atl

spent the day in atlanta with the family.  making that trip to atlanta has become much more familiar over the past six months....family from overseas here for the wedding, the SEC championship, and more family here from overseas :) as much as i have visited that city, i don't think i could ever live there.  atlanta has outgrown itself; however, the people keep coming and wanting to settle down within the atlanta city limits. one thing i pray for is that nashville never becomes an atlanta. as one of my favorite places on earth, nashville is very close to my heart and i miss it every day. it became my home and i grew an attachment to that city i could have never foreseen. i hope to be back soon...only if new york  city doesn't snatch me up first :)

with the family in town from oversease, i get the feeling of excitement any time i get to entertain or help entertain someone or a group of people. it makes me happy to see other people having a good time and with a smile on their faces. there is nothing more in this world that makes me smile than to have those that i love feel special. 
as much as i try to make my husband feel like the most special person in the world, he always outdoes me by making me feel like the most special person in the world. it never fails. he will always do something that makes me just stop to fully realize how selfless and how thoughtful he is about making me happy...and through it all, he is constantly making me laugh. 

one thing i wanted was someone who would laugh their way through life with me...and that is exactly what my good Lord gave me....my best friend as my husband. i love you md.

well, i'm pretty spent from being on the road all day...going to get some rest. 
happy weekend.

christmas in God's country

lately, i have started to slack on this blog...

work has been good and busy. trying to decorate and furnish the brand new house :) enjoying married life with the hubs.  made the trek over to bama from houston for the holidays...having two weeks off for christmas is one of the perks of my job and having the hubs along for the ride makes it even better. 

there is nothing like coming home to family for the holidays. the feeling that overcomes you the minute you step foot into mama and papa's house is something you cannot create or imagine. there is nothing more i love than the anticipation of a trip, especially a trip back to your stomping grounds. 

i hope you all have a merry christmas. enjoy your families. laugh without holding back and hug like you mean it.
