Santa came to Tallahassee a little early...

We've had houseguests this weekend, but they're gone now. We're still washing linens and some of us are enjoying them before they're put away until next time...

There's just something about a warm pile of blankets that this little man can't resist :)

My mom and sister came to visit this weekend and brought this with them...

Sorry that its crooked, but this picture will have to do. Years ago, my mom and I were in an art gallery and I fell in love with this painting. She later went back and bought it. And one day, I came home from college and saw it hanging in their bedroom. I was excited at first, and then I got jealous. I then found out that they bought it to eventually give to me. It was never determined when, but I was always told I had to wait until I was responsible enough and had a place for it.

Apparantly I'm responsible enough because it is now hanging on the huge wall behind the TV. It is a good thing that I have a HUGE wall because this painting is HUGE. I had no idea...

So last night, after a yummy Macaroni Grille dinner, my mom and I hung the beast. I HATE doing things like that. I've always relied on a man to do this kind of thing. But, in pure Carol style, she insisted that I don't need a man to do something easy like this. And she was right, because now I get to admire it every time I watch tv...which is a lot these days!!

Thank you Mom and Dad for trusting me to be responsible now. I guess I really am an adult now huh??
