Merry Christmas!

As some of you know, I have to work on Christmas from 11-7, although I did have today (Christmas Eve) off, which was nice. David and I went to church today and our ward had a nice Christmas sacrament meeting with several speakers who told stories about their favorite Christmas memories. David and I were able to have a nice dinner together, which doesn't happen that much since I usually work until 9pm every night. David's brother Michael was here on Friday night and we went and saw the Christmas lights at the cactus garden by our house-there were a lot of lights. I forgot to bring my camera with me though, unfortunately. I did take a picture of our simple little Christmas tree though. Even though David didn't really want a tree I insisted that we get one, so I got a real one at a tree lot. I didn't have any ornaments, but I just bought some lights for it and made a little star to go on top. So it's a very simple tree but I like it. It's nice to have the pine tree smell too.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and gets everything they wanted! :)

New car

Ok, so we've actually had the car for about 3 weeks now, but I've been bad about doing regular posts. Anyway, we bought a new car after David sold his old car to his sister. It's a 2003 Toyota Corolla and we were able to get it for a pretty good deal. And when you buy a car from a private owner in Nevada, you don't have to pay taxes on it, so that was nice. I've been liking the keyless entry because I've never had a car before that has had that. Here are a couple of pictures of it (the guy we bought it from took these).
