Our first Christmas tree

I love this holiday season and all the joy it brings. I am as happy as Buddy the Elf is during Christmas time.


Everything is a first for us in the Hadley house with being newly weds. Another first of ours is our very first Christmas tree! I felt like such an adult picking out the tree, bringing it into the house and decorating it. Sometimes it feels surreal that I am married and live in my own little house that I can decorate however I want! It is so fun to go on Pinterest and look up decor I like and try to pull it off.


So with all the decorations and fun, I of course have to capture it all for memories. Luckily I got to steal Mitchell in for a second between his finals studying to take a picture in front of our tree. I have this crazy idea that every year we take a picture in front of the tree and as the years go on there will be more people in the picture like a dog, then babies, and so forth.
 It may look like a cheesy, self timer, old fashion photo, but I love it so much. It shows our first Christmas together.

Spinach Berry Smoothie

a perfect pick me up smoothie is the best way to start off the day here is my spinach berry smoothie jam packed with sweet berry's and lots of spinach I also added a touch of blue agave for some extra sweetness ~3 cups of spinach (you can always add in more veggies like carrots) ~ small hand full of frozen strawberries, blue berries and blackberries ~few slices of frozen pineapple ~some splashes of cranberry juice (you can use any liquid from almond milk to apple juice, I just enjoy the strong flavor of cranberry juice) and that's all! for some extra nutrients to the smoothie adding in protein powder would always be delightful

SUMMER

Hands down summer is just the best season. There is so much that I love about summer I could write a book. One thing that Mitchell and I have been doing is going to the beach a lot. We are very blessed that we can just walked right to the beach from our home. Even with our busy work schedule we try to make it down there even on weekdays to walk, surf or just relax. We have had many weddings to attend, 4th of July, parties, and beach days for Summer 2017. And we also have a new (or two) additions to our family.... GOLDFISH lol We bought two twin (I call them twins hehe) goldfish for pets. I feel once you get married there is this tendency for women mostly that they need to care for something else as well as their husband. In my train of thought it would be a puppy, then a baby! And of course me I have been craving a puppy for a long time. But unfortunately we can not have a dog at our house and we are not home enough to care for the puppy so..... we bought two goldfish to keep m...
