Day 30

Christmas Eve :)

Day 29

Fun day at work, fun night with friends, but forgot to take pictures of my evening out so, instead here is a pic of some of the gifts I received today.

Day 28

Just relized, I never posted this last month...Did a little last minute holiday prep tonight. Baked some peanut butter fingers for some of my co-workers. Don't have any good pics so here is a pic of some decorations from the kitchen where I spent a good chunk of time baking today.

Day 27

Had a lazy night after work and Zumba and spent some time catching up on my blog.

Day 26

So I forgot to take pictures today. I even did some fun stuff after work today, but didn't bring my camera (plus I probably would have looked silly taking pictures at dinner and at trivia). However, I did bake a cake for a co-worker and bake some cookies.

Day 25

Went out to dinner with my best friend and we exchanged gifts. I usually don't wear rings like this, but I'm lovin' this ring she gave me, especially the color...

Day 24

Went to a birthday party, did some baking, watched some Christmas movies, and finished (I hope) those last few Christmas cards...

Day 23

Went to a Christmas party. Had a great time.

Day 22

It was red day at work so I worse these shoes and a red sweater.

Day 21

Went to a Yankee Swap and ended up with this, not a bad gift.

Day 20

Have been spending time wathcing Christmas movies, including this one...

Day 19

Time to put on these shoes and dance (I went to a jazz dance class on day 19).

Day 18

We have cowboy/girl day at work once a year. I don't own a cowgirl hat so one of my co-workers gave me a Christmas present, which included a cowgirl hat. :) I hadn't even wrapped her gift or filled out her card, but she had her gifts all set to go early.

Day 17

Many (but not yet all) presents are wrapped now...

Day 16

Christmas Party Time

Day 15

Another delicious treat I baked for the holiday party. Made these on day 15 (though the pic was taken on day 16, oops).

Day 14

I spent some time baking after work on day 14 as I was hosting a Christmas party that weekend. Here is a picture of one thing I baked, snowballs.

Day 13

Yikes, I've been slacking on updating this blog. Okay so I didn't take a picture of anything significant on day 13 so here is a picture of my planner alerting me that I had a meeting at 7:30 on Weds. It was a good meeting, albeit a little early. :)

Day 12

I confess, I really like watching "Ellen," but it is a rare occassion that I am home from work in time to watch it. However, day 12 I was home in time to watch. Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of that or of anything else I did that day so instead I took a pic of a tv to represent that I watched "Ellen" on tv.

Day 11

This is a picture of my empty lunch bag. Why is it empty you ask? Because on day 11 I got to go to a workshop and the workshop provided a delcious lunch. So instead of my usual salad, chips, and fruit, I got chicken parm, a salad, fabulous mashed potatoes, green beans, and chocolate cake.

Day 10

The outdoor lights I got on day 9, weren't as big as I thought so I splurged and got one more decoration since I had a coupon. :)

Day 9

On day 9, I decided the outside of my home needed to be a little more festive so I bought these guys:

Day 8

On day 8, I woke up at 5:07am and could not fall back to sleep. So when I finally got home from work (and a few errands) I spent the rest of the evening here:

Day 7

Day 6

I spaced taking any good pictures today. I should have taken one at the Pampered Chef party, but since I forgot here is one of the receipt instead. Boring, I know, sorry!

Day 5

And here is why those cards from day 3 had to get moved.

I needed room for...my Christmas village

Day 4

I was feeling loved from all these cards, but it was time to take them down so I could put up the Christmas village.
