"Whoa!"--Lucy

"Whoa!" is Lucy's favorite new word, and it's the perfect word to describe the whirlwind of a holiday season we had. 

After celebrating Christmas early with my side of the family, Andy, Birdie and I headed to Atlanta for a fun-filled week.
Birdie riding on the console, butt on back seat as usual, heading to ATL.
While in Atlanta, Sally and I went shopping, of course, hitting Anthropologie and the Jonathan Adler store, where I saw these lovelies. They are the cutest salt and pepper shakers, and they were screaming "Megan!" I knew I had to get them for her, but I had already gotten her Christmas and birthday presents. However, I just had this feeling that an engagement was in her near future, so I bought them for her "future engagement present". And what do you know, that night I got a phone call from Megan telling me she and Cameron were engaged! I must be psychic or something. I couldn't be happier for such a great couple!
Jonathan Adler Grey Nixon salt & pepper shakers

On Christmas Eve day, we met up with some family friends for a play date at the dog park. They have two goldens, Iowa and River, and a white german shepherd, Colonel.
All 4 dogs being anti-social.


Birdie had just jumped through that. Nope. that's a lie.
On Christmas Eve, Andy's family has always gone to a family friend's house for a party. It is SO much fun. As you know, we are slightly obsessed with Christmas Vacation, and so is this family. Pretty much all night the only conversation back and forth between Andy and his friend Chris is quotes from the movie. 
We even sipped eggnog from official Marty the Moose National Lampoons glasses! On a side note, I hate eggnog. This was all for the picture.

Christmas day was very relaxing. Some family friends came over for dinner, and Sally cooked a very yummy beef tenderloin. Unfortunately, I didn't take very many pictures. 

Here's what I got.
Christmas morning beignets




We had a great time spending the holiday with Andy's parents in Atlanta. We headed back to Charleston on the 27th, and my cousin and her two kids came in town on the 28th and were here until New Year's Day. Like I said, it was a whirlwind of a holiday season, but we loved every minute of it. 

I will have to save the rest for another post. This one is getting too long and I can feel myself falling asleep. If I'm falling asleep, you probably are, too.

How was your holiday season?

  5. What I am about to say is a testimony of a great spiritual spell caster who is worldwide known as @Drbowsolutionhome  This man helped me bring my ex wife back to me. Since 2009, after 7 years of disorder in my marriage, it came to a very huge colossal disaster. My wife left me and took my kids along with her which left me alone. 2 years later I was hearing news of a great spell caster who help people with their desires and I read about him online. I saw his contact @drbowsolutionhome and I contacted him. Within 3 days, my wife came to meet me and told me how much she missed me and the family being a whole. She said she needed me back to her and I was very glad with myself. I am thanking Doctor Bow today for what he did for me. Contact doctor Bow if you are passing through any problem today at : drbowsolutionhome@gmail.com or whats App :  +2348121786772

  7. After being in relationship with Wilson for seven years,he broke up with me, I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to someone online and she suggested that I should contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that don’t believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I meant a spell caster called Dr Zuma zuk and I email him, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before three days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that happened, that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him, that was how we started living together happily again. Since then, I have made promise that anybody I know that have a relationship problem, I would be of help to such person by referring him or her to the only real and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem and who is different from all the fake ones out there. Anybody could need the help of the spell caster, his email: spiritualherbalisthealing@gmail.com or WhatsApp him +15068001647

  9. Hi My name is Rebecca.i just want to share my experience with the world on how i got my love back and saved my marriage… I was married for 7 years with 4 kids and we lived happily until things started getting ugly and we had a fights and arguments almost every time… it got worse at a point that he filed for divorce… I tried my best to make him change his mind & stay with me cause i loved him with all my heart and didn’t want to loose him but everything just didn’t work out… he moved out of the house and still went ahead to file for divorce… I pleaded and tried everything but still nothing worked. The breakthrough came when someone introduced me to this wonderful, great spell caster Dr Zuma, who eventually helped me out… I have never been a fan of things like this but just decided to try reluctantly cause I was desperate and left with no choice… He did special prayers and cast a love spell on him. Within 24hours he called me and was sorry for all the emotional trauma he had cost me, moved back to the house and we continue to live happily, the kids are happy too and we are expecting our fourth child… I have introduced him to a lot of couples with problems across the world and they have had good news… Just thought I should share my experience cause I strongly believe someone out there needs it… You can contact him on spiritualherbalisthealing@gmail.com whatsapp +15068001647
