Another Big Milestone

Turns out I never wrote a blog about getting married on Oct 17, 2009. Well I got married on Oct 17, 2009 in Montevideo, MN. I married my best friend, Joslyn whom I had met in college. It was a crazy day…Awesome, crazy. I got sick right before the service. Upchucked about five times and other things that won’t be mentioned too. It was absolutely the best day of my life so far besides Jesus saving me from eternal death, that’s a given.

Here is why I am writing this post…we put up the Christmas tree. You know you are an adult when you have your own Christmas tree in your own home. Our’s happened to by my Grandpa and Grandma Weber’s old tree. Well old but new to us is what I say. It stands a burly nine feet tall and is quite beautiful with the 1970’s blue and gold shiny globes hanging on it. “You could say Bethel colors“ if you want. It also has a number of “Our first Christmas ornaments on it as well, each one with their own special meaning.



Typically in my family we never put the tree up before Thanksgiving and my birthday but I broke my own rule this year. For some reason, I just wanted to put it up. I got so excited that I almost didn’t tell Joslyn I was going to do it. She came into the room and was like, “You forgot to ask me to help. This is our first time putting it up.” Oops, I forgot.



This Christmas season, we have a lot to be thankful for. Our new marriage, and apartment we call home for now, our health, and family that we have, our jobs (part-time or not…it’s something), and most of all we are thankful for Jesus being humble enough to come to this Earth to save us all from our sins. May each person who reads this be blessed this Christmas Season.
