The Holidays are coming!

My favorite time of year is Halloween to New Year's. I love all the holidays in between, but especially love the Christmas shopping season. I love all the lights people put on their houses, the way stores decorate for the holidays, and my all time favorite- 24/7 Christmas music! I always feel so at peace this time of year and really enjoy getting together with family and friends.

Tomorrow night we're going to see the Transiberian Orchestra play. I know this is really going to put me in holiday mode! We are also hosting Thanksgiving holidays with Travis' family here in Atlanta. We haven't seen our families in a long time because of moving so much in the last 6 months, so we are really excited to see them and catch up. We still don't really have our own "place" so it's hard to begin real traditions, but it will still be fun to be able to spend the holidays in Atlanta.

So far we have planned my marathon on Thanksgiving Day (very excited about this!) and then probably a trip to the Georgia Aquarium. I've never been but have heard wonderful things about it. I'm really excited to spend time with Trina! I love having a sister in law that I get along with. She's going to actually stay in our apt. the whole time so I'm excited to catch up with her. We got a hotel for everyone else b/c let's be honest, our apt. is WAY bigger than NYC apt. but we still only have about 850 square feet!

The weather has been beautiful here and I've really enjoyed the "fall". I'm almost enjoying it more than I ever did in NYC b/c I actually have time in the afternoons to go outside.
