Here is your fair warning.. this post is FULL of pictures!

First up a few Christmas decor pics!

My Tree

Mom's Christmas Tree-- We've discovered Deco-Mesh!

This is how Miley feels about Christmas Cheer! :)
Now, several of you were wondering about my outfit I splurged on for my date night. Unfortunately I don't have a picture of me or us from the actual date, but I did find pics online of what I wore. I really need to not be so embarrassed to have strangers take my picture but I just can't do it! :)

The Dress: Jessica Simpson $98, found at Ross for $29.99

The Shoes: Rack Room Shoes $44.99 on sale for $39.00
The Accessories: Purse- Talbots (I've had it for years) Earrings: Forever 21 Bracelet: Borrowed from my friend Lisa who said she got it in Newport, RI Ring: Mom found it at Merle Norman $3.99

Well Saturday I went to Charlotte, NC to the Samaritan's Purse warehouse and helped pack Operation Christmas Child Shoe boxes! I messed up my mani and stood on my feet from noon until 6pm but it was worth it! So much fun to look through all the boxes, make sure they had what they needed, add some more if need and send it on to bless a child in another country. It's not about what's in the box because eventually what's in the box will run out, be lost, or break, but the message of the box is Christ's love for everyone and that it will never run out, be lost or break. What a wonderful thought! Here are a few pictures!
The Warehouse: there were probably 500 workers in there yesterday!

Love this box! The note says: "This is me. (Hand drawn picture) I hope you like my gift!"
Our group!
Sunday I went with my parents and the potential new relationship interest to see a local churches Christmas program! It was very good, but alas I have no pictures of it. I have no pictures of me and the new interest from this really great weekend with him. Ooops. I'm probably going to regret that. :/ My parents seemed to like him but I haven't heard a final verdict yet! :)

I hope you all have a fabulous Monday and a great week! :)

Much Love! <3
