o christmas week

It has been a fabulous week in preparation for Christmas. The work-week was short and I was coming home to a house full of family and good cheer. On Monday David and I joined Holly and Marcus at the newest hot spot in Tallahassee - Hotel Duval. We had dinner at Shulas 347 but first went to their rooftop bar to see the view. I have been leary of this place since its grand opening in the fall but I will admit I was pleasantly surprised and was actually impressed by what I saw.

I went to the Mica annual Christmas cookie/dinner party on Tuesday and then David and I exchanged gifts. He wrapped my present beautifully and even tied a pretty bow. I'll show you below what he got me :)

On Wednesday I traveled to Ocala just in time to go to the high school friends annual Christmas party. This year it was a tacky Christmas sweater party and it was hilarious! It was so great to see everyone.

Thursday the Edenfields arrived in Ocala and now our household is complete for Christmas morn (except for David who is in Tallahassee with his family...and I miss him so much and wish he was here!). We joined the Hagood/Bruce families for a yummy lunch at Latinos before family Christmas Eve festivities. Whenever we are all home for any holiday we always meet at Latinos for lunch. We never know who is going to show up and we love that.

Sister brought a package for me that arrived after I left town yesterday afternoon...my new CAMERA!!!!!! I've spent most of the day playing with it and I'm quite pleased with results thus far. From now on all my pictures will truly be blog worthy!

Merry Christmas to all {my dear friends} and to all, a goodnight.
