It's the most wonderful time of the year

This weekend was jam packed and I do mean jam packed! It definitely put me in the Christmas mood if I wasn't there already (don't worry I have been since Dec 1! haha!)  Friday night I hosted several ladies for a jewelry party and tasty food at my house--it was such a great time!  I think I grazed the food table more than the actual jewelry!

Saturday morning I was early to rise, a little too early but it was for a good reason! I scooted on down to Fredericksburg where Theresa and I had a fun filled day touring old historic houses decked out in Christmas!! They were awesome and even more so was the history that filled the walls!  I didn't snap one dagburn picture of Theresa and I but here are a couple to give you a preview of the houses.

We did get a little cold standing in line but the payoff was well worth it! Thanks Theresa for getting the tickets!  We ended the night with a concert down in Ashland featuring the The Taters and The Grandsons! They were a hoot just a hoot!  They played holiday music and a couple of their favs! Boy were we exhausted when we got home!

 

It was such a great weekend, but I think I need a weekend to regroup from my weekend! What did y'all do this weekend? Are y'all ready for the Holidays?

Baby Jake's 1st Birthday!

This weekend Ry and I traveled down to celebrate his nephew's 1st birthday!! Linds and Thad had a packed house and were fully equipped with tasty treats! After watching all the munchins tobble around we openend presents and ate cake! Who knew they made so many toys with different shapes, sounds and colors!

 

Happy Birthday Baby Jake!!! 

We also walked around downtown and participated in the "window wonderland" contest-- it is all about solving riddles that relate to Christmas Toys.  This is the last one we have to answer and are a little stumped!  Any ideas?!



XOXO

Happy Monday

The start of another week!!
. . . .  Monday's are so hard to get out of bed especially when its so snuggly under the warm sheets!  In the winter time, I do the toe test-- I stick my toes out from under the covers, if its too nippy(which it always is and is just a good excuse to stay in bed longer) I quickly sneak them right back under and snooze the alarm!!

As a weekend recap let me first start by saying that the TRAIN was/is AWESOME!!! I mean seriously!! I wasn't pulling my hair out or screaming frantically at other drivers on 95 rather I caught a quick cat nap!  Bryce and Ry scooped me at the station and it was off to enjoy a great weekend!  We watched LOTS of football, went to a wine festival, ate lots of GREAT food (thanks Theresa!), and just hung out!

Pics from the train-- loved it!

Mike's first wine festival :)

Once Ry and I were back in town we watched some of the games and by 8:00 I was itching to get out of the house!!! We treated ourselves to some good ole pho! With the chilly weather touching down it's the perfect winter treat!

Hope y'all had a nice weekend!

XOXO
