 - Once I FINALLY get Christmas cards sent out, this letter will be included :)  Dear Family and Friends, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I hope this letter finds you well. Where to even start?! Things in Austin Texas are great! This city has become my home. I love the people, the shops, the culture. I can't imagine living anywhere else. Over the past year I have made some amazing friends, discovered awesome places to eat and taken part in some extremely cool events. Some of the highlights of this year include taking 2 trips with my boyfriend Ryan to Santa Fe, NM to spend time with his family. We did a lot of sight seeing and A LOT of eating! The food and the sunsets in NM are unbelievable. My cousin Scott and his wife Melissa moved out to Austin early this year and it has been great to have them around! In fact, Melissa is working at Blizzard Entertainment with me! I made it out to California twice this year, the first time was to celebrate my Grandma Dodee's Wedd...

Here's the past couple of months in photos: The view from Mt. Bonnel where Ryan took me after we had dinner at the Cheesecake Factory My first attempt at my grandmother's tamale greatness. Got to see my adorable niece, who's not allowed to get any bigger!

MISS YOU!) Couple O Geeks in Love! This is Ryan on stage with his comedic heroes Tim and Eric So I committed to my Halloween costume all the way and dyed my hair blue... I'm actually kind of loving the blue hair for now! I was Ramona Flowers from "Scott Pilgrim vs The World" Josh and I went to the opening night for Harry Potter... it was AMAZING!  That owl is named Hedwig... so much win!
