Christmas Dreams & New Year's Wishes

Heeeeyooooo - Have no fear, I'm still here. Just haven't been around HERE. I had a pretty decent Christmas - honestly just thankful it's over. I love the hustle & bustle of the holidays - the shopping, the Christmas lights, the parties, the food but I'm always relived when it's time to get back to normal life. I really love shopping for others and buying them really special, unique gifts but dang it sucks to have to pay my bills after all that shopping too!
 
Christmas with my family was actually pretty smooth. To keep things in line with Thanksgiving, we had no blow ups, no tears and everything was all smiles. I actually talked my dad, brother, stepmom and my aunt & cousin into coming to Christmas Eve services at church with me too. My brother and I are working on fixing things with our relationship, and I couldn't tell you the last time I really argued with my mom. THIS NEVER HAPPENS IN MY FAMILY!! I could get used to it.

I'm a redneck and all I wanted for Christmas was to shoot my brother's new rifle  - disregard my chubbiness here
So things are pretty good around these parts! Going into 2014, I'm looking forward to new episodes of Parks & Rec, new adventures, , big Jesus moments, more Luke Bryan, new relationships and working towards getting my hot body back. I'm just a simple girl!
 
Happy New Year!! XOXOXO
