It's Christmas Time in the City

Matt and I have been enjoying Christmas time here lately! There are so many places decorated for the holidays. Tonight Matt and I went to the Carnegie National History Museums hall of architecture, and downtown to explore some of the Christmas fun!
The Carnegie Natural History Museum had several beautiful twenty foot trees decorated for Christmas. They also had people singing classic Christmas songs. It was nice to feel the spirit of Christmas!
Downtown Pittsburgh had been completely redecorated for Christmas. There was an ice rink, a little Christmas village and several large Christmas trees. There was also an entire Christmas exhibit inside of PPG place. The exhibit had Santa's from all over the world, and gingerbread houses made from children from local schools.

Cathedral of Learning

Before we came out to Pittsburgh we heard about the Cathedral of Leaning on the University of Pittsburgh's campus. The Cathedral is over 40 stories tall. It looks like Hogwarts when you first walk inside with all of the high gothic arches. Each classroom is decorated based on a different country. They brought architects and interior designers native to each particular room's country to decorate. At Christmas time they even use Christmas decorations from the country of origin. We briefly were able to look around the rooms today. It was beautiful and fun!

We Are Still Alive

Where do I begin? A lot has happened since my last post. Matt graduated from BYU. We moved cross country and now call Pennsylvania home. I have a job I love and like exploring our new city. Matt is busy in his first year of Law School. I will try to be better about updating with what we are doing, but for now just know we are alive and well.
