Our Last Christmas Ball

One weekend a year Nate and I live in a dream world.
We eat home-made muffins and and milk shakes at an old fashion sweet shoppe,  stay in a mansion, dress up, witness the first snowfall of the season, and go to a ball.  Christmas ball.  My favorite weekend of the year.  I get to feel like a princess and I love creating traditions with someone I love.

This was our third and last year going to the Christmas ball and staying at Glen Cove Mansion.

The cute little sweet shoppe diner we go to every year. 
They have to-die-for muffins and the place hasn't changed in over 100 years!

We thought it would be a perfect time to exchange Christmas presents. 
Let's just say I am a very luck girl. 
The most beautiful diamond necklace, that I don't think I'll be taking off, ever.
On our way back from to the city we stopped at Trader Joes in Queens where our cashier asked if we were newlyweds and then to Bob's Discount Furniture just to look where we were literally followed by a sales associate the entire time in case we had any questions.  I don't know if its my pretty necklace, or Nate's new Bannana Republic coat I bought him, but we feel very old.  And I like it.
