Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald still look absolutely smitten with each other a little under two months since they married.

The loved up pair tied the knot in front of a thousand guests on November 1 and are taking married life in their fun-filled stride. 

And they're very happy to share every moment of it with their fans, sharing plenty of selfies while on their adventures.

Just last weekend, the couple took a trip to Hot Springs, Arkansas.  This week, with Christmas upon us, they've been happily goofing around with each other while out for some last minute gift-hunting for their large families.  

Jessa shared a sweet selfie on Instagram of the pair grinning as they tried on elves' hats in one store.  

Last week, she shared a picture of her making a gingerbread house for Christmas together with her little sisters.

The wedding of Jessa and Ben was one of several highlights for the Duggar family in 2014.  The other was the wedding in the summer of her older sister, Jill, to Derick Dillard.  

It's been a year of weddings for the Duggar family, and a new addition is due to arrive in 2015, as Jill and Derick announced they were expecting their first child soon after they wed.  

The little boy, nicknamed 'Baby Dilly', is due March 24.
