it's on my list

 I've stumbled upon a wonderful little jewel in uptown Dallas, On Consignment, it's a home consignment store with furniture stacked to the ceilings and if you look all the way up they've got chandeliers galore. I snagged myself a William Sonoma Home chair for a steal. It's perfect for Jonathan's office. I'm so excited, I finally found THE chair - we've been looking for almost three years now. Pictures to come. Now, all I need are the right curtains and rod and the office will be done! Although, is ever really done? : )

I got the cutest stuff for New Years Eve today at Target - I'm ready to ring in the New Year.

don't give up

We had the most wonderful Christmas. It was so relaxing and fun. We spent Christmas Eve at my in-laws and had a lovely Italian dinner, opened gifts and then snuggled up to watch the Help. At midnight we loaded up the car and three holiday hounds, Jonathan and I headed to my parents house for Christmas. We woke up that morning and opened gifts until almost two in the afternoon - we got so many great gifts. Christmas dinner was exceptionally good this year, my mom made the most incredible beef tenderloin. Of course Christmas wouldn't be complete at the Tomlinson house without watching Christmas Vacation, we've watched that movie together every year since I was a little kid. I just love the holidays.

it's christmas time

I can't believe Christmas is only 6 days away. Almost all my presents are wrapped and under the tree, but I'm still waiting for a few to arrive on my porch. Hope they get here in time.

hello again

Yes, I've totally abandoned my blog over the last month. My last post was the day I'd found out I was pregnant, then exactly a week later had a miscarriage. I experienced the greatest joy and then the greatest loss. Some days are harder then others, but after seeing a new obygn I'm hopeful again. I've even found my Christmas spirit thanks to an incredible trip to New York City with my wonderful hubby. We had the most amazing time, the city really is magical this time of year.
