It's Janel Parrish's first holiday as a wife: Here's how she'll surprise her hubby
Janel Parrish has so much to be thankful for: The Pretty Little Liars star is celebrating her first Christmas with her husband, Chris Long, on the heels of their romantic wedding in Hawaii, where Parrish was raised.
And, in the video above, the actress shows us a cute seasonal update she’ll make to the bedroom she and Long share: Holiday-themed sheets, featuring snowflakes and reindeer.

“I like to decorate by myself and then surprise Chris when he comes home,” says Parrish. “I love having all the holiday things and then putting them up. He thinks it’s really cute.”
