Much Anticipated and Long Overdue New Blog Post

Yes, I have been a major blog slacker...but I'm back. Each year I need a little break from the blog it seems.

Here is a quick run down of the last 2 and a half months in the lives of BGPR, Inc.

October:
~My Unce Dave, Aunt Linda and their three girls, Meghan, Katie and Amy came to visit from Chicago. :) We had a fun time with them in Florida! Here are a couple photos from a dinner at Caps.

Halloween:

~We took a mini-road trip to Hilliard, FL...specifically to Conner's A-MAZE-ing Acres. They had a corn maze, a pumpkin patch, farm animals, hay rides and other fun, festive activities.

 They had "Redneck Olympics" at the farm!

Me and Grant outside the maze.

On the way out there we passed a cotton field. I couldn't resist stopping and picking some cotton!

 ~We also took Reagan and Penelope to a costume party at the dog park. They dressed up as a Gators Cheerleader and a Gators Football player. We met up with Stephanie and her dogs who dressed up as Alice in Wonderland characters.

Reagan our QB!

Penelope our cheerleader with Ebi and Lena :

~VEGAS! We took our annual trip to Vegas for Halloween. We met up with Jordan and Ryan and Katrina and Dan. We dressed up as The Flintstones and had a blast!

November:
~In November we were able to get tickets to another Gator game and enjoyed our day in Gainesville.

~Later that month we were able to witness the marriage of Richard and Jenee is BEAUTIFUL Savannah, GA. Grant's parents joined us and we had a great time with them and our friends!

December:
~Grant's new company had a holiday party at the Jaguars stadium (EverBank Field) complete with Jaguars cheerleaders, fireworks, bands, a DJ, lots of refreshments, old school arcade games and Vegas-style table games. The dresscode was "coat and tie preferred," so it gave us a reason to dress up! It was a great night! I really enjoyed meeting Grant's new coworkers!

~Christmas card photos: We ventured to Atlantic Beach to take some fun photos for our Christmas cards. They had giant Christmas ornaments, lights and presents along the downtown area.

~Mintu's Birthday: For Mintu's birthday we went to Restaurant Medure to celebrate with Mintu and Mary. It was a fun night! :) Happy Belated Birthday, Mintu!

~Christmas: We had an amazing Christmas. We definitely spoiled our girls and each other. Here are some photos from our Christmas and Christmas at my mom's house.
