i just finished my last day of work for the year. yeahhh! i will definitely enjoy the next 11 days off with my husband and our families. we are traveling tomorrow and won’t be home until new years day. after Christmas we’re spending five days in okoboji, which is a little resort town in iowa. i grew up there in the summers, and it’s where i was living when E and i started dating (it’s also where we got married). my grandparents have a house there so we are going to shut ourselves in and just hang out. we are thrilled to relax and spend time with family rather than in a cubicle. {don’t you worry; i’ll still be blogging!}

and now…can i get a drum roll please?! the winner of my very first giveaway is…
