Katie drew my name for the family gift exchange at Nan's. Katie is known for her fabulous gift giving skills. For me, Katie buying me a gift = a Zac Efron/ Michael Phelps Christmas. Love it all Kate, you are the best! She even SPLURGED and got Zac wrapping paper- RICH!!!
The Riley's invited me, Allie, and Aaron over to decorate ginger bread cookies. We had such a fun time, I just love those kids. 12/19 
Beth came home from Hawaii for the holidays. Britt, Beth, and I met for lunch. So fun to hear about her adventures in Hawaii and her new beau! 12/20
Nice job Garrett!
I got to see Wally. He is such a cutie. He would be wrapped around his daddy's finger for sure. 12/22
So, I hear it is all in the wrist action when you blow your hair dry....I think that is where I am going wrong (although I have every size CHI ceramic round brush there is). I know that Dolce offers a blow drying class and I think I am getting desperate enough to take it.
Got suggestions? I need help from you cute hair girls... There are tons of you so cough up those secrets.
There are so many things I love about Katie. She is the best "big" sister a girl could ask for. 
I did.. I helped (Katie I lied.. I did not make this, I helped mom you silly girl) make this delicious pumpkin roll. It is my absolute favorite dessert on thanksgiving! My mom was determined to have me help her make it.
I am thankful for so many things this year. I am very thankful for my job and the sweet little kiddos I get to work with every day. They make my life so much fun and remind me to relax and enjoy each day. A couple days before the break I sent home 3 die-cuts where each student's parent(s) were to write what they were thankful for about their child. They were the sweetest little messages and I got a little choked up with each one I read. Parents were very specific, it was so sweet. I read each one in front of the class and the kids LOVED it.
Daniel, me, Bonnie, Allie (Hillary Clinton), Aaron, and Matty
Julie (Amy's sister) and me on the trolley ride back to the Wright house.
I got "unlimited hugs" from Amy's adorable nephew Drew... ALL DAY. He is the sweetest, loving little boy. I think I am going to see if he can come over and play.
Amy had the coolest photo booth for her guests to take pictures in. You taped one picture inside a book for Amy and Davey and you kept the rest. Here is the note Allie and I left in their book. Sorry it is a little blurry.
Yes, this is hanging above my bed. I bought it for Allie, but I had to tell her it was completely inappropriate to take when she got married and moved out. She fell for it... (hey, my mom had Nick, from the Backstreet Boys, hanging in her room for years.) Belee me.
Kristen, me, Jenny, Michelle, Adrienne, Stefanie, and Juuuulie (no, my hands are not holding any beverages).
Carrie put on a great show. She is just so dang cute. I can't believe how much she has accomplished in her short 3 years as a country artist. I mean anyone who is inducted to the Grand Ol' Opry has "made it" in my opinion. When she sang American Girl she brought this little girl on stage to sing with her. I choked up... it was so cute.
JAMA girls- Any night with these girls is an entertaining night. Apparently Jenny heard "Dance Works pose." (someone remind ME to never stand like that)
2. 3 is the number of times I have seen this movie THIS weekend. I feel it is my single handed responsibilty to make sure this movie is #1 at the box office. I also purchased the cd.
3. I would die to look like:
Anne Hathaway
Mandy Moore
OR Julianne Hough
6. I am a newly enrolled student of Financial Peace University. Dave Ramsey is my new best friend. 
You can't go to the State Fair with out enjoying some Fry Bread. AND really, where do the people who attend the State Fair hide the remainder of the year? There were some of all kinds. (Yes, we ate "Indian Fry, Ouch mom, Brittany pinched me.")
