Happy New Year!


So I finally got around to catching up with my Google reader blog list (368 unread posts at this point), and got inspired enough to write one myself!  Let me catch you all up...

The wedding ended up being just perfect, but not without a lot of hard work and drama on the uphill.  Yes, it was chaos up to about 5 minutes before my sister walked down the aisle, but honestly...it was not unexpected.  It's just how we do things around here!  There were wardrobe issues, hair issues, and most of the wedding party had a cold, including the bride.  But seriously, the ceremony was lovely!  Did I mention that we went with real flowers in the end?

Christmas this year seemed a bit like an afterthought after the wedding buzz, but was also a pretty good time.  My brother was home from college, and it's always a good time having everyone home...even if we are only missing one most of the time.  I think it's really just great being home...

Anyway, 2012 has been somewhat uneventful to be honest.  No big trips or disasters, but I'd say it's been pretty good so far all in all.  I'm still employed and am not minding so much.  It's getting up early that kills me, but it's hardly something I can avoid.

And finally, the picture above... I actually chose this picture because it's the only picture I've taken since my last blog post...  Very sad.  But somewhat relevant.  Some things that this picture says about me:

  • Panera Bread has been my favorite place to eat since I came home to Kansas.
  • I have never liked lima beans...and still don't.  Even at Panera.
  • My boyfriend thinks that hating both lima beans and carrots is ridiculous, but still takes me to Panera on a regular basis :)
