dear year 2008,
thank you for a most wonderful time and days full of exciting change:
- i moved to a better part of atlanta all on my own
- made a huge decision to leave my job
- which was mostly thanks to the even bigger decision to move BACK to tennessee
- survived a one day move across states & began my new job the very next day
- i turned another year older { aka closer to 'my mid 20's' }
- celebrated reid turning another year older
- realized how smart my generation is
- became a peacock for a day
- survived {and followed closely} the most important political season of my lifetime { thus far }
- completed new projects
- celebrated thanksgiving {twice} & christmas {5 times} with reid and our families
- stayed healthy and thankful
- realized how blessed we are to have each other, be just across the street from each other, and the love all around us everyday
thank you family & friends for a great 2008!
much love to you & be safe in 2009

gobbling goodness
I managed to make the 2nd Annual Turkey day sugar cookies at the Hiltons! The middle photo is actually of a batch of peanut butter cookies (which burnt) that I made for Reid & friend Marshall. Several technical issues this year besides not being able to be in my own kitchen. The icing bags burst at the seams, my brown came out more of a brownish-caramel, and the cookie sheets available really kinda burnt the bottoms. Oh well, at least they tasted good.Thanksgiving day is supposedly the biggest movie day of the year (probably because everything is closed and people are too tired to do anything besides sit) so we went to the movies the day after, a great idea for the Hiltons plus two. Marshall came with us to see the new Bond movie, Quantum of Solace which was decent. Definitely not the best of the Bonds.

turkey day
happy thanksgiving!
i hope you are able to spend the holiday with friends & family, and eat so much that you nap all afternoon. reid & i are in west tn at his parents house. they recently invested in a new ping pong table (mostly for the excercise & reid's nephew's) which has taken over their garage. though it's a chilly 33 degrees outside, we managed to warm up around the table & waste a few hours playing. some of the hilton family came by for turkey and dressing that afternoon, but nothing was as much fun as playing Connect Four with little Hunter. i hadn't thought about that game in probably 10 years, but as soon as he mentioned playing, the old commercial stuck in my head. i let him win best 2 out of 3 or course.

Just wait and see, Charlie Brown. I'll see the Great Pumpkin. 
We watched 'The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown' every year as a child, and its no different for me as an adult. I can't wait for October 31st.
