So, let me catch you up on our lives here on Bending River Drive...
Since November 18th, I have...
Spent a total of 19 days in Texas.
Put up my very first big girl Christmas tree!!!
It's snowed 3 solid times.
Went to 3 Titans games, including one with Santa.
Went on an ICE! date!
Watched my sister and husband take a nap together...
Had Christmas and Christmas and Christmas and Christmas!
...and Christmas!!
Played two games / 12 hours of Rail Baron.
Bought my first sweater dress and leggings (I know I'm about 2 years late to the party) and hosted a New Year's Eve fiesta!
Learned how to make Mamaw's rolls - all by myself! (...and many other of her delicious holiday staples, but the rolls are the only recipe I've tested all by my lonesome)
Play 176 hands of dominoes with a much healthier Granddad! If he keeps looking that good, I'll play all the dominoes he wants!
Bought two dresses and two very un-Amanda like pairs of shoes! And went to Dallas to see the beautiful Meg and Kevin get hitched!!
...and snuck in some Sushi Zushi!
FINALLY got a pair of rainboots...but out of necessity - so Patterick couldn't object, and they're from The Walmarts...
Spent two snow-filled, cold, almost-alcohol-free nights in Bryant, Arkansas, thanks to Winter-ggedeon 2011 and Ruby Tuesday.
Turned 28...with sushi!
Went on a birthday hike in my new favorite pretty place.
...and that's about it.
Abbey, on the other hand, took approximately 186 naps...
I'll be back before March! I promise!!
