Christmas in Omaha.

Mark finally got done with his Finals, one everyday for the whole week.  My husband is a genius, I never knew.  Straight A's!  Since Mark will be flying back to Utah on the 20th and I'll be flying back on the 22nd because of work, we decided to do our little Christmas here.  We didn't want to send all our presents to Utah, just a few.  We went out to eat on "Christmas Eve night", came back home and watched the classic Home Alone.  Then we woke up to a tree full of presents.  We are so spoiled.

 Once upon a time I told myself I would never get a fake tree, but it's practical when you'll be gone for two weeks of Christmas break.

We really are very fortunate. Thank you parents for the money to buy these great gifts!

The aftermath, who would have thought two people could be so destructive.

We love our Apartment it was great being able to put all of our decorations up.  This was the only time we spent a lot of time in this room. 

We both haven't been this excited for Christmas in years.  We can't wait to go home and see our families, five months is a long time.  Bring on December 20th and 22nd!
