Belated Christmas Wishes

I hope everyone had a blessed Christmas celebrating with family and friends. 



This year I really went all out with gift buying since this is my first year of having a "real" job and income, but I wouldn't have had it any other way! My favorite part of Christmas is the giving to others and choosing perfect gifts for family and friends. This year was the best year ever, since I had more freedom to spend what I wanted .. I did go a bit overboard though.

Yes, I found purple paper this year. It was glorious!

The Friday before Christmas we had my mom and my co-workers and friends over to decorate cookies again. I love them all so much and I don't know what I'd do without them!


Christmas Eve I spent at my dad and stepmom's. This is our last year in the house that we've been in since 1998, so it was definitely bittersweet. They didn't even put up their beautiful 10 foot tree, which I was more than a little upset about! It was still a great get together though :)


Christmas Day we went to church, then to my aunt's with my mom's side of the family, and then home to my mom's to do our own gifts with our family. It was fun with the extended family and my aunt made these AMAZING candy cane martinis!





Other than a New Year's post I probably won't blog again before my LEEP on Friday, so I ask for all of your continued thoughts and prayers! And I very much appreciate them. I'm trying to stay strong and just remember that God is always with me and He will get me through it and hear all of the prayers from my family and friends (and me). Thanks again<3
