 Just when I think that it's going to slow down, it only gets faster! Our couch finally arrived and I LOVE it. It really makes our living room feel bigger and we actually like sitting in the living room now. 

 One of our favorite neighborhood places has started doing game night once a month and this month was Bingo. We had a lot of fun with our friends!

 Winners got choice of some prizes and I won this rope beer holder. I know you're jealous.

 We've a ton of rain, which has been a little depressing. The Pearl River (below) has been really high lately. After our friend's wedding the other weekend, we drove across the Spillway to see what it looked like. The water is flowing so fast, it's foamy.

But that rain turned into snow! I still had to go to work, but it was a lot of fun to go photograph all the students in the snow.

 Of course there is always stuff to do in our neighborhood. This past weekend was the album release party for our friends' band, The Furrows.

 We've been enjoying fantastic breakfast the past couple of weeks for these special breakfast events the coffee shop next door was doing called "Mom, Breakfast Doesn't Taste Like It Used To." Different couples came in and made different dishes they grew up with - including this past Saturday with turkey sausage and apple bake and guava and strawberry stuffed french toast. Amazing stuff.

 Please have a moment of silence with me for the beautiful mid century dresser we almost bought this week but it was too long. Where, oh where, are all the mid century chest of drawers? Looking for something streamlined, but it really needs to be taller than it is wide. Humph.
