Weekend Recap

I know I'm a little behind but its CHRISTMAS WEEK! We have been busy every night this week, dinner w/ friends, bowling birthday party, and christmas swap with work! This past weekend cannot go unmentioned though. We went Friday to Wade's Graduation in Athens.

He & Kate got to sit right beside each other, SO CUTE!

We went to Last Resort for dinner and where else? Generals..... OF COURSE!

We spent the rest of the weekend in Metter with Wesleys folks and then went to his grandparents to start the Christmas Gift Swap. We ended up with Toy Story 3 (went straight to Reese) and some Glasses. We always have such a good time with them.

I took a Corn Casserole over for lunch Sunday. This is a crowd pleaser and super easy.

Corn Casserole

1 box of Jiffy Cornbread mix

1 8 oz sour cream

1 can creamed corn

1 can whole corn

1 stick butter melted

Mix together and bake at 350 for about 35 min.

Now we are packing up to head home to Cordele! Im so excited to spend some time with our families and open gifts! Hope you have safe travels!

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree

Here is our fat little Christmas tree this year.

and here are all the gifts after a weekend of shopping & wrapping

I always dream of having a beautiful color coordinated tree, but there is something so special about a tree decorated with ornaments that mean something. Since I was born my mom & dad gave us an ornament every year that symbolized something in our life that year. I have gotten a UGA ornament, high school graduation, cheerleading, newlywed, doll houses, and many more. The deal is when you get married mom packs up your box of ornaments and that is what you use to decorate your first tree together as a newlywed. We haven't gotten our box of ornaments yet...only due to our lack of storage space in our little apt, BUT when we get a house I will use them on my tree too! I have also started collecting ornaments on trips we have taken. It is my way of collecting something (besides shot glasses) and when your decorating all those ornaments bring back memories of our travels. Here are a couple of our recent ornaments...

Vegas with my girls (will never forget that)

Our Honeymoon in Mexico (there werent many ornaments in mexico)

Seattle to see our friends

From our New York Trip

My boss gave me this sweet ornament it has a pic of us from our wedding

and the back is a small print of our invitaion (i know hard to see)

From our ski trip where we got engaged

1 year anniversary in the Hamptons

For now I'll save that color coordinated tree for another room when we get a bigger place!
