2012 highlights

I can't believe 2012 is coming to a close! Let's take a look back, shall we?

-Purchasing a home! We were so blessed to be able to buy our first home this year, and it's coming together!

-Getting the opportunity to go to Wimbledon!

-BFF reunion. I love getting together with my best friends. We're super cool and always have fun!

-Being a part of such a great small group.

-Dan and I have been able to volunteer with the high school youth at our church (the same youth group I was a part of!).

-Finding out we'd be an aunt and uncle (twice!).

-Our trip to Scotland and England. I was looking at the pictures again last night, and what a wonderful trip it was!

2012 was filled with such amazing blessings and adventures. I can't wait to see what's in store for 2013! :)

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas, everyone! The past few days have been full of family celebration. Last weekend, Dan and I headed up to Lilburn to celebrate Christmas with the Burnett crew. We had a great time and ate, and ate, and ate. Santa brought some goodies too.

Christmas Eve morning Dan and I exchanged gifts. I just couldn't wait any longer. I got some of my favorite things: scarves and cooking products! (For those of you that may not know, anything cooking related is perfect :) ).

This morning, we headed to my parent's house to see what Santa had up his sleeve. (Bummed I don't have any pics from this morning)! Dan and I feel so incredibly blessed and are so thankful for everyone that helped make Christmas so special. Now, we're just waiting on the arrival of our nephew! He's due any day and we can't wait to meet him!

But what I love most about this season (and what is so humbling) is the little boy born in a stable.

"I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord." Luke 2:10-11

Merry Christmas, everyone!

two years

Two years ago, I was blessed to marry this man! God is so good.

A look back on the best day ever! :)

Happy Anniversary, Dan!

blue ridge

My husband and I just returned from a relaxing weekend in the Blue Ridge Mountains. We got to head out early Thursday afternoon. We made a pit stop along the way and ate at Taco Mac for dinner. (Since Augusta does not have one of those, it was nice do indulge in some delish wings). Then we were Blue Ridge bound again and it was such a nice, relaxing trip! Shout out to Michael and Gena for allowing us to use their mountain home!

We ate tons of food. Including this amazing strawberry cream fried pie I devoured from Mercier Orchards.

 

I look forward to another trip, and more fried pies. Or five... :)

december

I can't believe it's December already! This year has flown by. Lot's of things to look forward to this month. Let's go.

-The birth of my nephew! I can officially say he's due this month. I can't wait to meet the little guy!

-The office I work at closes the last week and a half of December. It's awesome.
  
-Burnett/Scott family Christmas! The Burnett clan gets together the weekend before Christmas and it's always a fun time with lots of laughs and good food. Then it's followed by Christmas on my family's side and there's more food involved :)

-ABC Family and Hallmark Christmas movies. Gotta love 'em!

-The whole Christmas season. I love Christmas and getting together for celebrations, but I seriously just love the true reason we celebrate it! I mean, come on-the Savior was born. Pretty awesome.
 
-There's another reason I love December. It's my anniversary month! This month Dan and I celebrate our 2nd anniversary. SO blessed!

Happy December!
