ORDINARY JOY

I've seen a couple of people posting responses to Reverb10's prompts. Obviously, I wasn't going to make it through 31 days of posting but maybe I'll play along for these last five.

Happy Christmas!!!

that is all

mixtape: holiday edition

definitely a favorite christmas song.

 

watch the scene in the family stone with this song. it makes my heart swell

snow day!

 we got dumped on here in michigan early sunday morning and all day yesterday.

i actually got a snow day from work. which is crazy because it is the last week of classes!

 it's been a lazy day which i love. i watched some bad tv and birdies play in these fire bushes.

sam is in kitty heaven!

a mini todo list for the rest of the afternoon: shower. wrap chirstmas gifts. put dishes away. make pillow for green chair and snakey things for the windows. play cityville was not on this list but i just spent the last 30 minutes playing this ridiculous new game. ugh.

pretty pink

I've got quite a thing for color, I'm always wearing at least a bit of it. Usually more than a bit. So it only makes sense to do a little shopping by color, especially with the release of Pantone's color of twenty11.

holiday spirit

1.   Holiday spirit fills me up, I love it. Of course, to be cheesy, I try to carry a little bit with me the whole year through. 

2.  The holidays are incomplete without  a tree, my funny family in a wrapping paper fight, Christmas tapas, the Polar Express.

3.  My favorite things to do around the holidays is 

4.  A holiday tradition my family and I have is  WWSW, Williams Women Shopping Weekend, food Friday night shopping Saturday

5.  Holiday music is   some of my favorite, I love that I can sing along. I can't believe I haven't already listened to some today. Thanks to this playlist from skunkboy for remedying that. I try my hardest to only listen during this time of year, to keep it special.

6.  This year, I'll be spending the holidays  Christmas eve at my house! with momma's big family, 

 

7.  Holiday wish list new gardening gloves, shopping spree at modcloth & anthropologie, a new metabolism so i can wear such cute clothes and still eat all the fantastic food i want, coffee, a new bedroom set, & gap socks.
