We Wish You a Merry Christmas

We spent Christmas Eve with DJ's family, went to midnight mass that night, and then went to my parent's house for Christmas day.  We also celebrated Christmas with the Klowaks at Aunt Nina's house the day after Christmas.  Since Christmas and New Year's fell during the week this year, we both had a lot of extra time off from work.  We took a trip out to Candy Cane Lane in West Allis and enjoyed a nice night out to eat and walking around downtown Milwaukee looking at Christmas lights.  New Year's Eve was pretty quiet for us this year!

Getting Ready

November was busy with work and school and getting ready for Baby Smith to arrive!  We spent a weekend getting the nursery and crib set up.  I've also started making some baby blankets and cross stitched projects.

Hannah is getting excited as well :)

Honeymoon and Trolls

This month DJ and I took a mini honeymoon/pre-baby vacation to Dodgeville, WI.  We stayed at the Don Q Inn where DJ and his family went a lot when they were little.  We had a great time walking around the town, going to local restaurants, and spending some much needed quality time together.  We also took a day to go to House on the Rock - a very unique place!

Baby Smith enjoyed the trip as well :)

Last weekend we went to the apple orchard and spent the rest of the day making everything we could think of with apples - apple bread, apple muffins, apple crisp, and carmel apples.  On Sunday we took a quick day trip to Mount Horeb with DJ's parents to see all of the trolls.

It's a Girl!

Here Comes the Bride

The day is finally here!  We had a wonderful wedding on August 16, 2015 with the ceremony St. Luke's Lutheran Church in Waukesha and celebrating afterwards at my parent's house in Germantown. Thank you to everyone who was able to share our special day with us!
