Falling Behind

Once again, I find myself playing catch up. I spend a decent amount of time reading various blogs throughout the day [how awesome would it be to get paid to blog?], yet I never seem to have the right motivation to work on my own blog; even when I have something awesome to write about. Here's what I [we] have been up to since September:

  • Traveled to Bogota, Colombia - Peter spends about 50% of the time in Bogota, so I went down to visit him. And I must say, I love Bogota.
  • Photo Shoot - I realized a few months ago that Peter and I haven't really had any photos taken since our wedding, two and a half years ago. We had a fun photo shoot with Angie from Angie Brement Photography.
  • Made bread with my friend, Lesley - I seem to struggle with this on my own.
  • Thanksgiving with the Mantell's.
  • Black Friday shopping - Pretty successful, if I do say so myself.
  • Decorated the house for Christmas, including a real tree [that I'm allergic to]
  • Christmas Coke - It's not Christmas without Christmas cans of Coke. Yeah, it's weird.
  • Saw Mannheim Steamroller in concert - While I was expecting more of their rock-influenced songs, it was enjoyable. We had great seats thanks to my in-laws.
  • Peter's birthday - I made Peter a sushi-themed fondant cake, thanks to Lesley! Not having my own Kitchenaid makes things difficult, as well as having never actually worked with fondant before. Lesley made it happen :) I also got Peter a soda maker, so he can make his own soda and flavored water. Also, thanks to Lesley. His birthday present turned into his Christmas present since it couldn't get here in time [and I freaked out].
