Picture 24 Fallen Angel

This angel is SUPPOSED to be at the top of my Christmas tree.  I bought it in Iceland last year and put it up last Christmas (at least I thought I did).  This year, not so much.  I put it at the top of the tree, it falls down, I put it up, it falls down.  So I put it on the mantle next to the tree.  Perhaps I'll try again.

On Day 22, I made cookies for an upcoming work cookie swap.  I made chocolatey melting snowmen.

We went to an annual Christmas party tonight.  Unfortunately, due to the weather we had to leave early.  The ride home was awful!  I put two pictures because we couldn't get a group shot of everyone so we did two smaller shots.

I went out to dinner with two former co-workers.  We had a lovely time.  One of them gave me some delicious chocolates.  The other gave me a nice smelling candle and an adorable ornament. 

Picture 20, the joys of traffic

On the day of picture 20, I planned to get some Christmas shopping done.  Several of the places I needed to go were pretty close to each other and I just needed gift cards so I figured it wouldn't take long.  WRONG!  At one spot, the couple in front of me must have been buying out the restaurant because they took forever.  Following that, the lines weren't too bad, but the traffic was brutal.  It took me an hour to go what usually takes 15 minutes.  I was late for ballet and I didn't have time to eat dinner.  I did get a good bit of shopping done including a present for my aunt.

On day 19, my fiancé and I finally started our wedding registry.  They gave us this book to help. 

Picture 18

This was the second gift from my Secret Santa (received on day 18 of this picture thing).  It was packaged very nicely, but I didn't take the picture 'til after I ate some.  Oops.  I should also mention that it was very tasty.  She called it salted bark.
