This Chrismas

Merry Christmas everyone!! I can't believe another Christmas has come and gone! I was beyond excited to come to Indiana to hang out with my fam and celebrate Christmas and it's kinda sad to me that in 30 minutes it won't be Christmas for 365 more days! This Christmas has been a bit different for me than other one's on the past. Growing up causes somethings to change. I like change and adapt to it well, but there are things that I don't ever want to change and when they do, I have a hard time dealing. This Christmas was also very random for me. There were a few things that happened that were unexpected.

This was the first year we didn't see my grandma on Christmas Eve...she passed away earlier this year. We weren't that close but not seeing her, not getting another change purse (that I would never use) and not forcing myself to eat a piece of her(nasty) fruitcake was sad to me. We had Christmas with sister, Adam and Korbin three days before Christmas because of work and other family commitments. It was a lot of fun butI hated waking up this morning and not having Korbin here to open presents and to play with.

I sang O Holy Night last night at a Christmas Eve service at my parents church. Yes, I sang...by myself...in front of people! I hate singing in front of people so it was a huge deal for me. I got so nervous and scared-so silly of me! I may have volunteered myself (and my momma!) to be bell ringers for the Salvation Army! It was as awesome as it sounds! We got to wish people a Merry Christmas, ring bells and raise money for people in need....and wear cool aprons! I was getting bored with the same usual bell ringing so I jazzed it up a bit and decided to dance and sing-it worked! People actually gave money because of my dancing and singing! And no, the money wasn't for me to stop dancing-I was entertaining! :)

My poor lil Korbin has been sick the past couple of days and we've taken two trips to the ER. He had a 104.7 temp the first night and was just the most pathetic and saddest looking lil peanut you have ever since! We were actually at the ER til 4ish this morning because his temp wasn't staying down. After a couple chest xrays they determined he has pneumonia-so sad!

Fun news....I got a snuggie for Christmas!! Sooo excited! And yes, it is as comfy and practical as the cheesy commercials portray:) In fact, I'm wearing it right now and it's keeping me all warm and cozy!

Welp, off to bed I go. I hope everyone's Christmas was as wonderful, restful and fun as mine was! Sweet dreams!!
