I cannot believe it is already 2012! I hope you all had a great time ringing in the new year. The Womacks sent 2011 out in style...on the couch. It was actually a nice NYE, just going out to eat and spending time together as a family.
I have enjoyed reading all of your posts about the holidays, and I finally have a chance to sit down and share mine. We had a great time in Texas visiting with family and friends and celebrating the most wonderful time of the year. It always goes by way too quickly, but it was also good to come back to Nashville and start settling into the new year.
Our break started with the wedding of our dear friends, Nicki and Alex. After dropping Max off in Longview with my parents, we headed down to Houston for the party! We had such a great time celebrating and catching up with close friends from college.

We headed back to Longview on Sunday and spent some time with my family. It was really great having time to just relax, eat, and enjoy family time! I was really excited for our family gift exchange because I finished my grandmother's quilt! While it was fun to watch everyone open the gifts we gave, I was most looking forward to this one. Here is the completed quilt!

My grandmother collects quilts, but has never had one made for her. I made this using some doilies that her grandmother and grandmother-in-law made! This was such a special project for me and I'm so pleased with how it turned out. Here she is opening it up!

Unfortunately, I was really bad with the camera this year, and didn't get many pictures of the rest of our family. Maybe I should add that to my list of new years resolutions?

| Christmas at Nunna's! |
On Christmas Eve, we headed to Rockwall for Christmas with the Womacks. We had so much fun visiting with family, especially our nieces. They NEVER run out of energy so there was lots of play time while we were there.

We are always sad to leave Texas, especially when we don't know how long it will be until we're back. But we returned to Nashville hopeful for the new year and all that it has to offer. Come back tomorrow for a review of 2011 and my resolutions! I know most people have already done this, but better late than never, right?
The quilt is so beautiful Lyss!! That is such a special gift. Wish we could have been on more coordinating schedules this year but hopefully we will see you soooon! :)
