Since Rob didn't have to spend as much time this week as he originally thought studying, we had plenty of time to decorate our apartment for Christmas! Here are a few pictures...
Our Christmas tree! He is a lil 4-foot guy sitting on a box so he is tall enough to be seen through the window, but we like him :)
This is the fireplace Rob created last Christmas when I came out to visit him. It's hanging on the wall with our thermostat...which I'm really only mentioning as a way to point out that our heat is broken and this is a bigger deal in Arizona than I would have thought. It gets chilly in here at night! 
We made paper snowflakes to hang from the lamp above our kitchen table and I filled the Kate Spade rose bowl from Cindy and John with extra ball ornaments that didn't fit on our lil tree.
The flash makes it difficult to appreciate these, but we strung lights on our balcony and around our front door. It's been fun coming home to Christmas lights in the evening!
On Friday we went into Glendale for a Gingerbread Nights festival. The newspaper out here claimed that you could make your own gingerbread house to bring home, but we never found the area to do so. I was disappointed! The festival was a lot like Strongsville's home days in the summer, with a giant movie screen to show The Grinch. Even though it wasn't what we expected, it was a fun evening out. And I'm definitely getting my share of Christmas between our decorations and the Kids Bop Christmas cd that plays nonstop at Rolly Pollies.
We hope all is well with everyone and that you had as much fun decorating this year as we did! Merry Christmas :) Love, Sarah and Rob

Very nice holiday decor. Sounds like you both are getting in the spirit.
Rob, hang in there, the 19th is not too far away.
Will see you in 15 days!
