As the calendar page flips to January once again, it’s time to sit back, take a deep breath and realize all we have to be thankful for in 2011. Around the halls of Big, this year was what some might term a “hum-dinger.” It was a year of incredible growth, progress, awards and expansion, and one that we are deeply thankful for. So, let’s roll down a list of some the highlights.

Not only did we add a new baby to the family, Hans August Montgomery, we also were blessed enough to add 7 new people to the roster: Jordan Sowards, Julie Ward, Shaydah Rabiee, Brittany Sanders, John Perry, Ryan Brown, and Niki Lim. And to bear all of that growth, we were able to take over the rest of our building and add 9 new offices in the new wing.

Birmingham was recently given a distinct honor from Southern Living by being named one of the top 10 Tastiest Towns in the South. The list is a who’s who of culinary excellence around the region, from Charleston to New Orleans to Houston. And while many other cities can claim their own unique cuisine, no one else can claim that their town is the birthplace of the Southern Gourmet movement. We, however, can.

So, for all of our friends in and around the great State of Alabama, we humbly ask you to do one, simple thing: cast your vote in favor of the Magic City. Share this link with everyone you know and make sure you vote every day until January 31, 2012.

Around here, we love art – especially the kind that’s inventive, smart and culturally on point. One of our favorite local artists is a fascinating painter by the name of John Lytle Wilson. He’s known for a lot of things, namely painting terrorizing robots into seemingly pastoral settings you’d normally find on the wall at MeeMaw’s house. And when he’s not using robots, he’s probably using monkeys running amok with modern technology. Call it a commentary on the cosmic progression of humanity or the ultimate blend of smart, precise and brilliantly colorful art, we call it outstanding.
