it's beginnng to look a lot like christmas

Today we started the day at Bakery Nouveau-the best way to begin your day! I seriously do not think there is anything better to eat on earth than their twice baked chocolate croissants accompanied by their hot cocoa. Yes, I basically had dessert for breakfast.

Then we headed to the tree lot to get Juliet's first Christmas tree! I debated about starting a tradition of chopping down our own tree, but in this case instant gratification won out. B picked up one grand Noble Fir and we were sold. Seriously the quickest tree picking ever! B said now he isn't sure how to improve for next year. (Every year he likes to get better and better at picking trees, getting them in the stand, etc.)

We decorated at home while listening to Christmas music and now our house smells so good. Juliet loves admiring the Christmas lights. Definitely her mother's daughter.

For dinner we headed to Metropolitan Market to buy all the fixings for Thanksgiving leftovers. It might have been the best turkey dinner ever. We decided to buy Thanksgiving leftovers every year we are in Seattle. Once J was snuggling in her bed dreaming of sugar plum fairies we watched Love Actually, one of our favorite Christmas movies. It really doesn't get much better than this.
