December 2018



Hey guys. I know I've been pretty absent from this blog lately... just letting myself slack, and being OK with it. Ha. Whatever. :P

I'm here now, for my last little photo dump of the year. Here's a bit of what my December was like.




Mexican restaurant with the cousins. ^^


^^ I guess Spicy was happy to see me, lol.




HOLIDAY INN...  gingerbread cookies


^^ Taco Bell with my little sister, bc I had a gift card (rarely go there but it's GOOD)


<33


Shantelle's birthday outing! Giant bookstore, berry frozen yogurt at Costco, and PIZZA.


I made a wreath from a fallen pine branch. ;)


Delicious Panera Bread Brownie...    Going to my work Christmas party.


MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! I got some beautiful things. <3333



I painted my toenails red and fingernails gold before going to hang out with extended family Christmas night. My nails are already chipped... well the glittery gold was fun while it lasted. ;P






HOW WAS THE LAST MONTH OF 2018 FOR YOU?? 

WHAT DID YOU DO FOR CHRISTMAS?

Hiking Out West 2018


Hey, happy Saturday {*cough* Sunday *cough*} to you all. :)

I have a whole bunch of glorious beauty to throw at you todaayyyy! Since I never finished the last post of photos from our trip to the West this summer, I'm giving it to you now. 

If you remember, when we were out west in 2016 for a family reunion, we went hiking up this beautiful little mountain. It has history in our family, and I wanted to go up there again when we were out there this summer. We finally did! Thus, I have some more pictures to share with you all. ^__^

The first little bit of hiking, I just about died. *laughs* I am sooooo out of shape. But I somehow made it all the way to Sawtooth rock, which is as far as I went last time. Then we went further, to Sturgeon rock. So much beauty up there in the mountains! 

Just scroll and see for yourself...

The Christmas Tag



Hey everyone! How was your week? Mine went well... the usual working for a few hours every morning, and whatever else I did. :P I sold a bar of soap to someone at work, and I think she just may be hooked... *winks* A couple of my other co-workers have also expressed interest in it, so I'm going to have to bring it again next week. 

The weekend has started off nicely as well. Got payed and everything. *cheering 'cause money is nice to have* haha.

So, I created another tag. Who's ready for some fun Christmas questions?? Let's go!

{p.s. sometimes blogger is stupidly stubborn, and rn it doesn't want to let my font be black here... so it's red instead. *groans*}


Favorite Christmas drink?

Hot apple cider or maybe a peppermint milkshake


Favorite Christmas color to wear?

Probably red


Favorite Christmas cookie or dessert?

I don't have a favorite. So far this year we've made cut-out sugar cookies, nissu (sweet Finnish bread), and another fruit\cream cheese bread. Oh, and my little siblings and cousins made some pretzel candies yesterday too. ;)


Some favorite Christmas flavors or spices?

Peppermint, cinnamon



Does your family do stockings?

Yes! Always fun, even as this newly adulted person. hehe.


Favorite Christmas hymn?

The First Noel, O Holy Night, etc.


Favorite "secular" Christmas song?

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, White Christmas... idek. What's with me asking myself "favorites" questions? *rolls eyes*


Do you enjoy Christmas shopping, or does it just stress you out?
I really enjoy buying gifts {must partly be my love of buying in general} and wrapping them up all nice. ^__^


Favorite Christmas decoration?

The tree and all the lights *winks*


What small thing gives you that special "Christmas feeling"?

Smelling the needles of a Christmas tree
