I spent a wonderful week in Arkansas for the Thanksgiving holiday and am still reeling from how quickly it went by. I arrived on Sunday afternoon and got to combine spending time with my family and eating some Mexican food. On Monday, I ran some errands and hung out with Poppie.
Tuesday afternoon, I caught up with Megan and Amanda H. (Terp) over lunch. Amanda and I continued to hang out until heading to Briana's baby shower that evening
I know I'm biased, but my sister is the cutest pregnant woman I have ever seen. Even though she's not here yet, Hadley has solidified her place as the princess in our family.
Wednesday began with Christmas gift wrapping and ended with picking up Ryan from the airport and later enjoying some pizza with everyone at Dad's.
As tradition demands, Thanksgiving involved stuffing ourselves with too much good food. Dad found a butternut squash stuffing recipe that seems destined to become a family classic.
Christmas came early on Friday at Briana and Jason's house, where we enjoyed an amazing Beef Wellington dinner and opened our Christmas gifts to each other.
It was all football on Saturday and an amazing Arkansas win that just might take them to their first BCS bowl. Afterwards we checked out the lights on the Fayetteville square and enjoyed burgers at Hugo’s. Later we had a little cake and gave Dad his birthday presents. There was a lot of celebrating, too much good food, but most of all, it was just great getting to spend time together.
