Now that my school schedule has slowed down MAJORLY, I can now get back to blogging and update this more often! Recently, we have been VERY busy with school and getting everything ready for the holidays. This year we had our families down to St. Augustine, and it was so much fun! My family came down on Tuesday night (which was my dad's 50th birthday). So when they got here, I had the house decorated and we went to dinner at A1A Ale Works. Then on Wednesday, I got to enjoy time with my family at Universal Studios/Islands of Adventure. Ryan's family got here on Thursday morning and we enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner together. That afternoon we went and saw the new Harry Potter movie at the IMAX theater and came home to take a short nap. At 11:30pm we began black Friday shopping and literally shopped until we dropped at 6am! Friday was my birthday and we mainly rested and went to dinner at my favorite restaurant, Olive Garden. Saturday, we watched history as the South Carolina Gamecocks beat the Clemson Tigers 29-7 (this was the first time in 40 years to have 2 years with consecutive wins by the Gamecocks!) GO COCKS! The next couple of weeks are pretty exciting, yet busy for the 2 of us: final weeks of school/final exams, watching the SEC Championship game, going to Mexico for a wedding, spending time with family and friends for Christmas in both Lexington, SC and Morehead City, NC. Here are some recent pictures of what's been going on in the Hicks' household:
