My year on Twitter in 2012
For those of you that are active on Twitter you should really check out Vizify. It’s a sweet site that came out a little while ago that lets you see what you tweeted about in 2012 in a visual infographic of sorts. It’s pretty interesting to see what were the most popular things that you tweeted over the last year. For me, my top three keywords were marketing, team and #HookEm. Check out my full year on Twitter here.
crazy christmas trees
I appreciate creative Christmas decorations. The guy and I had a late lunch at one of our favorite spots, 24 Diner, and they went and put Christmas trees upside down on the ceiling. It was such a fun, creative holiday surprise.
Christmas Present #8

- For Christmas surprise #8 I was not sure what it was because it was so heavy and in a big square box…

- …turns out it was Dave’s Coffee Syrup which is quite tasty and a great present from the Girl as usual!
Christmas lights during the night and day
Has anyone else ever noticed that Christmas lights during the day just look like a huge mess but when they are lit up they are beautiful and awesome? My case in point is below from a recent trip to Mozart’s Coffee here in town.
A photo from the night the Girl and I got engaged when we stopped by Mozart’s first when it was still a surprise and it looks awesome!
The same lights but during a recent morning coffee run we took to Mozart’s. They look like someone just threw up a string of lights on the side of a building without untangling them.
Christmas Present #4
I don’t know know how the girl does it, but she always knows what I need! For Christmas present #4 I was on the road on a work trip and I needed something to write with and right before I went to some gift shop to buy some, I got some super awesome fine tip pens! What a pleasant surprise.
What could it be?
Sweet pens!
Christmas Present #2
I have always been a bit jealous inside of this very soft and warm looking pair of socks that the girl has and wears around the house when it’s cold outside….but I am jealous no more! For surprise #2 I got a pair of moose socks that I’ve already started wearing around the house. Happy days!
Moose socks…you know you want a pair.
A goose sighting
I just got back from a recent work trip to Denver and I had a goose sighting! I kind of forgot how large of a bird a goose is, but when you see them up close as you’re driving through a neighborhood it’s a reminder that they are quite large birds. Speaking of which, did anyone else know that geese were frequent in Denver suburbs? Because it was a surprise to me!
what I bought at the mall today
I volunteered to be in charge of the gift donation drive at work this year. I “adopted” some kids from a local organization, made the little angel tree with the ornaments, and waited. Pretty soon, we had mountains of presents, and a bunch of donated money to buy the rest of the gifts.
I went to the mall this morning to search for a pair of shoes, and a kind of perfume, and an iPod, and other little gifts on their lists. But I hope it wasn’t really “things” I was buying. I hope that I spent that donated money to help the kids feel like someone cares about them. That someone is on their side and thinks they deserve to be happy.
It makes my heart happy that some people are good, and remember what Christmas is for.
Christmas Present #1
My fiance has decided that she is going to try and Christmas me the hardest this year (even though I won just for this year because of this by at least a slim margin) and she has developed a super fun plan of giving me one present a day until Christmas starting on 12/1. It’s awesome because they can be anything!
Christmas present #1 was being eyeballed by Marley a little bit…
And it turned out to be a super sweet Evernote moleskin notebook that I’m able to take on my work trip this week! I can’t wait to test it out because supposedly I can handwrite notes and then take a picture of it with my app and it will digitize my notes for sorting later! Stay tuned!
