Phoenix has been one cloudy place lately. I have to say though, that I don’t miss the sun much. My mom and her side are from Seattle, Washington, and I’ve always said that that was the place for me. Every day that the sun is hidden for the day here, I take that as a test to see how I would survive actually living in Seattle. One day I think I will live there, one day.

The other day Scott and I were rocking some of our Christmas gifts, including new sweaters and coats, a purse, and boots. The sweater I’m wearing I actually picked out while in Colorado (because sometimes it’s hard to Christmas shop when you’re always together), and I really love the floral pattern on it. The boots Scott is wearing were picked out by him one day while shopping, but I surprised him with them. And the purse was a gift from my parents, and I’m honestly in love with it. There are SO many pockets in it.

My mom wanted to buy Scott this The North Face coat so he would have a nice warm coat for the chilly days we’ve been having in Phoenix. While shopping it was so hard not to pick up numerous other cute cold weather coats, but I had to remember that I would be going back to Arizona soon and wouldn’t have such need for such a heavy, and warm coat.

I’m pretty thrilled that Scott loves his boots. I look at it from the perspective that they look good, and they also keep his ankles in check (my guy has bad ankles after accidents, and other problems because of them, sadly).
