Several months ago, about 10 ladies and I decided to start the plans for an amazing holiday couples shower for the lovely bride-to-be, Haley Walker and her groom, Michael Lawson. Haley has been a BIG part of all of our lives for a while, not to mention taken part in many wedding showers for all of us so we were thrilled to finally return the favor and do something nice for her! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The evening festivities were held at the WildeWood Country Club clubhouse and it couldn't have looked nicer! Something about Christmas lights and greenery around just makes everything look elegant and romantic. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We decorated the room with photos of Haley and Michael as well as photos of the hosts and her family over the years, and even hung their stockings at the mantle. All of the hostesses wrote a note including a funny story about Haley that were put on display as well. </div>

The food was spectacular! We feasted on Lobster BLT shooters, Andouille en croute, Coconut Crusted Chicken Tenders, and a lovely meat, cheese and antipasti display. Dessert was a strawberry and white chocolate mousse inside of chocolate shells-yum!</div>

November has been another busy month, but it's always one of my favorites. Most years it's because the Holidays are quickly approaching and the fall weather is here to stay (that's really not accurate in SC) but this year was even more special because I got to fly to the west coast and visit with the Lee's! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wasn't able to go in 2012 because of our wedding and the time off needed for that, so I knew I couldn't let another year go by without booking a trip. Of course the best part of the trip is getting to see my two adorable nephews and kiss their sweet little faces and listen to the funny things they do and say. They are both so precious and I love them more than their sweet little heads could ever imagine. Here are some pics from my trip:</div>

Tailgate spread. We made ham and cheese sandwiches (you know the really yummy ones with the butter, worcestershire and mustard on the sweet rolls..mmmmm), sausage dip and corn dip for those of you reading who like knowing that kind of thing :) Oh, and mimosas. Those are a must for an early game!</div>

I had a great trip and really loved being with my sister and her family. The only downside...Ryan called me Rebecca. That's right, not Bec-Bec, which has been my name since he first started talking, but my ACTUAL NAME! I don't think I'm a fan! Haha :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had a little trouble with our travels getting home, but no big deal! The important thing is that I got to spend some time with family and I loved every minute of it! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can probably guess how time has been spent between now and then....football games, work and spending time with friends and family-just the way I like it :)</div>

And if I totally bored you with my blog post, check out this video. If it doesn't make you smile than I don't have anything else for ya ;)</div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Haha-you get it right? I crack me up....Anyways, I have a lot of catching up to do because it's been BUSY! Football season seems to do that to us. But work has also been very busy for both William and myself (which is a good thing)! We've been working hard, but also found some time for play too :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I had a work conference in Nashville, TN which worked out great because my flight was out of Charlotte and that just so happened to be where we were going bridesmaids dress shopping that same weekend! It worked out perfectly! We had a great day of shopping!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia;">October came around QUICK and that meant it was time for more tailgating and fall fun. I got to go to the Luke Bryan concert with a SUPER fun group of girls. It was his "Farm Tour" and that is exactly what it was. Seriously, the night ended with cows surrounding our vehicle. It was a lot of fun....but next time I think we will try to get a parking spot closer to the main road :) </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">On a side note, we lost my sweet step-grandmother Mrs. Lillian on Monday. She was a precious woman who loved her family, good food, shopping and all things celebrity entertainment (seriously, isn't that hilarious?). She adored her grandchildren, and all children really, and never met a stranger. She will be greatly missed. Momma's are such important people in our lives. Whether they are moms, stepmoms, grandmom's or just a friend who happens to be a mom, there is just something special about them. Hugs and kisses to all of the very special mommas, past and present, in my life. Love you all! </span></div>

My Favorite Sister-in-Law is getting married!!! Yay!!! Haley and I are truly like sisters. She is sweet, thoughtful, beautiful and a fantastic friend. It makes me happy to see her so happy! So when Michael popped the question a few weeks ago and she said "yes" there was some celebrating that had to be done!</div>

Wow. I've been a terrible blogger....again. Sorry guys. I know you've given up on me but here I am! I promise to be better, and this time I really mean it! There has been a LOT that has happened since the last time I've blogged. </div>

Fourth of July weekend came and we had our annual Lippard/Lee/Londry/Walker Sunset Beach family vacation. Which I can tell you is always a great time, but for some reason, this year felt especially, well, special. Maybe it's because we had some new additions to the group or started some new traditions, but it really was an absolute blast. All photo credit goes to Seantel, she is FAR better and taking pictures (and blogging) than me.</div>

Right when we got home from Sunset, I started my new job as Membership and Marketing Director of The Members Club at Woodcreek and WildeWood. Kind of a mouthful, huh? I'm really enjoying it so far and I keep getting lucky with sweet coworkers too. Thank goodness! That can really make a transition difficult when you don't work with nice, helpful people. </div>

I went in reverse order of my birthday festivities, because it actually started off with a PARTY! Yay!! That's right....food, drinks, games and friends. It was the best time I've had in a while. The only downside? I didn't take any pictures of the games in action-boo!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I saw a blog that described a "fun night in with friends" with Minute-to-Win-It games and I was totally sold. Anyone who knows me knows that I am a competitor, a lover of most games (count me out if it's Monopoly-that moves too slow for me) and I like to WIN! I mean seriously, who likes to lose anyways?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lots of friends were able to join us at our house for cocktails, apps, sliders, hot dogs and all the fixin's before the games began! </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We decided that we would time each team for each "event" and would score based on the quickest time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First Place: 3 points</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Second Place: 2 points</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Third Place: 1 point</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Fourth Place: 0</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At the end the team with the most points is the Minute-to-Win-It champions!! And guess what?! My team (Team 3-woop, woop!) took home the W! <br />
<br />

After a little celebrating, the night wrapped up with some birthday cake (complete with THIRTY candles) and a serenading of Happy Birthday from all of my guests. What an awesome night! Thanks to my husband, the Kelley's and the Swygerts for pulling it all together. I love you guys and really appreciate you making my turning thirty such a fabulous affair!</div>

Well, I am actually very much feeling like I'm 30 since I've been home from my girls vacay for two days now and still don't feel 100%, but boy was it worth it! I can without a doubt say that I have some seriously fun friends. They made my turning thirty feel totally awesome! </div>

Haley and I headed down early Thursday in order to get the beach house ready for everyone and get some sun since Haley had to leave late Friday for a bachelorette party in Savannah. It was great to have some sister in law catch up time too.</div>

This is Rebecca singing "Total Eclipse of the Heart". It was the best karaoke performance I have ever seen. In. My. Life. I'm talking the people were out of there seats- coming from the bar to see what was going on onstage! The crowd was going wild!! Amazing. Just amazing.</div>

A girls vacation is just what the doctor ordered. Spending time with some of my favorite girls was the perfect way to ring in the big 3-0. I love you all so much and it means so much to have you all in my life. We sure did have a lot of laughs on our trip and I think it will go down in history as one of the best birthdays EVER! If this is how thirty feels than count me IN!</div>

Over a year ago, William's grandparents gave us a SUPER generous wedding gift- a select registry gift certificate. Select Registry is basically a membership that various inns, bed and breakfasts and luxury hotels are a part of. So basically, we had nearly 400 places to choose from for some vacation time together! Isn't that awesome??<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As our one-year anniversary approached, we decided to pick somewhere neither one of us has been that also wasn't too far of a drive....and the choice was made: St. Augustine, FL! When we booked I had no idea that we were going to be visiting the nation's oldest city. How cool, right?? AND it only takes about 4 and 1/2 hours to get to St. Augustine-bonus points! It's only about 30 miles south of Jacksonville (just in case you wanted to know).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There was so much to do. Lots of shopping, places to eat, things to see....and we tried to do as much as we could, while still relaxing some too of course. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We left Columbia Thursday night and drove down to Tybee Island, GA to get a head start on the trip. Friday morning we got up fairly early and made it into St. Augustine around noon. First stop was the St. Francis Inn to get some materials from them. We actually selected to stay at their condo at the Comanchee Inn right on the harbor. It was a really nice place, and the view was beautiful. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We went straight to lunch at O.C. White's (as recommended by the Innkeeper) and had a nice cold beer and a delicious lunch. We shared the blackened mahi sandwich and the garlic shrimp. Yum! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After wrapping up lunch we headed over to the condo to check in and then headed over to the pool to get some sunshine in!<br />
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
An ice cold Shocktop to start off the trip!</div>

Dinner was a suprise from my Mom and Stepdad! How thoughtful! I should've known she was up to something when she asked me to send her the link to where we were staying :) They sent us over to The Reef , which was voted the "Best Seafood Restaurant in St. Augustine"! It was delicious and the oceanfront view was gorgeous. We had the calamari, grilled scallop tostadas and then split some crabcakes! I think the scallop tostadas were my favorite part of everything we ate the entire trip. I will definitely be recreating them at home sometime this summer!</div>

Saturday we started off with breakfast on our porch and then headed off to the marina for our kayak excursion. Our guide gave us a great history lesson as well as showed us some beautiful areas of the marsh. She took us over to the fort (the Castillo de San Marcos national monument) and also the world's tallest cross! The plaque on the cross says that it "marks the approximate site where in 1565 the cross of Christianity was first permanently planted in what is now the United States." That's right -- Jesus arrived in America here first, over a half-century before the Pilgrims even touched their toes to Plymouth Rock! Pretty neat I thought! <br />

After kayaking, we headed over to Mango Mangoes for some shrimp tacos and a cold beer before relaxing at St. Augustine Beach for a few hours. You can drive on the beaches in St. A which was quite interesting to me.... you just don't see that in SC!<br />

After a little beach time, we headed back to the condo and got showered and changed before walking over to dinner at the Kingfish Grill, which was right beside our condo. We feasted on oysters, shrimp, scallops and William had the shrimp and grits. This place was cozy and nice, right on the water and the ambiance was very comfortable.</div>

Sunday! Our official anniversary!! We began with breakfast at Fish Tales and then headed off to the St. A Alligator Zoological Park. We got here early in order to beat the crowds and I'm glad we did. There was A LOT more to see here than we expected and it was all really neat. We even learned about the largest croc to ever be discovered, Gomek. He lived at the St. A. Park for a few years before passing away. But they have an entire almost "shrine" built for him there. That sucker weighed 2,000 lbs!! Craziness....<br />

After the park we did a little sightseeing in the downtown historic district. Shopped a little, stopped for a drink at the White Lion Pub, checked out the live music at Scarlett O'Hara's and then ate some lunch at the The Backyard of Meehan's Tropical Pub. We had a delicious crab and shrimp dip, followed by a beef brisket stuffed chile relleno. YUM! </div>

After stuffing ourselves we did what anyone would want to do-put on our swimsuits! We traveled over to Vilano Beach and basically took a nap :) This beach was different from St. A beach because it was almost all shells. It was kind of hard to walk actually! It was nice out though and we got to see some surfers show us their skills!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We wrapped up beach time and headed back to the condo for a champagne toast (yes, that's our wedding day flutes AND champagne, I'm so thoughtful, I know) we headed over to Harry's for our last meal in St. A. Harry's has the most beautiful courtyard where we decided to spend our evening. There was a guy playing music and the whole vibe was just perfect. We shared some fried green tomatoes for starters, and I had the tilapia shrimp meuniére and William had the red beans and rice with smoked sausage. It was a great time with great service, and great company too of course!</div>

There was a storm rolling in that night so we ended the night after dinner and then made our way back to Columbia first thing Monday morning. We had a fantastic trip and it was a wonderful idea to go somewhere new and explore. Here's to another fun year!</div>

There are times in my life where I find myself saying, "last year at this time I was.....". This usally happens as the year wraps up but it is exactly what I've been doing this week. William and I are coming up on our first wedding anniversary and it is exciting, emotional and completely crazy that we have already gotten to this point! It sure has flown by!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I spent some of last weekend going through my wedding organizer and boxes of wedding "stuff." Looking at all of the shower invitations, wedding dress magazine cutouts, napkins, bubbles and all of the special things that were a part of the wedding planning process was just amazing. I even found a few napkins from the wedding day- I kept everything! It was hard to hold back the tears as I thought about the excitement that was taking place last year. We are truly blessed with such wonderful family and friends.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had just bought our first home, William was in the process of starting his own business, and we were about to begin our lives together. Oh gosh-I'm tearing up now! We have done so much over the last year as a couple, and I have to say, while it hasn't been easy the whole time, I am so very thankful that I have William as a partner in life. He is such a hard worker and does his best to make our lives better. He also makes our yard look great and lends a hand keeping the house clean too *bonus points :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are a few of my best memories (in no particular order) of our first year as husband and wife. We have done so much it was hard to narrow it down to just these few!</div>

This weekend we are traveling to St. Augustine, Florida to celebrate our first year of marriage and I couldn't be more excited. Since our honeymoon, we really haven't been on a vacation (just the two of us anyways) so this will be a great time for us to spend together having fun and just relaxing....and I'm sure doing some reminiscing of how far we've come. Here's to many more years of excitement, changes and lots of laughter!</div>

Do I have that song stuck in your head now?! It sure is stuck in mine :) As most of you know, William and I were SO excited to get our newest family member a few weeks ago. Introducing.....Miss Sally Mae Walker. Isn't she the cutest?? Sally is a golden retriever and came to us from Maysville, GA on April 14th. She is irresistibly cute and has brought a lot of happiness to our home. She's enjoyed meeting some of her extended family and can't wait to play with some of her friends she hasn't met yet. </div>

I tried to get a picture of her super cute collar that her Aunt Haley gave her, but she's so fluffy it's always covered up! In case you were wondering, it's grey with white polka dots complete with a pink daisy :)</div>

This is not an April Fools joke. I REALLY AM updating the blog.<br />
So much to post about, yet I have been MIA. Well, have no fear. I have returned and I am determined to get back on track! <br />
<br />
There has been SO much going on over the last few months! In order to discuss one of the most exciting times of 2013, I've got to take it back to February when we made the trek to New Orleans for Super Bowl XLVII to cheer on the 49ers. <br />

What an amazing time we had, with one exception (the final score of course). I think we can all agree that the comeback was pretty awesome-I mean it wasn't looking too good until the blackout! It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and I'm so grateful we were able to go and enjoy it with family and friends. <br />
New Orleans was an amazing time and I can't wait to go back one day and visit.....and of course eat some more delicious cajun food! <br />
<br />
I promise to be better about updating! Thanks for your patience :)</div>

This is a post I started a while ago but never published. But since we are heading to New Orleans for the Super Bowl, I thought it was great timing to post a delicious "cajun meal." Cajun Chicken Pasta isn't the most traditional New Orleans dish, but it would be delicious to cook up while you're cheering on the 49ers next Sunday! </div>

This idea was inspired by one of my favorite cooking blogs, the Pioneer Woman. As many people know, I love browsing recipes for ideas and then making my own "version." Also-I should note that my measurement system is very much a guess. I'm sorry to those of you who like to have exact measurements-it's just not my style! This meal isn't easy on the waist line-but man was it yummy (and of course created before the new year). Plus, it's okay to indulge every once in a while, right? </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Season your chicken with the cajun seasoning mix and then start browning in the olive oil and butter mixture.....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNUG8ufnxijvQma5Ic5gOhuEG-BwRRHd_SrN1Y6POPcCFewcKC4-6mxC2eiOok66PHliM_HyUGm4lnXwHYR5uiU_QU-h_Iq88ISMarnc1Lm4lpA2XUdTTXlerJPl7WsSMBiiM9UjrGeIZ_/s1600/IMG_0482.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNUG8ufnxijvQma5Ic5gOhuEG-BwRRHd_SrN1Y6POPcCFewcKC4-6mxC2eiOok66PHliM_HyUGm4lnXwHYR5uiU_QU-h_Iq88ISMarnc1Lm4lpA2XUdTTXlerJPl7WsSMBiiM9UjrGeIZ_/s320/IMG_0482.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then do the same with the sausage-(forgot a picture of that one) It might be even tastier to do that in reverse order. The smoked sausage "drippings" will flavor the pan and will give your chicken an extra layer of deliciousness (just an after-thought).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Add all of your veggies and sweat them out until they are starting to soften but are still a little crisp. I would recommend adding the tomatoes towards the end (so they don't get too mushy) and seasoning with a little more cajun spice mix here too.....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Remove your veggies and add the chicken stock-whisking along the way until it's good and bubbly and reduced a bit too. You want to pick up the good "stuff" on the bottom of the pan. After it's reduced add the cream, along with a couple of dashes of hot sauce and worcestershire and let it bubble and thicken up. Once your sauce looks, well, saucey- add everything (meat and veggies) back into the pan.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And it will look like this!</div>

Don't forget to boil your pasta in some salty water in the mean time and throw it all in too. Then-it will look like this! The pasta will also soak up some of the sauce at this point so it won't be as liquid-y (is that a word?!). </div>

This weekend will go down as one of the most exciting times we have had yet! We were able to travel to Atlanta for the NFC Championship game for the 49ers vs. Falcons game. Holy moly was it a nail-biter! But the best part is....WE WON! Yay! The Niners are Super Bowl bound and I couldn't be happier for the team, especially my brother-in-law, Andy and my sister Rachel. I know she is so proud and so are we! What an incredible experience! </div>

I forgot to take pictures, but after dinner we headed up to the Sundial Lounge at our hotel. It's on the 73rd floor! SUPER high! The lounge area rotates around very slowly so while you're enjoying a cocktail, you also get a view of the city. It was really nice. </div>

It was a busy weekend and has been a busy week so far-sorry I haven't updated at all until now. I know you all are terribly upset :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Last weekend, I was able to have a "girls night out" with one of my best friends, Rebecca Swygert. We visited one of our favorite restaurants, Gervais & Vine, for Columbia Restaurant Week. We love to share and sample different things so it turned out perfectly. We were stuffed, but not too stuffed to head out for our Rebecca Squared tradition-some karaoke! We always have a great time together and it was really nice to catch-up. Rebecca even gave us a sweet gift, a canvas painting or our sweet boy, Henry that we lost a few weeks ago. It meant so much to both of us and William immediately hung up the picture in our guest room. I don't have a picture handy, but it really does look just like him, and he's on a boat like he used to always join William fishing. It was such a sweet and thoughtful gift and really meant a lot. We love you!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The second part of the weekend was spent celebrating with the Rogers Family, some of our most favorite people! I ventured over to Elizabeth's 4th birthday party on Saturday and had a blast! The party was held at Chapin Christian Gymnastics and there was so much to do (even for adults)! Trampolines in the floor, rope swings into foam pits, balance beams, uneven bars-it was super fun! I can't believe how much Elizabeth has grown! I heard her saying such cute things to her friends like "thanks for coming to my party, guys!" and "Guess what, I'm 4!." Such a fun personality already!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The next day, we headed to Clark and Kelly's church for Hannah's baptism. What a sweet little angel she was! She was so quiet and precious throughout the entire service. Because I am Hannah's godmother, I even got to stand up during the baptism with the family. It was a really special time for all of the Rogers family and for us as well. We are so glad to have such good friends whose children's lives we get to be a part of! And it doesn't hurt that they are SUPER cute :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The other part of our weekend involved football. The 49ers sent the Green Bay Packers packing (literally)-so...................Guess where we are heading this weekend??? The NFC Championship in Atlanta to face the Falcons!! WOO HOO! This is the 49ers second NFC Championship appearance in the last two years, and this time we are confident that it's going to lead to a trip to the SUPER BOWL! How exciting, right?! Most of our family is making the trip to Atlanta, and we are all so excited. Although we would've preferred the Niners to have a homefield advantage, it sure did work out well for them to be so close to our neck of the woods! GO NINERS!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are some old pics of the family supporting the Niners-more to come after the weekend!!</div>

Well, here we are. Already a full week in to 2013. So you know what that means-resolution time! AND-back to the gym! I fell off the work out wagon months ago and I'm slowly getting back into a routine. Man-it sure is tough after a 3-4 month hiatus. I can give you LOTS of excuses as to why I haven't been exercising....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Work was SUPER busy!!<br />
2. It was the holidays, guys!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. I had a lot of after work obligations!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. Day light savings time kicked in-who wants to drive to the gym in the dark?!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Should I keep going? The truth is.....I was just being lazy. ME, lazy?! Shocking, I know. But then, there was proof. My pants were getting tight and I started thinking-time to get back on track (after new years of course!). So here I am I am on the adventure again....the never ending cycle of making a resolution to eat better and exercise regularly. It's only been a week back in, but I have managed to work out every day so far, with the exception of one. Not bad! I'm going to try my best to stay ON the wagon this time. Trust me-starting from scratch will remind you how sore you can be :)<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Besides that, I have made a few other resolutions:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong>1.</strong> <strong>Show a random act of kindness to a friend or family member at least once a month.</strong> I have decided that this can be a hand written note, an inexpensive gift, a homecooked meal or treat. Anything that will be a suprise to them and hopefully make their day. This one kind of reminds me of the "Friends" episode where they ask the question: Is there such a thing as a truly unselfish act? One in which someone benefits while the person performing the act receives nothing in return? Joey believes not.....Phoebe sets out to prove him wrong. (Remember that one?? I love that show :)) I think Joey was right though-I think I will also feel very rewarded by sticking to this resolution.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong>2.</strong> <strong>Say no more often.</strong> I tend to over-commit to things. I joke about it all the time! "You know I can't say no!" I am a people pleaser. A "yes" girl if you will. As much as I love having a plan, and saying "yes!" to another glass of wine, I need to learn when my plate is full (literally). I worry too much about disappointing others, but in reality I have to put myself and my husband at the top of the list.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong>3.</strong> <strong>Stop Worrying!</strong> I stress to much about little stuff that always ends up working out. Less worry=less stress. Sounds good to me!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What are your New Years Resolutions? Are you sticking to them? </div>

Well Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic time over the holiday season and spent some time celebrating with family and friends. We stayed pretty busy over my almost two week vacation from work, it sure was tough getting back into the swing of things today! We started off with our first house party. We had a great time cooking, decorating and of course having wonderful friends and family over to celebrate. Here are a few pictures from the celebration:</div>

William and I also got to spend our first Christmas together. Since we've been dating, William has always gone to Signal Mountain, Tennesee to spend time with his family, and I have always stayed here to do the same with mine. This year was my first trip to the mountain, our first Christmas together, AND our first as a married couple! We really had a great time. We spent most of the days there stuffing our faces with delicious treats, chatting with everyone, and even made time for some card playing. I had heard so much about how special the "house on the mountain" was, and it was so nice to finally see it in person. William's mom, Jayne, even made me my own stocking. It had my name cross-stitched on it and everything! It made me feel so special and excited to be part of such a wonderful family. Here are some pictures from our trip.<br />

My what you may not know this week is not a happy one. With all of the fun that we had over the holidays, we unfortunately also lost a very special part of our family. William's dog, Mr. Henry, went to dog heaven on Friday, December 28th. He was a precious dog that everyone couldn't help but to love. He was always spinning in circles with excitement, leaning on top of you when you were close and exhibiting unconditional love, especially to William. We loved him very much and will miss him forever. We are so glad he is not in pain, but will miss him dearly.<br />

Well it's Wednesday again! And you know what that means-it's time for round 2 of "What you may not know Wednesday!" Try to contain your excitement :) Last weeks edition focused on Christmas, and with it being the last Wednesday before Christmas it's all I really have on my mind. So here goes....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. One of the best gifts I've ever gotten (for Christmas) is the jewelry armoire William made me a few years ago. I mentioned I needed something to organize all of my jewelry in and sent him a photo of something really neat I had found on etsy. It was really the only mention I made of it. He and his grandfather managed to craft something much more beautiful that I had expected. It meant so much that he took the time to build something just for me. He's the best :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. My next most treasured gift is one that my sister, Rachel, made for me in 2011. She put together a book of pictures (and captions) of my oldest nephew, Ryan. It is something I will treasure forever. I wouldn't mind another one of those for Adam (hint, hint)! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. My favorite Christmas song is O Holy Night. I just love it and it gives me chills every time I listen to it. With that said, I get completely pumped when any N'Sync, Stevie Wonder or Mariah Carey Christmas song comes on the radio. I'm a big fan of Christmas music. Big.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. We are having a Christmas Party on Friday night and I am SO excited. I am making probably way too much food and thinking about it WAY too much but I just look so forward to getting friends and family all together-especially around the holidays.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
5. I became a godmother this week! I know-it's not technically Christmas related, but I felt so honored and special and I just love all of the Rogers family and I'm so humbled that they thought of me. I am lucky to have so many friends that feel like family. Thank you for loving me as much as I love you all!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If I don't get a chance to blog again before Christmas, I hope you all have a wonderful and safe holiday. With everything going on in the world today, I hope we can all find it in our hearts to remember the reason for this special time of year and tell the ones we love the most how much they mean to us. I am truly blessed and thankful. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Merry Christmas! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />Rebeccahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12357868841133781514noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2259879370095989884.post-38012294650568356492012-12-12T17:00:00.002-08:002012-12-12T17:00:51.324-08:00What You May Not Know Wednesday<div style="text-align: center;">
In an effort to get some comments going on this blog, I thought I would open up the floor for some sharing. Now don't get too excited just yet-it's really pretty simple. I thought that, perhaps, I would designate Wednesdays as a time to share a list of five things you may or may not know about me. Bonus for me, I like making lists :) Sometimes there will be a theme, and sometimes not. So here goes the first edition of "What You May Not Know Wednesday"<b>-<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Christmas</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;">style</span></b>.....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>1. </b> When I was young (maybe 3rd or 4th grade) my Dad wrote initials on the bottom of all of our Christmas gifts. Rachel and I had them all figured out pretty fast days before Christmas. For instance, HA2= Home Alone 2. It was kind of a bummer at the time, but now I think it is pretty darn hilarious. Who can guess what FW was?? Gosh, we got a lot of movies that year....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>2. </b> Speaking of Home Alone, it's my favorite Christmas movie. I mean the one-liners in this one are just classic. "Buzz, your girlfriend-woof!" "Keep the change ya filthy animal!" "You're such a disease!" "You guys give up, or ya thirsty for more??"I mean I could go on and on...It's silly and funny, but still manages to capture the Christmas spirit. Kevin McAllister, you're the man. Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer-you are also the man. And a close second. Thanks for figuring out the Abominable Snowman just needed a dentist, he was super scary up until then.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>3. </b>Sausage balls remind me of Christmas. My mom used to make them for our annual family gathering each year, and it was the only time they really came around. We went crazy over them (and still do). Whenever I make them I think of her and all of our family gatherings around the holidays.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>4. </b> We used to do caroling and "toasting of the trees" at each neighbors house in our cul-de-sac growing up. I think it was more like a traveling cocktail party for the adults but it was fun for the kids too. One year, one of the parents had made jello shots. Of course, being maybe 10, I had no idea what those were and I gobbled up quite a few...and then felt pretty funny. When I told the neighbor "mom" I liked her jello, she warned me those were for the adults and to stay away. Oops. Guess that was my first "buzz." </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>5. </b> This Christmas will be the first one I have been able to spend with my hubby and I am very excited. We are both very close with our families so we have always been separate, until now! We are going to Tennessee this year and I am so excited to see how the Walker/Rose clans do Christmas. From the sounds of all of our emails, I know there is going to be lots of yummy food, and lots of family fun. And that is what the holidays should be!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

What a wonderful time of year! What are some of your favorite Christmas movies or memories? </div>

I look forward to getting in the kitchen, turning on the food network and going to town. I know-NERD ALERT! There are a few "stand-by" recipes that we repeat from time-to-time, but I often like to mix things up and make something unique. This year, for Thanksgiving, I was assigned the sweet potatoes. Now, they have never really been my favorite. I think it's because the majority of the time I have them they're covered with marshmallows or brown sugar and pecans, and it's just too much for my taste. So (while I was a little bummed with my assignment) I decided to change things up and make a savory sweet potato dish and the search began. I found a recipe for sweet potato and andouille soup and it was a HIT! Here is the recipe and link for this recipe. <br />
<h2 class="kv-ingred">
Ingredients</h2>
<!--concordance-begin--><br />
<ul class="kv-ingred-list1">
<li itemprop="ingredients">3 tbsps vegetable oil</li>
<li itemprop="ingredients">1 1/4 pounds sweet potatoes (this ended up being 2 medium/large sweet potatoes)</li>
<li itemprop="ingredients">1/2 pound andouilee sausage (I removed the casings and browned/crumbled)</li>
<li itemprop="ingredients">1 cup julienned onions</li>
<li itemprop="ingredients">1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic</li>
<li itemprop="ingredients">1/4 teaspoon cayenne</li>
<li itemprop="ingredients">1 quart chicken broth</li>
<li itemprop="ingredients">1/2 cup heavy cream</li>
<li itemprop="ingredients">3/4 teaspoon salt</li>
<li itemprop="ingredients">2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives</li>
</ul>
<!--concordance-end--><br />
<h2>
Directions</h2>
<div class="fn_instructions" itemprop="recipeInstructions">
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. <br />
<br />
Coat the sweet potatoes with 1 tablespoon of the oil and place in a small baking dish. Place the baking dish in the oven and roast the sweet potatoes for 50 minutes to 1 hour, or until the potatoes are fully roasted and fork tender. Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, remove and discard the skin from the potatoes. Reserve the sweet potato flesh until ready to use.<br />
<br />
Heat a 1 gallon stockpot over medium-high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil. Add the andouille to the pot and saute until most of the fat has rendered and the meat is well caramelized, stirring constantly, 5 to 6 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the andouille and drain on a paper-lined plate. Set aside until ready to use. Add the onions and saute until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the minced garlic to the pot and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the cayenne pepper and chicken stock to the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer. <br />
<br />
Add the roasted sweet potatoes to the soup and stir to blend. Simmer for 10 minutes, then blend with an immersion blender or in batches in a bar blender until smooth. Return the soup to the pot, if necessary, and stir in the heavy cream. Season with the salt and if necessary more pepper. Garnish with the cooked andouille, chopped chives and serve.<br />

Everyone loved it and I think I am now a fan of sweet potatoes! The only changes I made to the recipe was that I added some chopped celery (just because I had some in the fridge) and a bay leaf (removed before blending). BONUS-I got to use my immersion blender that I got from my friend Seantel as a wedding gift-love it! If you don't have one, get one. It's a wonderful tool to have, especially if you like making soups and sauces. It was delicious and definitely one that we will repeat. I just served it in small ramekins garnished with andouille and chives for the Thanksgiving meal, but a whole bowl would be filling enough for a meal for sure. <br />
<br />
Another new creation that you might enjoy for the fall is pork and green chile stew. It is a hearty meal that will warm you up on a cold night-and it is SUPER easy. The crockpot definitely starts making a lot of appearances when the temperature starts to drop so I was excited to try this one out. I used this recipe but (as usual) made a few changes. We like spicy around our house so I added quite a bit of hot sauce, a can of black beans, a diced green pepper and added some emerils essence, thyme, bay leaves and oregano as well. We topped ours with some avocado, jalepenos and tortilla chips-YUM! I'm sure if you weren't a pork eater, chicken or beef would work well here too. Give it a try and let me know though :) Here's the recipe and link to the website where I found it!<br />
<div>
</div>
<div>
<strong>Ingredients:</strong></div>
<ul>
<li>
2 lbs* boneless pork loin roast, lean, all fat trimmed off
</li>
<li>salt and pepper to taste
</li>
<li>cooking spray
</li>
<li>2 tbsp unbleached all-purpose flour
</li>
<li> 3/4 cup diced onion
</li>
<li>2 cans (4.25 oz each) whole green chiles, sliced into thick rounds
</li>
<li>2 tbsp chopped jalapeño, or more to taste
</li>
<li>10 oz can diced tomatoes and green chilies (Ro*Tel Mild)
</li>
<li>1/2 cup fat-free low-sodium chicken broth
</li>
<li> 1 tbsp cumin
</li>
<li>1/2 tsp garlic powder
</li>
<li>salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste </li>
</ul>
Directions:<br />
<br />
Cut<strong> </strong>pork into 2-inch pieces. Season with salt
and pepper.<br />
<br />
Heat a large non-stick skillet on high heat; when hot
lightly spray the pan with oil and brown the pork over medium heat on all sides,
about 3 - 4 minutes total. Sprinkle 1 tbsp of flour over pork and stir to
cook 30 seconds, sprinkle remaining flour over pork and cook an additional 30
seconds. (I just coated the pork with seasoned flour before browning).<br />
<br />
Add browned pork to the crock pot, along with the remaining
ingredients (I sauteed the onion and bell pepper in the pork drippings before adding to the crock pot-why not?). Cook on LOW for 8 hours or HIGH for 4 hours (if using
a Dutch oven, cook on low heat for 3-4 hours). When done, adjust seasoning and add salt and pepper to taste if needed.<br />

I just had my last work event of the season this year, so hopefully I will have a little more time to blog! Sorry I've been slack (Kelly :))</div>

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and is looking forward to Christmas!

Well I know I sound like a broken record, but really-where is the time going? First it was "man-this summer flew by!" And now here we are with just WEEKS-yes, <u>WEEKS </u>left in 2012. With Thanksgiving right around the corner, I thought I would write about some of the most special people and things in my life. The ones that I am so very thankful for. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
My husband. Thank goodness for such a patient man. One who makes me laugh and supports me even when I know I can get a little crazy. William had an amazing work opportunity that had him out of town the first two weeks in November. While we have only been married a few short months, it really made me realize how much he does for me (and Mr. Henry) with him not being around. He rakes the yard, keeps the kitchen tidy, feeds the dog, takes him for walks, and most of all-lets me be me (and of course keeps me entertained!) :) I am so blessed to have such a loving partner in life. </div>

My sisters. All of them. There is something so wonderful about having a sister. Someone to confide in, depend on, laugh with, be silly with, dance with, cook with, cry with, share with and someone who will forever love you unconditionally. I am so thankful for all of the sisters in my life, I love you with all of my heart. <br />

My parents. I am lucky to have not 1, not 2 but now THREE sets of parents. Mom and Jimmy, Dad and Lillian, and my newest set-Newton and Jayne, better known as the Walkers (or Newtie-baby and Mama-Jayne depending on who you are). They are all wonderful people and I am so very lucky to have them all in my life. I do have to say something in particular about my in-laws. When the talk of William leaving for a few weeks (which happened to also be the same date of a large work event for me) they stepped right in. They came and helped me with set-up, bought tickets to attend the event and made me feel so special. They are such caring and kind people who genuinely wanted to be there for me, and it meant so much. They did not have to do a thing, but instead they did far more than I could have ever expected, and for that I am so grateful. I wish I had a picture of us all at the event but alas, I forgot to take any :( So here we go again with wedding pictures.....<br />

My job. I know, I know....what? It stresses me out to no end, I complain about it <strike>non-stop </strike>occasionally and it give me nightmares. But, I am lucky to have my job, and I am fortunate that I can say that what I do helps others. And I am very thankful for my coworkers. It is nice to have a team you can rely on and who "get it" when you need to vent about work-related stuff. Sometimes your hubby just can't relate or will just try to "fix it" and make you mad -haha (y'all know what I'm talking about here, right?)</div>

Sometimes we tend to overlook the things in our lives that are most important. We get wrapped up with work, social obligations, even family commitments, and forget to just live in the moment and be thankful for what we have. I am so guilty of this at times. In fact, this morning I noticed that my "flip book of quotes" has been on the same quote for weeks-who knows, maybe months (years?). I walk by it everyday, more than once and haven't even noticed. But this is what it said:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"The best and most beautiful things in this world, can not be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart."</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
What a true statement and an honest and simple way of looking at things. I am looking forward to the holidays and being able to spend time with the ones I am most thankful for. The ones that fill my heart with love and happiness. To me, they are the most beautiful things in this world. I am so thankful they are in my world. Happy Thanksgiving!</div>

Tailgating is so much fun. Delicious food, getting to see all of your friends, college football, cornhole, ice cold beer.....the list could just go on and on. We are fortunate enough that our group all gets into theme-ing out the tailgate and we like for our spot(s) to look good-I think we've grown into about 6 total. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And when I say good, I mean people can hardly stop themselves from asking for a bite of food or dropping their jaws when they see our amazing cornhole boards. Seriously. In fact, a kid dragged his mom back to our tailgate a few weeks ago asking for a pig in a blanket. And not just any pig in a blanket, a pig in a blanket made with hebrew national hot dogs. Class, people. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So this past weekend we decided to do a "mini" theme-bite sized versions of our comfort food favorites. Here's us on our way in along with some of the delicious treats from the tailgate! </div>

We really do have a lot of fun. So next time your tailgating-stop by spot 422, but keep in mind, you won't wanna leave. Rumor has it that the last tailgate before the 2012 election (October 27-Tennessee game) there will be a "Bring your Best Dish" tailgate theme complete with voting (ballot boxes) and someone will be elected Tailgate President. It's going to be awesome. Promise :)</div>

You are probably all familiar with my main man, (boy) Ryan. He is incredibly smart and cute but his sweet little brother, Adam, is growing up right before our very eyes and I wanted to make sure he got a spotlight on the blog. Adam is a chubby-cheeked, cute-as-can-be little guy that (like his older bro) I am unfortunately not able to see as often as I would like. I got to bond quite a bit with Adam at the beach this summer. Not trying to toot my own horn or anything, but I think I might be one of his favorites :) Aunt Bec Bec LOVES her boys SO, SO much!</div>

So most of you know that I have two of the cutest nephews in THE WORLD. Since my super awesome sister, Rachel, has taken quite the hiatus from the blogging world....I thought I would show you what these two adorable rascals have been up to. I miss them SO much and wish I could experience these moments in person. But for now, this video is as close as it gets.</div>

Y'all! Remember how much I said I love weddings?! Well guess what?! One of my BFF's got engaged over the weekend! YAY! I am so happy for Paige and Ryan. Paige and I met a few years ago when I started working at WLTX. We became fast friends and she was a bridesmaid in my wedding earlier this summer. We talk on the phone every morning and always have a blast together- and I just couldn't be happier to see her as a bride :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here they are:</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Aren't they adorable? They went away for a long, Labor-day weekend getaway and came back an engaged couple! As long as I was working at WLTX, Paige always had a photo of her "dream ring" which was a canary yellow diamond. Well, she got it!</div>

I was able to visit with the happy couple on Sunday night and had the best time talking about all of the exciting things ahead for them! <br />
<br />
A few months ago, Paige and I bought a living social deal for a "wine and design" night out. We had never done something like it, but had heard it was fun, and we were right! Paige, Kate and I went to the class together. We were told we were very entertaining :)<br />

We had a great time, but man was it HOT! We're glad next week is a 7 o'clock game so that we won't have to deal with the heat AND we can focus on our theme. We are going to try to incorporate a them into each weekend if possible. Mexican, Italian, Southern, Minis...the possibilities are endless! We all have a great time coordinating and planning. Can't wait to see what all this season has in store, although I am hopeful for at least cooler temperatures :) </div>
