Made the decision to go ahead and decorate on Thursday: We haven’t finished painting the living room or finished the new mantle – but I couldn’t wait; if I’d waited on all that to be done we’d probably wouldn’t have put the tree up til February. Ha. So excuse the unfinished mantle, but it’s nice to have the tree next to the fireplace. Looks nice ...
Sorry I haven't posted since last week! Obviously Christmas kept me busy, and then it was back to work. I have the next two days, the weekend, and Monday off. I'm super excited about that. I'm staying home, chilling, doing some artwork, some puzzles and some sewing. So here's the recap. Friday was Christmas with the bigger side of my family. It actually went by much faster than usual. Food ...
I'm at my grandmothers :) spent the day reading, napping, and shopping. Did some drawing, too. Here's some crappy pics from my cellphone. Black Canary and Huntress, i need to clean this one up a little proportion wise, but Id liked to finish it. The classic trio, been reading harry potter all day so felt the urge to doodle them again. Luna Lovegood and Ginny Weasley. I never drew Luna back ...
We've been busy! Friday night after work, we went out to eat and then ran over to Oak Court mall. I've always loved that mall but we don't get over there very often. We had 2 things on the agenda: christmas presents, and also, new clothes for Chase. He's wanting to get a few more "professional" looking things, for lack of a better word - just things that look nice when ...
1. Eggnog or Hot Chocolate? I don't really care for hot chocolate, but since I've never had eggnog, I'll have to go with hot chocolate. 2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree? When I as little Santa sat them under the tree. Now we wrap everything unless it's too big. (No kids to surprise.) 3. Colored lights on tree/house or white? both, right now we have a ...
Friday night Chase and I decorated the house. Chase put up the tree while I put out everything else, we had Elf on the TV and I baked some cookies. It was fun :) Here's a few crappy cell phone pics. Not a lot new on the tree this year. Nothing geeky (didn't see any we had to have from Hallmark this year) - we just picked a few cute things ...
Merry Christmas! We had a fun Christmas Eve yesterday. We got gift cards, clothes, etc. We got up this morning and opened our presents to each other. I got new boots, Ame-Comi Huntress, little princess figures (Snow White and Aurora), a book on Tudor England, "Up" on dvd, and lots of other little goodies. I can't wait to get dressed and wear my boots LOL
Our first Christmas was really nice :) I got a new laptop bag, a really nice top hat for my Zatanna costume (the one I had at dragoncon was a rental), a new external harddrive, lolcat magnets, the new dvd shelf we wanted, a wine cooler (LOL yeah we drink so much wine), lots of new clothes, etc. Also a freaking GIANT harry potter statue - I don't know what I'm ...
We came back from Mema's last night, it was the usual fun & madness. Got lots of stuff, and Chase and I got a huge framed Return of the Jedi poster and decided it would be from both of us to both of us LOL Some pics. I realised after taking this first picture that my mother set it out wrong, she had the shepherd and Joseph mixed up, LOL. ...
Ok, saturday was seriously the weirdest, craziest, most insane day in my life, EVER. To preface all of this, the past several weeks at work, including this last one, have been insanely busy, as in I've been staying an hour late (sometimes more) and getting home completely exhausted. Some nights we don't even get to go home, because we've been slammed with wedding vendor meetings. Well, we do go home ...
