How exciting that Ari agreed for us to get our first and very own Christmas tree together in Bahrain! And I didn't even need to beg (too much) for it either.

I just did what any tactful girl who wants her way would do i.e. keep dropping non-subtle hints of how nice it would be and how it doesn't really feel like Christmas without a tree. Ari's such a good boyfriend :)

For some reason this year I'm really excited and some what obsessed about Christmas!

The carols and holiday music started about a fortnight ago and I have been subjecting Ari to a December long Christmas movie marathon including some childhood favourites "Home Alone" and "The Muppets Christmas Carol", rom coms "Love Actually" and "While You Were Sleeping" and some more obscure ones like "Die Hard", "Bad Santa" and "The Nightmare Before Christmas".
