Finally, a house update!

A couple of more recent pictures of the renovation. Here's the front:


And from the back. The backyard is really sloped so we added a retaining wall so the yard will be more usable.

A list kind of day

I've been neglectful of my blog lately so here's a recap of what's been going on lately. In list form, because I love lists!

  • Finally joining a yoga studio and starting to practice more regularly
  • Spending a long weekend in NYC to celebrate my 30th birthday!
  • Seeing Wicked in NYC
  • Driving 2,241 miles - from Atlanta to Richmond, VA and back for both Thanksgiving and Christmas.
  • Shopping for and wrapping Christmas gifts
  • Christmas in Virginia with both families
  • Holiday parties, holiday parties, holiday parties
  • Self-assessment/review period at work
  • Making an overwhelming amount of decisions relating to the (re) construction of our house (pictures coming tomorrow!)
  • A low-key New Year's Eve celebration with dinner at one of our favorite restaurants, Wisteria, and a nice bottle of champagne at home with Jackson (he even gets a little sip!)
  • And since it's now snowing and freezing cold in Atlanta, I thought this little note that I saw on the fun blog of a fellow Atlantan was appropriate:

That pretty much sums it up! I hope everyone had a lovely holiday season!
