Our Week with My Annual Ornament Exchange and Ian turning 21.

Hey Y'all! Happy Monday! I hope y'all had a great weekend. We had a great time celebrating Ian turning 21. I am going to recap last week and this weekend. 

Monday, December 1st- 

Ian to work, Ben to the office, Coffee and Jesus for me, and Ella off to school. I went to workout at Burn, Ran to Publix, Dropped off a gift to LA, washed our sheets and towels, I completed an order, typed out 2 blog post, got the FFA report sent to the President of the alumni for the meeting. 

Everyone got home and I made spaghetti for dinner. Cleaned up, showered, and chilled on the couch with Trixie by 7pm. 

Tuesday, December 2nd- 

Ian to work, Ben to the office, Coffee and Jesus for me, and Ella off to school. I read for a few extra minutes, then got busy doing things around the house including cleaning out the pantry. Trixie was enjoying Ella's bed! HA 

I got ready, Ben picked Ella and I up, we went to CFA for dinner and then to Addison's basketball game. 

We got home, got ready for bed, and crashed. 

Wednesday, December 3rd- 

Ian to work, Ben to the office, Coffee and Jesus for me, and Ella off to school. I went to workout at Burn. I went to Aldi for my ornament exchange food. I got home, put everything up, ran to Publix to get what Aldi didn't have, and picked up the $4 viral burrito hack from Chipotle. I ate lunch and Ella was texting me that she needed her syringe to rinse your wisdom teeth holes at school. UGH So Trixie and I loaded up and ran that to her at school. 

Look at Trixie. Are y'all tired of seeing pictures of Trixie yet? 🤣

Later that evening, Ben and I met Dixie and Keith at The Bistro for wine night! 

We got home around 10pm and CRASHED! 

Thursday, December 4th- 

Ian to work, Ben to the office, Coffee and Jesus for me, and Ella off to school. Then I got busy cleaning and setting up for my annual ornament exchange. 

I made a big charcuterie board. I forgot to take a picture before we started digging in. 

Love Dixie and Ava. 

and my LeLe and Ella.

Love these ladies too. 

Stephanie, Talia, Susanne, and Kayla. 

And Michelle, Rachel, Kathryn, and Katlyn. 

Trixie was loving all the attention. 

Such a FUN night! 

Everyone left, I cleaned up, showered, and crashed. 

Friday, December 5th- Ian's 21st Birthday. 

Ian took the day off, Ben to the office, Coffee and Jesus for me, Ella off to school, and then Ian and Kathryn headed to his dr's appointment. 

I went to workout at Burn at 9:30 and Kathryn sent me these pictures of Ian freaking out at the dr's office because they had to do a TB test! HA 

But first look at my 21 year old. 

Little cat from next door is enjoying the blanket I put out for her. 

After Burn, LA and I went to CFA for breakfast and to Bath and Body Works for candle days. Then I ran to Publix, got home, and worked on Ella's Senior AD for the yearbook. 

I did a few more things around the house before getting ready and Ben and I headed to Top Dawg to met the new hostess...

I had this martini and it was amazing. 

We all got home around 8:30, showered, and crashed. Ian and Kathryn drove to NC to visit her sister for the day. 

Saturday, December 6th- 

We all slept in, I cooked breakfast, we ate, I cleaned up, and did a few more things around the house before getting ready and heading to Burn by Rocky Patel at Truist Park. It's a cigar bar. Ian couldn't wait to buy a cigar and smoke it in public. 

We watched the first quarter of the GA game at Burn and then went to The Red Phone Booth. 

But first pictures in front of the tree by Truist Park. 

Putting in the code at the Red Phone Booth. 

We watched the second half of the game at RPB. Way to go DAWGS!! 

We left around 8:45 and got home around 9:45. We had a great time celebrating Ian. 

Sunday, December 7th- 

We slept in. Then Ben, Ian, and Kathryn went to Waffle House for breakfast while I watched church online. Then I got ready and headed to Publix for groceries. I got home, unloaded everything, and put Mexican veggie soup on to cook. Ella went to work, while I got busy cleaning house, laundry, meal prep, etc. 

Then Ella got home, got ready again, before going to Duluth to meet her new roommates for Southern for next fall. EEK!! 

We ate the soup and it was amazing, I cleaned up, typed this post, chilled, waited for Ella to get home before crashing. 

Cheers to another week y'all.
