I just got home from doing some MORE Christmas shopping … man oh man do I hate venturing out into malls or any sort of shopping area during this time of the year….everyone is just so hyper, ruthless, in a hurry and the list goes on! I waited in one of the longest line ups I have EVER waited in today … BUT now I am home… I am just about to make a Soy Hot Chocolate, sit down, and start wrapping some gifts….for me, this is the fun part because I like to get creative when wrapping….bows, ribbons, extra add-on’s …this is the fun part ;)
I always wrap my gifts near my Christmas tree and village….something about it just really gets me into the mood! All while listening to my lovely Christmas Harp CD…J hates this CD but I think it sounds so magical…it is probably because there are no words/lyrics! haha ….but that is what gets me into a more relaxed and calm mood amongst all this craziness!!
P.s. remember how I told you guys I am obsessed with costumes and have a crazy little treasure chest full of them?! WELL….I found this little “Candy-Striper”' number at Value Village a little while ago for $3 and thought it would be perfect for Christmas….YES I am one of those “nuts” who dresses up in Santa hats and red sweaters at Christmas time…and this little skirt…no exception ;)
During this time of year its REALLY hard for me to do outfit posts…Christmas, Vacation, I'm booking ANOTHER trip, and so many other things right now …so I hope you understand….I love you all…I love my anons who keep messaging me for more :P… I love your feedback…comments…well wishes…I just LOVE YOU all!! jeeeebs ….can I write it enough??!!
I might post a few more vacation pictures once I get all of them organized =) AND will try to get an outfit post to you guys this weekend …. I will most likely be doing more Christmas-y posts because….well….Its one of my favourite holidays
I hope Santa is good to ALL of you this year ….
off to drink my Hot choco <3

it's because you're just oh so lovely.
that's why we keep pressuring you to post more often. i don't really care about outfit posts (although they are awesome!), just reading about your life is so refreshing and down to earth compared to some other blogs.
i always enjoy hearing what you have to say :)
Great post! You have such a cute place! The christmas vibe is definitely there! And you look great with that cool candy thing haha!
Lovely outfit-and wow. Thats quite a few presents! :))
