Happy Valentines!

My wonderful day in pictures...

These were some extra special things that made my day:

strawberry truffles from my boss,

chocolate covered strawberries from my coworker,

&

free Jimmy Johns...

Could 

a 

day 

get 

any 

better??

Yes, it can!!

Especially when I am blessed enough 

to have a pretty special, thoughtful man in my life.

Aren't they the most beautiful flowers ever?!?! :)

Roses, Chrysanthemums, & Alstroemerias = Perfect

 I couldn't have had a better day...

Rewind to last Valentines...

Let's just say that I do recant, and this will always be a very special Valentines for me!

I hope you all had as wonderful of a holiday as I did;

Happy Valentines!

Christmas 2011

It is so hard to believe that Christmas has come and gone and the year 2012 is right around the corner.

God has been so good to my family this year - 

we saw many answers to prayer, 

and He blessed us beyond measure.

My cup runneth over.

 Many of our Christmas traditions were skipped due to Christmas falling on a Sunday. 

However, spending Christmas morning in church and celebrating the birth of our Savior with other Christians proved very memorable.

 It was a joy looking out from the choir loft at all the visitors who had chosen to come to church.

 Preacher brought a wonderful sermon on the greatest gift ever given to mankind...

the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. 

 I hope you all had a blessed holiday, for truly this is the most wonderful time of the year!!

A Family Affair

Baking Christmas Goodies:

Always a fun affair!

We have compiled a list of our favorites.

Peanut Butter Balls always at the top!

The whole family pitches in and in no time we have made 5 dozen of each.

We give away most to friends,

but always make enough for us to keep a few ourselves.

Holiday baking complete!

Now, we just need some snow!!

Thanksgiving Recap

 So, seeing as we got our first snowfall this morning,

[insert squeals of sheer delight]

I figured it was high time I gave a recap on my Thanksgiving...

We spent the day with family friends and some other young people from the church and college.

The table decor, in my opinion, is almost as important as the food, 

and Mrs. Hughes outdid herself.

I opted for Pumpkin Spice Coffee as opposed to the Pumpkin Pie,

and it was delish! :)

 The kitchen clean up crew::

 

Mr. Hughes and his stories that always make us laugh!

 

Game time!!

A great Thanksgiving full of great food and a time well spent with friends!
