Christmas.

Oh Christmas.. I miss you already!

Jordan got an xbox Kinect, but had to go on a scavenger hunt to get it! :)

We were sure to bring it to the annual Greer family Christmas, where it was a hit!

We watched the kids open presents!

And oh yeah... it SNOWED! For the first time in my life (except for when I lived in Michigan) I experienced a white Christmas. It was pretty amazing!  

Check out how thick it was!

 

Family.

My poor family. They are probably so tired of me following them around with a giant lens in their faces. But look at them! You would take pictures of them too!

It's not a family Christmas without a good ole game of football! 

Merry Christmas!!

Dirty Santa

Why is stealing presents from people so much fun?

 

Sometimes the joy of unwrapping a present can be ruined by opening unwanted items, such as BOD spray (You know, the fragrance spray for men that practices false advertisement by placing cartoon shirtless men on the box implying "wear this and you'll look like this!"). If you haven't seen it, click here.

I tried to avoid buying the cheap $5.00 gift that no one wants and decided to get crafty (I also avoided the "funny" gift giving). I went to the thrift store and bought an old picture frame. I painted and stenciled it, and came out with this:

I kinda wanted to keep it when I finished. 

I ended up with a $5.00 gift card to Yogurt Mountain. I was happy with that. You know where to find me after church Sunday!

Hope every one has a VERY Merry Christmas!

A Very Merry Christmas

Christmas is our favorite time of year!

A time for decorating...

hanging stockings...

making our kitchen and bathroom  more festive

 making hot cocoa, apple cider, and peppermint bark

buying gifts for loved ones

can't forget a tree

and most importantly, a time to humble ourselves and celebrate Jesus, Emmanuel, God with us!

We wish you a Merry Christmas...

Merry Christmas from the Greers! We are all moved into our new house and have just begun decorating for Christmas! This is mine and Jordan's favorite time of the year, so we wanted to go all out (I'm telling you, my husband aspires to be Clark Griswold). Too bad we are just married, I'm still in school, we only have one income and 15 days left until Christmas or we would go all out! We did what we could!

It is now time to reveal the AFTER pictures of our house!!

 Like the black shutters?

I got all crafty and made our wreath all by myself!

Decorating our first tree!

Wall-E's first reaction to the tree was to pee on it..that was great..

Remember that pink carpet? You do? Oh, I don't. I blocked it out of mind.

Master bath! We love our vessel sinks!

Right when you walk in the front door.

Jordan said we had to include a picture of the lighting.

We kept the fireplace the same, but got rid of that ugly wallpaper. Our mantel is decorated for Christmas with a stocking for Jordan, one for me, and of course (until we have children) one for Wall-E.

One day we will start renovating the kitchen, we promise! :)
