Catching up? December 2012


Well, I promised a new blog posting last week and now realize the undertaking that would be to update on all we have had going on since NOVEMBER!  What a blog slacker I have become.  Hopefully this post will start to get me back on track.  ENJOY!!

December Fun

We decided not to do a lot of decorating for the holidays this year since we were packing for Grace and I to move to NC.  One of the things we did hang up was our Christmas card holder.  Boombah seemed to like using it as a resting place.


One of our favorite Christmas Murfreesboro traditions is going to the Christmas parade.  This year was just as memorable!

Grace's school had a nice Christmas party that the parents were invited to attend.

One of the many compromising positions 
we found Boombah in over the holidays!!

One night when we were packing, we almost packed Grace!!

Amid all the craziness we enjoyed relaxing some 
evenings by the light of the tree.

Boombah apparently loves M&Ms


Grace, Aunt SuSu and her new sock monkey

I think Boombah was afraid we would leave him behind

Arbor always knows the best presents for Grace!


Boombah's last trick in Murfreesboro


My last week of work at MTSU was busy but sad.  We have made some lifelong friendships during our time in TN and it was hard to say goodbye!!  My last day was bittersweet for sure!

My boss took me out for breakfast on my last day.  
My gift was appropriately wrapped in a black bag!

Though I asked no one make a big deal 
out of me leaving, they did anyway!

These ladies were the hardest to say goodbye to!  

Beautiful flowers from my GA


Leaving was harder than I expected and I was 
pretty emotional the week we left for NC.  
My last look at Womack as we drove away from campus early in the morning!

This was my view ALL THE WAY to NC!!


Being home in NC felt great and we jumped in to enjoying our time with family during the holiday!!

We also went to the Meadow Lights and FROZE our butts off.  It was worth it though to see the amazing lights and eat some yummy food!!

After Christmas we enjoyed some relaxing time.  We shopped one day and Grace and Troy enjoyed a Carolina game.
