hello lovelies!
I hope you all had a marvelous Christmas, celebrating the birth of our Lord. <3
My life has been so busy it seems. With Christmas, and New Years coming, lots of things are going on. *winks* All of last week I didn't do school, and I won't have school until next year. *wink wink*
Life has been pretty good. The first week in December my mom allowed me to drive Escape (though she had to be with) and we went and got coffee before picking up Felicity and Kate for the day.
Let me tell you. That rig feels so fancy! *laughs* It's the nicest rig we've ever owned.
We decided to do Christmas cards this year and I wrote out allllllll the envelopes and sealed them. It was a lot of work and I did end up getting carpel tunnel in my right hand and had to wear a brace for awhile but it's all fine now.
Spent the night at Damara's and we watched, "An Avonlea Christmas" #thebestandsadestmovieever
Went to a Christmas tree lighting... though I didn't end up making it to the actual lighting. Got there in a round about way, once it was already lit but got to see some neat things. Let's just say it was an "adventure" for sure.
Spent time with Kate. My niece is absolutely the most adorable thing ever. She talks waaaaaay more now and loves her "Ganpa", "Ganma", and "Guncle" *melts* Still hasn't figured out how to say auntie but I'm working on it. *winks*
Did a lot of Christmas baking! Tried something new this year too. None of us like frosting so we decided to paint our sugar cookie cutouts with food coloring. *winks* Clever, I know.
Did a couple of puzzles, drew, painted, and such.
Made my mom's mocha truffles for the first time!! It was actually a lot of fun but also a lot of wrist work. Which also led to my carpel tunnel. *laughs*
Driving has become more and more like it's always been there. I absolutely enjoy it and can't wait for March. *winks* Me and Damara have plans. *wink wink*
One night me and Daminika decided it would be fun to sleep by the Christmas tree so we each made cozy beds on the couch and love seat. (Daminika got the love seat but said it was actually pretty comfortable) It was super cozy. We didn't even really talk to each other. Just did our evening routine and then went to bed. But it was super cozy.
Me, Damara, and Danielle wrapped gifts for our grandparents again. This was our third year doing it, and it's a lot of fun! (since there are sooooo many grandkids, after a certain age, you no longer get gifts so that's why we are able to wrap them xD) PLUS! I drove myself there and it was such a blast! I don't know about you guys but I absolutely loooooove driving alone!
Lots of Christmas movies, and episodes were watched. #allthechristmasfeels
Had our big family Christmas! It was a little different I'll admit, but it was still a lot of fun. Since my grandparents moved, they're living in a trailer\shop so it was a little different. But where there's love, there's happiness. <3
Me and Damara had a little Christmas party\sleepover. We went to town, grabbed some snacks, and then brought all our goodies home, where we ate them, opened gifts for each other, and watched a good ol' black and white Christmas movie. <3 It was a ton of fun.
Christmas happened! Christmas Eve, and day was sooooo much fun! I loved both days and they were filled with such happiness. I took quite a few pictures of Kate so beware. *laughs*
The day after Christmas, me, LaKaysha, and Daminika all ran to town just because and we ended up buying some cute vintage clothes. I found a super cute skirt and I looooove it! It was a really fun day, plus I got to wear my new shirt and shoes. *winks*
Then, last Sunday we were all invited to Felicity and Josiah's so there are a lot more pictures of Kate, and her cousins. *laughs* *winks*
