Soo excited for Christmas Eve tomorrow. I have to work (boo) but hopefully the 1/2 day will go by fast. Our company decided to give us the 2nd off, too. So, now I only work on the 29th! Yay!!
And my uncle is here from Peru and we'll be able to get together before he goes back, very exciting as I have not seen him in 2 yrs.

Last couple of wks have been pretty busy and exciting. We attended the Santa Pub Crawl in Ybor. It benefits charity and it is just a ton of fun. We had attended in 2005 and 2006. This year we went with a few friends and were all dressed up. For the next one: santapubcrawl.com

We also went to Eric and Jen's Christmas party. This was the 10th yr, although I believe we have only been to 7, still a lot. It was a great time. We walked out with a bottle of Jack, not bad for the crazy gift exchange.
And we went to the St Pete Bowl to watch USF crush Memphis 41-14. We actually tailgated for about 3 hrs and were approached by 6 solicitors. Yes, I was thinking of putting up signs. LOL. But we had a great time with our tickets buddies and we're totally going to miss them. I have to "lease out" my seats for the next 2 yrs so I am looking for the right duo to accompany Jessica and Leo.



The greatest thing we accomplished this week was getting out our Thank You cards and Christmas letter. I know, talk about late! But, they are out and we are soo happy to be done with that.
Last and most important...
On behalf of hubby and I, I want to wish all of you a great Christmas (or insert holiday here) and hope you are all able to be with family or friends to share in these days.

Lots of peace and love for everyone.
XOXO- RW

This past wkend we celebrated 7 yrs of being together! Yes, 7!
We thought we might do something small and private as we have a super busy wkend. But I was just so excited about it (as I always am) to celebrate another yr with my hubby, that we decided to make it out to a nice dinner. We went to The Melting Pot and had a great time... and were super stuffed!


For our anniversary, I am going to post 8 things I love about Justin. Yes, the number 8 is significant... =)
8. When he mocks my "baby bird" act
7. The way he laughs sooo loud
6. How we can be absolutely silly and weird together and just laugh with each other
5. The look he gives me when he's "trying" to be slick
4. His eyes
3. His sense of humor
2. His kindness
1. The love we have for each other, I love him for it!!

Love him sooo much! Peace.
XOXO- RW

I know I am due when my last post was about how excited Thanksgiving is going to be...hi, 2 weeks later!
Thanksgiving was nice, we went to both set of parents again and had a very nice time. Stayed at my mom's and I went shopping with mom at 5am for our traditional Black Friday spree... so fun!!! Found some great deals!!My new phone...

Fri we went to watch the Hyde Park tree lighting but it took forever so we headed for dinner/drinks a little early. Justin and I did take a walk after dinner to see the tree, it was really pretty! Here is a nice one of Justin.


The rest of the wkend I spent w/ one of my BFFs for her bach party in St Pete Beach. We stayed out on the beach and had a great time. It was a little too chilly for us to lay out but we enjoyed the food, walks, drinks, and the club on Sat night. Overall, great wkend!! And a huge congrats to Jen and Doug!! Love you guys!



One of my other BFFs moved this wkend. Courtney and Brian headed out to Key West. Best of luck to you guys!!

And lastly, one of my fave concerts all yr, every yr: NBT8 from 97X was this past wkend. OMG, we tailgated and it was crazy but way fun. I love the lawn at Amphitheater, it gives you so much room. Great bands, awesome friends, fab time!!


Will post soon as we have a very busy Dec. Lots of love.
XOXO,
