Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree

This last weekend Trevor and I went with his family to cut down christmas trees! We went up Parowan Canyon and luckily Trevor and I found the perfect one!  

This picture cracks me up... it totally looks like it could be in the movie Christmas Vacation

My Husband = Christmas Home Decorator

Trevor is definitely getting into the christmas mood this year. It all started with putting up the christmas tree, and then lead to various other items around the house (all his idea, WAY impressed)

Then one day, he started cutting off limbs from the stump of our christmas tree. I guess I didn't catch the vision at first... so Trevor just went to town and did the whole thing by himself. He is so awesome and these cute little snow men turned out so perfect!  

The finished product. Mr. and Mrs. Snowman. (guess who's is who's)

Mission Accomplished

I have such a happy place when I'm cooking in the kitchen, singing and dancing to music. It seems like the food always turns out better when you're listening to a good song. My usual song of choice is this (best ever, try it out), but now that it's Christmas time Trevor and I busted out Anne Murray and all of the other Christmas goods. So I have been WAY in the cooking mood lately with all of this fun music playing. 

Ever since I first started dating Trevor, I have love loved his mom's chicken noodle soup, and was determined to try making it someday. When we got married I was lucky enough to get the golden Satterthwaite family cook book.. (this may or may not be among some of the reasons I married Trevor).. so now I had my chance. It definitely doesn't compare with Kris and Julie's, but I totally did it!

Trevor was so cute and helped me out the whole time.

Then of course we had to finish it off with a game of rummy. Such a fun night!

I have a confession..

Okay so.... this story is completely ridiculous, but just go with it. 

Whenever Trevor and I play scrabble he sometimes (ALL the time) beats me. The first couple of times it was like, okay whatever Trev you're smart. But now it's a real problem. I have yet to beat him and it is causing great emotional stress. Lately, whenever we play I sometimes (ALL the time) end up in tears. Ridiculous I know. But how the heck would you feel if your husband was a genius and never let you win a game ever in your life and you feel like the dumb one in the relationship. The last game we played was especially bad (he beat me by 150 points) and I threatened to throw away the game. I may or may not have cried in my room a little.. when I got over myself I went to find Trevor and tell him I'm really not a drama queen and this is what I found....

I kind of like scrabble now.

i LOVE my husband!

I am the luckiest girl in the world to be Trevor's wife! We have been married 2 months today and they have been the happiest, most fun 2 months of my life. I have just been feeling so grateful for Trevor lately, so I wanted to write down some things I love about him.

He's my best friend

Trevor is SO good to me. I love how he is always trying to find ways to surprise me and he always comes up with the most fun dates.

 I love the faces Trevor pulls. He is always making me laugh and can always make a bad day turn into a good one. I love that we can be nerds together and have so much fun. 

I love it when I come home from work and find things like this laying around my house 

(read this ^ , it's good)

I love how sweet Trevor is with me. He has treated me like a queen from day one. He knows all about "5 minute shoes" and helps me out when I decide to wear them. 

I love how he will randomly start dancing with me. 

 I love how he trusts me with anything. (No... I had never cut hair before)

I love how he loves my family, and I especially love how he is my little brother's idol.

I love how he has little "trevor moments" and rips up a cashier check and we end up having to tape together hundreds of little pieces of paper.

I love how he likes to cook with me, (and sometimes he just does it for me!) 

I love how fun it is to travel with him. He is all about travel treats and he always makes the road trips seem a lot shorter than they really are.

I love how smart Trevor is and how if he puts his mind to something he will accomplish it. I love his strong testimony and that he was such a great missionary. I love how he pays so much attention to me and makes me feel like the most important thing in the world. 

Trevor is just the best. 

I love him so so much and I am so blessed to be sealed to him forever.
