This Month In Pictures

This month has absolutely FLOWN by! Work was crazy because of finals, i'm talking about almost 14 hour days! It was hard to find time to do anything other than work, but Taylor and I were able to have a little fun as well. We went to a couple of Tacky Christmas Sweater parties and even had a mini impromptu photo shoot with some ducks! Here are the pictures:

Smooches in front of the ducks!

Taylor and I went to the Carol of Lights on campus and it was COLD! Check out my nose :)

We also took Sadie and Coco out to get their pictures made. What's funny about this picture is when Taylor and I first met, he was very anti having an inside dog and by no means was my Coco going to set foot on his bed. What did I tell him 2 years ago? Love ME, love my DOG! Fast forward 2 years and 1 new dog later, it was TAYLOR'S idea to buy the dog's some clothes (they were 40% percent off...how could we not! haha) and he no longer has a problem with sleeping doggies on his bed at his feet!

For our first Tacky Christmas Sweater party, we went to Savers and found these tacky gems. Taylor paired his with his "sweet" green sports coat. What's funny is when we walked in, there was a girl there wearing the exact SAME sweater as Taylor! haha!

And last but definitely not least, our good friends Zane and Erica opened their home to host another tacky Christmas sweater party and we had a BLAST! Rather than buy more tacky sweaters, I asked my sweet Memaw if Taylor and I could borrow something from her closet. She was a good sport and let us pick whatever we wanted out of her closet, all the while knowing it was for a tacky party. I love my Memaw! Here are the girls in their tacky attire and my AWESOME vest was adorned with conchos, cacti, wagon wheels and cowboy Santas.....YES! :)

Hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!!! :)

Winter is Here....Sort Of

This morning it snowed here in the Hub and as of right now all the snow is gone! Lubbock weather is crazy, one day it's 70 degrees and the next we may have snow. Yes it's happened before! We are supposed to be getting more snow tonight, so we'll see what happens. The picture above is the view outside my window at work. I have a great view of the Admin building including the bell towers :)

On a tangent, yesterday Taylor did something really sweet and out of the blue. He picked me up from work and said that he had a surprise for me. He ended up driving us to Maxey Park to feed the ducks. We had fun watching all the geese flying in and land on the water and were surprised at their tenacity with each other when it came to food! Even though something so simple as feeding the ducks may not seem like such a big deal, it was definitely one of those "little things" that mean the most kind of moment. I'm a lucky girl.
