{ Overdue Glimpse of My Weekend }

Image
I meant to blog yesterday but I got too excited about my new 27" iMac at work that I didn't get the chance to update my blog. Over the weekend, I took a trip up to Williamsburg, Va with few girls for some outlet shopping, eating out and Christmas Town at Bush Gardens. It was so nice to just get out of town even though it was short, it was still sweet. Us girls at Art Cafe 26. The restaurant looks like an art gallery First time having European food, and it was pretty de-lish. Austrian Goulash w/homemade Spaetzle Homemade Canneloni w/Butternut squash Goat Cheese & Basil-Pesto Small desert Variations Spicy Hungarian Goulash Soup Beef, Sausage & Potato Such a great place to dine, plus the owner is so sweet and nice that we took a picture with her. I believe she have 5 daughters so she told her customers that we are her new 5 daughters :) Went outlet shopping and all I got was this hat from Gap. I couldn't handle the extremely long lines.

{ Our First Family Tradition }

I still can not believe that Christmas is just next week! This year we thought it would be fun to start up a family tradition by exchanging ornaments, next year when baby K is born, she can join us also. My gift to hubby:: it says Our Family. Together is a wonderful place to be. Hubby's gift to me, snowflake ornament and he said the crystal represents our baby girl :) Both hanging nicely on our tree ^_^ We didn't forget our baby girl's gift, which she can open next year What are your family traditions?

Only 20 more days until Christmas!!!!! Christmas is my favorite time of the year so I like to get into the spirit by decorating the house with cute lil fun christmas decor. I took some small unwanted boxes and a book and wrapped it up for a for a nice lil touch for our expedit bookcase. {after: I can save it for next year for decor too!} {sitting nicely on the bookcase} I got some artificial berries to add a pop of colors to the gold branches Our entry way with a pop of green ornaments I went to Michaels over the weekend and got some create your own ornaments too. These were extremely fun to decorate and pretty easy too! Michaels is having 50% on most of their Christmas Decor so it was also a cheap lil project. I cant wait for our baby girl to be born so she can join me with all these fun projects during the holidays!! Oh and lil baby updates: We ordered our stroller and our dogs thinks that it's theirs. Miko (chihuahua) jumped on it like it was for him

Yeah that didn't happen, we slept in until 10am..but we did manage to go Christmas Tree shopping the next day and found a nice black Christmas tree. That's right..black!! o_0 Surprisingly our friends and hubby picked it out and I was really skeptical at first, but now..lovinggg it! Thanks to my friend, Nhi Ha for helping me decorate and cooking for me that night too :D Theme:: Gold, Silver and Blue Happy Thursday everyone, boy time really goes by quick, I cant believe Thanksgiving was just last Thursday, and Christmas is just around the corner!
