I did not put up a Christmas tree this year. Michele and I have been so all over the place during the last month, with her finishing school (woot!) and my fighting Crohn's. Let alone grasping for last minute Christmas gifts. BUT, a couple of days ago, I walked out of my room and our entire apartment was full of small Holiday touches! Totally made the week warmer.
I put up labels in Spanish last month all over our apartment to help Michele learn the language.
( um, this is where we keep the plates)
Her decorations are much prettier.
Hobbit Chic.
Today, I am in Rhode Island with my Godparents and cousins. We Skyped with the rest of our family and stuffed our faces with a ridiculous amount of Italian food. Then, my cousin Erik broke out the Mead. Some of us are drunk now, some just gassy. Yep, it's Christmas.
