'Tis the Season for buying gifts

...for myself?? Yup, you heard that right. I went out tonight in search of Christmas gifts...and walked out with a new winter coat and black flats for myself. Oops.


Will re-attempt Christmas shopping tomorrow. Fingers crossed it goes better than tonight.

Speaking of Christmas, Mr Jones and I realized the other night that Christmas is (much) sooner than later...as in 2 weeks away! We were so consumed with the wedding and the honeymoon, that this little fact completely slipped our minds. It's going to be an interesting 2 weeks as we scramble to get everything together in time for the holidays.

We did put up our Christmas wreath yesterday though. After all of the wedding DIY projects, we were feeling crafty so we headed over to Hobby Lobby and bought a plain wreath, gold pinecones, and some berries. I think we did a pretty good job...what do you think?

  1. The wreath is very cute. I like making homemade wreaths. It makes me feel like I've really done something myself to decorate my place...not just depended on the store to do it for me.
