A Wine-y Party

A few weekends ago, Reed and I attended the Blanks's 2nd annual wine-tasting Christmas party. We had SUCH a wonderful time! This party is truly one of our favorites! Here's how it goes down: the girls bring a bottle of white wine and the boys bring a bottle of red wine -- each wine is wrapped in a brown paper sack and identified by numbers (for whites) and letters (for reds) -- the girls group tastes one while the boys taste the other -- we mark on our sheets the different wines going from favorite to least favorite -- after much tallying the winners and losers are revealed! It really is so much fun to see which wines win and I must do a little bit of bragging...the stacys WON for favorite red wine!!! My husband is a great wine picker-outer! Thanks Shannon & David for hosting and inviting us to such a fun get together...we love you!!

The Egg Bowl 2010

I cannot believe Thanksgiving and the Egg Bowl have already come & gone...seriously, where does the time go?! Thanksgiving with the Stacy family was so great and very relaxing. Reed & I ate a TON (literally) and watched football for 2 days straight. I even braved the Black Friday crowds and got started on my Christmas shopping! We, of course, made the trek to Oxford for the Egg Bowl. I swear, there is nothing like the Grove...especially in the fall on a gameday. It was a special treat to hang out with the Carr fam too!! We miss them so much and always love getting together when they find the time to leave sunny Florida and head north. Needless to say, we have a lot to be thankful for - great friends, Oxford, family and the Ole Miss Rebels!!
