Caps 'n' Snow

Snow frolicking

The other night, big D took my brother and I to the Washington Capitals hockey game against the Carolina Hurricanes. With perfect timing, the snow started falling as we were leaving for the ice hockey game and it didn't stop until the next day. A good ole snowfall while I m still in the USA!

Warming up

Gettin' my American fix tonight

Unfortunately, the Caps lost in overtime, but it was a fantastic game and a great time with my boys. 

He never wants to take pictures with me.... lol

As we left, the snow was sticking in Washington, DC, which is pretty impressive for our southerly nation's capital. Super gorgeous, I couldn't stop with the pictures, to the annoyance of my male company. 

Happy Snow Day, DC!

Red, White, and Blue, Puppy Christmas

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

 And Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. As my mother says, the Christmas season lasts until January 6th (but as our tree tends to stay up infinitely longer than that, I think Christmas might last longer, too). 

With the holiday season, many things happen. And things like blogs, school essays, obligatory phone calls, exercise, get thrown to the wayside. With the New Year, all those things kind of pile up in the back of your mind again until you're so stressed you're wondering how you thought holiday shopping was stressful. 

Here we are, landed safely in 2014. We can follow the mode of all the other blogs in a couple of days with some New Year's Resolutions, but for today, I'd love to share some Christmas memories with all of you. 

I landed in Virginia around 10 o'clock on Friday, December 20th, and immediately hopped in the biggest pick-up truck I could find. Home sweet home! 

Christmas flew by with family, friends, and my adorable puppy Angus. It was his first Christmas with us, since last year he was a Christmas present. So I am unable to control the picture taking.

Besides puppy photoshoots, I've gotten to see a bunch of my friends. Me and the bestie met up for some Christmas Eve dining in some fancy clothing. 

Christmas Day was an all around success, with a lovely gifts exchanged, some yummy food cooked, and some tasty bubbly popped. It was a lovely week in Virginia! 

My brother wouldn't let me give him a Christmas kiss

My sister was a little perturbed at having to wait

My sister and I enjoy the scent of brother's new Abercrombie.

Angus' new scarf

Wishing you every blessing over the holiday season and New Year!!
