"Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened."
Dr. Seuss
It is with the closing of this year that I retire Cubicle Sanity.
My life is changing.
With the New Year and my new adventures I will introduce my new blog Texas to Tea and Toast.
From Houston to Memphis and on to London, and with all the rollercoaters that I will surely ride the next 15 months, I ask for your prayers, support, friendship, and love. And in return I will share mine.
A good deal of my Christmas Eve was spent with my two new favorites
Meet Truitt and Cecelia. Yea, I know, you wish they were yours.
The first part of the day involved a lot of active and "make the baby smile" time while our photographer worked on getting 1 good picture to use for our family New Years card.
Cecelia and I discussed which colors will look best with her eyes and skin tone while I toted her around like my a fabulous new clutch.
After a LONG photo session, brunch, and gift exchange, everyone washed their faces, put on their cozy duds, and settled in for a nice nap.
By the grace of the tired parents, Gran (my mom), Big (my dad), and the siblings with prior engagements, I lucked out with both nuggets in my arms and lap for 3 hours!!!
Give me a book and these two any day!
My brother called me a week before Christmas to ask me what I wanted (he is more of a "crunch time" kind of guy).
To his dismay I asked for these...
He thinks they are the most boring gift ever.
I think they will be stellar for packing all my shiz for London. And let's be real, they will be pretty kick a$$ to use. I just keep imagining how much stuff I can fit in and then cranking up the Dyson to suck all that useless air out.
This must be what happens when you turn 25...excited beyond belief for a new swiffer and vacuum seal bags.
