long overdue update

hello, laura. are you happy now?

so, update. here are a few photos of thanksgiving (also known as the christmas card outtakes):

sweet sisters


kissey, law student and the roxy

family at the egg bowl


thanksgiving successes: i brought wine and made a dish, so i felt grown up. my 5-year-old cousin jay is the cutest thing ever. my grandmother gave me her dream cookies recipe, so i will let you know how they turn out. msu won the egg bowl and i got to see tons of friends.
thanksgiving fails: dad being a jerk and the law student's cowbell was confiscated at the game. boo.

next up: nfp. we are successfully in month 2. no babies yet, thank you jesus. hopefully, this will get easier and more predictable, because right now i really miss birth control.

third: visiting friends. i got to do a lot of it this year! here are a few (more) photos of me most recently at jessica and chet's christmas sweater party, and a few others:


yay for pictures! now if i can just find my camera charger...

and lastly, christmas. can y'all believe it is already the middle of december? where did it go? and i still have so much to do. well, mostly just painting and wrapping gifts that come in the mail. yes, it is another amazon christmas for the langs. i love it--no shopping, no lines, no headaches (that i always get from shopping). just a click to ship and they are dropped off on my doorstep. i even have my tree up already--last week, in fact! this time last year, there was still 1 more week of law exams and the tree did not go up until the week of christmas. soon it will be flanked by brown paper packages tied up with string. i've probably spent too much again this year (more on that later), but am pretty satisfied. this week and next will be made up of parties, wrapping paper and packing, and best of all, JULES and MANDI!
haven't seen this girl in MONTHS
or this one.

we won't all be together this year for the first time EVER. so i'll finish this post (finally!) with a photo of what happens when we get together...


see y'all tomorrow. i'm just BURSTING with blog posts.
