Hi! I'm sorry that it has been soooo long! I haven't been blogging lately due to a lack of inspiration and time. But no more excuses! We have had a lot of exciting things happening, and we are so excited about our future and what will happen in the next few months!
Well, let's see... where to start.
Thanksgiving? We invited our family out to Charleston for the holiday. My parents and my in-laws decided to make the trek out to see us. Greg and I planned and planned the menu because we were going to be cooking the Thanksgiving feast. I have to admit that I was really excited about cooking Thanksgiving dinner for the first time every despite the fact that we live in a tiny 700 sq foot apartment with a very very small kitchen. We planned on having turkey, ham, dressing, sweet potato casserole, macaroni and cheese, corn casserole, green beans, pineapple and cheese casserole, chocolate pie, and pecan pie. We began cooking on Wednesday night, and then I got up early on Thursday to start again. Everything turned out well! I didn't burn the apartment building down, and everyone seemed to enjoy the meal. I was proud of myself. If you want any of the recipes please just comment and let me know which ones that you are interested in and I will do a post about it!
Exciting news to share, Greg will be graduating from Georgia Southern on Friday! We are getting up really early to head to Statesboro. Greg has to be there around 6-7 am to get his cap and gown, then graduation starts at 9 am! I am so proud of him, and due to some confusion about whether or not he would be able to graduate I will be his fan club! Our parents are not going to be able to make it, but I am planning on taking our video camera! Expect to see some clips from graduation on the blog! He will be receiving his Masters in Sport Management. I'm beyond proud of him!
We are so excited about Christmas. We will be heading home for the first time in three months! We are excited about spending time with our families. I finished decorating the apartment yesterday afternoon, and it looks so festive. I love our Christmas tree. I think it is the perfect mix of personal ornaments, and generic holiday-ish ones. We don't have a mantle and so I've set up our stockings on the TV stand. I think it looks really cute. I think it will be fun to be able to enjoy our first real Christmas together. =)
Oh, I guess something else big is coming up. Our 1 year anniversary. We don't have the money to do anything fancy, and to be honest, we haven't even thought about anything having to do with our anniversary. Maybe we will go out and have a nice dinner. I wish that we could afford to take a trip somewhere, but it's just not possible this year. We are planning and saving for a trip in a few years. I guess you could call it a re-do for our disastrous honeymoon.
How are you guys doing? We love you!
