The food was absolutely filling but amazing. I made my famous fruit pizza for the Nyberg's, and it was gone within a hour. I even found star fruit and no one had tried it before. I love star fruit but I don't think anyone enjoyed it as much as I do. Haha. Just as the holiday ended, December started! And a warm December at that! Our Christmas tree just recently went up and there are already more than a dozen presents under it. I wrapped all my presents today before I left for our family Christmas celebration in Baldwin!
My family Christmas is always held in Baldwin each year. It is a tradition that my entire family goes bowling. We have always done this since I can remember. Whenever you bowl a strike you get to unwrap a present. This year was the first year I had a strike in the first game! I'm normally terrible at bowling and after the first game I proved that, but I'm okay with that! As long as I'm with my family, that's all that matters!
Oh my gosh, I almost forgot the best part of December................EVAN GRADUATED!!!! I am so proud of him because I know how hard he studied and all the time he spent in the library and his professor's office. All his hard work has finally paid off and he has a degree to prove it! This marks a new chapter in both of our lives! We will be moving out of our parents house soon, FINALLY. Hopefully this will happen within three months. I CAN'T WAIT! Evan already has a job lined up with MetLife and he will start that soon :) I'm sitll working at rue21 and this holiday season is crazy busy!
I have a busy work week coming up, too. It's the week before Christmas and the mall hours have changed to 8am-10pm. It's a long busy day everyday. On that note, it's time for bed. With long store hours like that, I need all the sleep I can get!
Have a very happy Hanukkah to all my Dad's side and a very merry Christmas to all my Mom's side!
