It's Been A While

It has been so busy around here lately! New kitten, crazy schedules, decorating and dreaming.  I have so much to share!  I was not sure where to start, but I decided on my December daily.  So here goes:

Day 5: Today we took Riley to the dog park to meet up with some friends.  Riley always has an amazing time at the Fort Worth City Dog Park.  Our Friends Luke and Liz brought their two Black Mouth Kerr/Mountain Ridgeback puppies, Ty and Eddie, and they just ran and rolled for an hour.  He slept the whole way home.  His happiest place on Earth.

 Day 4: Today was Jordan's Birthday.  We started it with an episode of the X Files, our recent fave.  We went out to breakfast at Sonic, his pick, and then I gave him his presents.  The complete Michael Jackson and beer printed pjs.  I got a great reaction out of that.  We ended up at our friend Luke and Liz's house where Jordan and Luke started to brew their own beer and Liz and I made felted ornaments.  Derrik and Claire joined us for a spaghetti and meatball dinner and some much needed fun.  Good conversation all around.

 Day 3: After work we went to Fuzzy's, a local taco shop, with some work friends.  Jordan ended up with two free tacos, one from a co-worker and one for blowing out candles stuck in a taco while getting his picture taken by the store manger.  We ended the evening at Texas de Brazil, Jordan's hands down favorite restaurant.  A day full of food and stomach aches but totally worth it.

 Day 2:  I have been decorating for a couple days now but still have some finishing touches I want to do.  I have been buying up vintage ornaments everywhere to use this year in my new house.  This is one of my favorite items from this year, I got these empty glass trees from pier one last year on clearance for a dollar each.  I then added three dollars worth of vintage shiny bright mini ornaments and voila!  instant prettiness.    

Day 1:  Started like any other, feed the kitties, feed the dog, start cleaning the house.  I did not even realize it was December first till midday.  Then I get very excited because I remembered my December Daily album that needed filling.  Simple first picture.  Our living room end table with its picture frame and mini snowman.  Simple dy full of simple pleasures, X Files, dinner and kitty cuddling.
