Bullet style Blogging

Some of you may have noticed my short absence to the blogosphere. I apologize. It has become increasingly difficult to keep it up. The thoughts of quitting my daily regimen of pics and posts has even flitted through my mind.....BUT I just can't do it! I miss it and all of you lovely readers TOO much, and so I will make sure to do better! What has happened in the last few weeks you ask? Let me see if I can do a quick bullet style catch up.....

• I cut my hair....It is short and layered with bangs and I don't think I really like them.
• I ordered an extra fabulous dress for my husbands company Christmas party next week! Can't wait to show you, just my style: formal wear!
• Ate three Thanksgiving meals....I am still dreaming of mashed potatoes and pecan pie.
• It rained here and I'm bitter about it!  ( December in Alaska should be snow!)
• I made homeade corn dogs...baked. They were YUMMY!
• My husband and I tried our hand at making an ice rink on the lake that his grandma lives on....it is WAY harder than you would think....TRUST ME! (the kids haven't skated yet) We even had major equipment like plow trucks, large water pumps  and such..... haven't given up though, maybe the kids will get to skate by Christmas.
• Watched ALABAMA defeat Auburn!   ROLL TIDE!!!! Can't wait for Saturday....SEC Championship!!!   FUN FACT:   huge football fan.
• Scored a few fun items at the thrift shops....more on that later!
• Booked two tickets to Costa Rica in January. Notice I only said two tickets and NOT five...Husband and I are going alone. Any of you been there? Travel tips please!!!
• I bought all the ingredients to make my first attempt at whoopie pies....today's project, I'll let you know how it goes
• More later...... the kiddos are starting to wake up and they usually want breakfast or something. 

Style post later today!
