Nate the Funny Man

I needed a headshot of Nate for a Christmas project I was doing, and this is what I got! What a goofball...

Turkey Day

We celebrated Thanksgiving with our friends, the Wombough's. After slaving in the kitchen all day long and cleaning my house like mad, we had a nice late dinner. We tried deep fried turkey this year, and it was delicious! After brining and marinating and dry rubbing and injecting the thing like crazy, it really was amazing. The dry rub turned it black so we thought the outside of the turkey got burned, but after tasting the skin, MMMMMmmmmm! I think we might stick with the deep fried turkey from now on! After dinner, we were joined by other friends for dessert, the Klafke's. By 9:00, Sara had dropped from all the excitement.

I am Thankful For...

• chocolate-not just any chocolate, but the really good stuff, the IMPORTED stuff. I can rarely eat anything else. I would rather not if it doesn't taste right!
  
• kickboxing-my favorite exercise class! Try it, it makes you feel so good (if you judge that by soreness)


• the various drawings that I find taped on walls throughout the house, mostly of Star Wars guys


• pretty things, wether it be pair of shoes or the beautiful Beaufort landscape...this place really is beautiful. I think I would go crazy living here if it wasn't!


• the late night talks/laughing sessions with Andy. We have the most fun when we are both a little punch drunk from being tired, and that boy really puts a smile on my face.
  
• the little "I wuv you's" from Sara...so precious, it melts my heart every time


• Southern food, a new found LOVE


• going crazy everyday being home with my kids


• a wonderful husband who knows and understands that I need to get away from the kids in order to keep loving them


• my three little protectors, wether it be from mortal danger or themselves
