Christmas in Texas!
Elizabeth and I spent about 5 weeks in Texas for the holidays! It was so nice to be with all our friends and family, and spend quality time with them all! Elizabeth loved all the attention and was so spoiled when we got back to SC. We have one more Christmas celebration left and we are anxiously awaiting Nathan's return home in the new year. Here are the pictures from our Christmas in Texas!!

Visit to Los Angeles to see Jenna!
One weekend in December I went to visit a good friend of mine from Charleston in Los Angeles! It was such a fun visit and I really enjoyed getting to hang out with Jenna and her wonderful family! 
Jenna and I went window shopping on Rodeo Drive. It was decorated so beautiful for Christmas!
The first night we went to see the show Wicked at the famous Pantages theater! I LOVED the show...definitely would recommend it!
My friend Jenna and I at an L.A. club...fun times!
Jenna and I went to Neiman Marcus in Newport for lunch one day. We had to try the amazing martinis they make! I had the Alpine White martini...doesn't it look so festive?
Jenna had the Lemon Drop martini!
Jenna and I attempted to go the Newport Harbor to see the infamous boat parade, but unfortunately it was rained out, but we wanted to try and see some lights anyway. Yep, it was raining!!!
The lights were still so beautiful!!
This was the view from my friend Jenna's parents house!! You can see the snow covered mountains in the background!! So pretty!!
On the last day we went to Santa Monica, and it was a beautiful day!!!
We walked along the pier for a while and took a lot of pictures of the beautiful beach!
Thanks to Jenna and her kind family for hosting me for the week!!!

Only 25 days to go...
Only 25 days until Nathan returns to the US, especially to South Carolina and home! Elizabeth and I have been in Texas with our family and friends for the last few weeks and I apologize for not keeping up with the website like I should. I decided to put a bunch of my pictures that I have been taking into a small slideshow to view. It starts with the Disney On Ice show that Elizabeth and I went to in Charleston with some girl friends. Then, we headed to Texas!! Elizabeth had SO much fun playing with her cousins, Kaitlyn and Kylie over Thanksgiving! We even had a big fish fry at my grandmothers house with our family and the girls played in the leaves all day! Elizabeth LOVES riding on Grandpa's horse, Carrot, and she loves to feed the horses grass at the fence in the afternoon. We even went to check on the ranch in Valley Wells, and Elizabeth enjoyed running around and playing in the old house...she even got to see an Armadillo! And, of course I have had a chance to hang out with my friends and catch up. It has been a great visit so far, and I will try to be better about posting recent pictures! Hope you all are having a wonderful Holiday season!!! I love this time of year!!!
