Happy Holiday Season to all of you! The weather has gotten cooler, the leaves have changed colors (or have completely fallen off the trees if you're looking at the trees at my house), and Christmas decorations are up! This is, by far, my most favorite time of the year. We've both been pretty busy with work and weekend activities, and I don't think it's slowing down for us any time soon. I think we're booked through New Year's!
We had an awesome Thanksgiving. We got to see a large part of the family and we had the funnest craps tournament. Neither Rick or myself won, but we got extremely close. It was definitely good practice for the upcoming Christmas tournament!
Rick and I went to Wassailfest this year with a couple of friends. Last year we went solo, which made it a little difficult because I was the only one that wanted to go by every business and test their wassail. I had fellow wassail testers this year which made it more exciting for me...although, I can't say the same for Rick. :) I have no idea who won for the best-tasting wassail, but I voted for #22 and I hope they made it in the top ranks. Wassailfest is one of my favorite New Braunfels traditions and it's something I look forward to every year.
Aside from Thanksgiving, Christmas shopping, Wassailfest, and work, I've been preparing our house for our first-ever Christmas Party. No one in our group of friends has ever hosted one and I took it upon myself (like always!) to plan a get-together. This is something that I would love to do every year, and I think it's a great way to keep our group of friends close and in touch as we all continue to grow up...or at least try to grow up! :) It's a finger food and dessert potluck with a gift grab, and I'm sure a couple of tacky sweaters and santa hats will show up. We're super excited about it and hope it goes off without a hitch!
I still have tons of pictures to post on Facebook and when I finally get around to posting on there, I'll throw some on here too. I'm horrible at posting pictures sometimes...I'll be sure to update soon!
Make each day a GREAT day!
