Merry Christmas!

I would just like to say how amazing my husband is. (:

Last night, I was at work at the Disney Store, closing, when little did I know, my fantastic husband was busy all over town and all over the apartment making sure that my Christmas was beautiful. Let me explain.

Our apartment really REALLY needed some help--reorganizing, cleaning, that kind of thing. We also had no Christmas Tree yet! Horror of horrors! We also had NO EGGNOG! What is a Christmas without eggnog?! So. Last night, while I was at work, even though he hates cleaning, he cleaned and reorganized the entire apartment, bought a little five-foot tree, lights, and set it up, complete with two little birds at the top instead of a star. He then proceeded to put the first gift under the tree, for me, and I came home to a beautifully clean apartment and a little Christmas tree lit with little white twinkly lights in the corner. Fantastic!

Then! As if that wasn't enough. He knows it's tradition for my family to watch "It's A Wonderful Life" and drink eggnog and listen to Christmas music and decorate the tree, all at the same time, and so he got eggnog (and ginger ale for me, because I'm sick), and ornaments, and "It's A Wonderful Life" he put in the movie player, and then he turned on Christmas music! All today. The best. Nicholas hates eggnog, so I drank a little, and we decorated our first Christmas Tree together. (:

I'm so happy to be married to this man, Nicholas Randall Dertinger. (:

Seriously. So happy.
