos haha).
We made no plans for Sunday because we were expecting some not so great weather. It was a great surprise to wake up to this:
It wasn't much but it was sure pretty to look at. Thanks to the weather we got into the Christmas spirit and decided to decorate:
I still can't believe Christmas is right around the corner, this year has flown by. Before we know it we will be ringing in 2014. We have a ton of events coming up for Kyle's work so it will be nice to stay occupied.
First though we get to enjoy a wonderful Thanksgiving this week with friends!
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
I love your banisters! I need to go get some garland.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks great, and lol at the dog/cat stockings!! I love that they're shaped like a fish and a bone. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your 10k! We don't have a BJ's near us but I do looooove strawberry mojitos!! Your house looks fantastic! Our tradition has always been to decorate the day after Thanksgiving so I've been bumming that Thanksgiving is sooooo late!!
ReplyDeleteHahahaa, both our dogs have that sweater; sooo cute! Love the decor :)
ReplyDeleteLove all the lights going up your staircase!
ReplyDeleteI love the lights on your staircase!
ReplyDeleteCute decorations! Y'all went all out!
ReplyDelete:) Thanks Hana!!! We had a blast decorating, this weekend we will tackle the outside.
DeleteYour decorations look great!! Also, how is it that you live in Texas and got snow but I live in Missouri and just got cold weather....no fair! :) Hehehe!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the lights on your banister! That is so cute. Maybe John will let me do something like that in the future?! haha a girl can always dream.
ReplyDeleteYour house looks great! I can't believe Christmas is so soon either-- I should probably start Christmas shopping!
ReplyDeleteThe lights on your banister look so pretty! I love having lights inside the house.
ReplyDeleteThank you!!! :) This is the first time we have had lights in the house other than the tree and I'm loving it.
DeleteYay! Christmas decorations!
ReplyDeleteI think we should have four day weeks and three day weekends. And I noticed that so many houses in the El Paso area have those decorative banisters (back when we thought we were moving to Bliss). They're so cool.
ReplyDeleteWe decorated yesterday too! I figured that, since I'm going to be gone Thanksgiving weekend, decorating now meant that I would come home to a festive house.
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous that your Christmas decor is up already!! As much as I don't like the cold, snow is pretty to look at for like a day. (: Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteLove all your Christmas decor! I'm forcing myself to wait another week and it is killing me inside! lol
ReplyDeleteYour house looks beautiful. I'll start decorating after Thanksgiving.
ReplyDeleteLove the decor!! Especially the lights on the staircase! and the pup in the sweater :)
ReplyDeleteI complained moving my car from the street to the driveway bc of the weather. YOU ran a 10k in it. THAT my friend is why you are superwoman!
ReplyDeleteobsessing over your banister railing going on and on for days!! Gorgeous!
Wow, is it as cold in Texas as it is here? We had the first dusting of hard snow today and temperatures around freezing all day long.
ReplyDeleteLOVE you holiday decoration! The staircase looks beautiful! And your mantle, so beautiful!
Have a great day!!
Your house looks adorable but my goodness your pup melted my heart! I love all of the photos and seeing all the fun things you do to make the most of your life! :)
ReplyDeleteI love this time of the year and looking at everyone's Christmas decorations! My husband says I can't put anything up until after Thanksgiving...that brat. I can't wait to get started this weekend. Love the sweater for the pup. So cute!
ReplyDeleteAww ... I can't wait to decorate this weekend!! Weeee.....

Glad you had a good run! snow already? we've had frost here and yesterday afternoon when we were at a restaurant, there was ice on the ground from someone's vehicle. Weird. I am gonna pull out my little fiber optic Christmas tree on Thanksgiving and put it on the music cabinet. That's a starter, bigger tree later. I love how you decorated! Stairways are fun but we don't have one, sigh! Take care!
ReplyDeleteWe have yet to even think about Christmas decorations. I just want to get through thanksgiving and family visits before I even think about how to decorate a baby proof tree :) haha
ReplyDeleteLove your decorations! I'm finally getting to mine this week!
