Let the Christmas-ing Begin!




We started the Christmas-ing extra early this year, as Atticus and I were unsure whether we would be together for Christmas and wanted to do some Christmassy things together!

We decided to make some Christmas cookies with my mom, her girlfriend Shannon, and her son Beckett to get into the spirit of things. It so happened that it was Beckett's birthday and he was pretty excited to be baking cookies as a part of his birthday festivities! 

We used this Cut Out Sugar Cookies recipe from Betty Crocker. They were super easy to make and taste even better than "traditional" sugar cookies.

Frosting!

Atticus and I also went to pick out our first Christmas tree together. We went to the only working farm in Boston, called Allandale Farm

 We also put up all of my Christmas decorations and decked my apartment out in lights :) By the time he left, we were fully into the Christmas season... about three weeks early!
