the past few days . . .

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas.  I don't always get worked up about the presents part, but I fully confess that this year, I got really excited.  My mom bought me THE dress I really wanted (she didn't even know that out of the ones on my wishlist it was my #1 pick), so I was stoked about that.  it came from shabby apple, who also teams with women in India to help them out, so purchasing is more than just getting something pretty.

adam got me a pair of beautiful earrings (which will go great w/ my new dress!) from ten thousand villages.  he also replaced my copy of freedom writers b/c some kid at school stole my copy (i'm missing most of my best books b/c of this; i hope the kids who steal my books enjoy them!).  it was a great Christmas with family.  i'm so blessed - the reagans and the johnsons get along really well.  we all had dinner together on Christmas eve and again on Christmas day.  it's awesome having a bigger family!  can't wait to add some little ones to the mix for brady, my niece, to play with.  


here are some other thoughts . . . 


yep.  i found this on modcloth.com.  this pretty much sums up what happens when i try DIY projects.  that's okay though.  i like being creative for the process.  it's not always about the product...

tomorrow we are celebrating my father-in-law's birthday, so we're going to see this movie :




then, it's off to dinner at circa 1875 in downtown savannah, so that should be fun and yummy!




i hope you all have had a fun, restful, and blessed Christmas with your loved ones :).
