Oopsy!

It's been two months.  Oops!  I was doing so well there for a while, too!

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!!
