So.... As you know we are in the middle of selling are cute town home. We had everything all worked out and we were all ready to close sometime at the end of this week. Well today as I was cooking dinner Riley got a call and we found out that the final closing day ( I won't set myself up this time) will be the 7th of December. When Riley got off the phone the first thing he told me was... You are not going to like this. He told me the news and I started crying. I am not one for tears but with all the stress and everything else I finally had a melt down. I started telling Riley that I HATE THIS and I am SO DONE!!!! All I want to do is decorate my house for Christmas but I can't do that because we are moving. And what is the point of decorating everything when we will have to take it all done in a week. . . . . POOR POOR ME, RIGHT?... Don't worry now that I have calmed down I have relived that I am crazy and that there are other people with way bigger fish to fry... But it was all in the moments so give me a brake. :) So Riley and I talked and we came to realize that this is really for the best and that our prayers have been answered. Maybe not in the way that we had planned but I will take an answered prayer any day of the week. :) Soooo after dinner sure enough I go upstairs and Riley is getting the christmas tree ready to take downstairs so that we can set it up. I tell him no we really don't have to do that.... He insisted.... so the next thing I know are living room is all decorated and to top it all of we even had the "Festive of trees" scentsy burning and christmas music was playing..
The point of this story is .......... My Husband Rocks for letting me have christmas in our house when we will have to take it down in less than 2 weeks. Oh well... If it helps us get into the christmas spirit then so be it!!!!!!! Let Christmas begin. Thanks for making me happy Riley Woods. I love you.
P.S. Did I mention we saw the lights at temple square while walking to the Jazz Game.... SO BEAUTIFUL!!! I can't wait to go and see them all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some places are Herriman, Lehi, South Jordan......And pretty much everywhere. Wish us luck! I will keep the you all updated. Yes when I say all I am talking about the 5 people that read my blog.
