Merry Christmas!

 

 

Christmas was the absolute best this year! Family, friends, and food (alot of food)....Doesn't get much better than that! Christmas eve my dads side of the family gets together and there's so many of us its getting a little crazy, but still fun! Santa came, and everyone got a little gift..its so fun to watch all the littles get so excited for santa :)

Then after we opened gifts at my auntie house and put out reindeer food, milk and cookies at home and snuggled into bed in our Christmas jammies :)

Hope everyone had a great Christmas! And a happy new year!!

Stay safe!

i've found a new best friend this week..

The couch that is! I've been sicker than a dog for the past week, and I just can't seem to shake it! I had a fever of 102 for two days straight, and man..that killed me. I'm starting to feel better now, and I can't wait for some fun family christmas time the next couple days! I LOVE CHRISTMAS! My family gets pretty crazy during christmas so it's a lot of fun! Be expecting a ton of pictures the next couple of weeks! I hope everyone has a great christmas! Keep your loved ones in your prayers, and remember those who can't be here during this special holiday..
God is love..

Praying..

I've had a really hard time dealing with the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting...It really hit close to home when I have a little seven year old brother at home who I walk into school every morning and let him on his way to his class, where he should feel the safest. I cannot image the pain those families are going through right now. Those poor babies..their innocent little lives, taken from them, from such a scary, horrible man. I just keep wondering what they were thinking when their own classmates lives were taken right in front of their little eyes. How scared they were? Were they screaming for their mommies and daddys? I just don't understand why someone could ever do something so horrible. The past couple of days I haven't been able to fall asleep. I just lay there thinking of how lucky I am to be able to say I am 17 years old, and to have such a healthy and beautiful family. This really makes me realize to not take anything for granted and realize anything can happen. Newtown has about 2,000 people, the same exact as my little town in MI. Little communities like mine and Newtown are supposed to be the safest, everyone knows everyone..Nobody would ever want to hurt each other..but I guess I need to not be so vulnerable, and remember that anything can happen. I just pray every night for these families, and I hope that someday they will be able to move forward and just think of the great impact their babies had on this world...We now have 26 beautiful angels looking down on us.

So much to do...so little time

In a perfect world I would be posting 2-3 times a week, with multiple outfit posts, a ton of wonderful pictures and great write ups. But unfortunately we do not live in a perfect world, so therefore I never have time to post or do any of that super-awesome sounding stuff! So anyhow, in my "un-perfect" world, I will proceed to go to school for one hundred-and-fifty-seven more days, which seems to be a horribly long amount of time. I will go to basketball practice, and win some more games..hopefully not lose any ;) I will work occasionally on some Saturdays, I will spend time with my amazing family and boyfriend. ANNNDDDD....I will hopefully get maybe more than 1 post every 2 months in..so sorry.. I just need more time in the day! And some more help on blogger :/ I really know this blog looks very sad..so if anyone out there knows and cool tricks ;) pleasssse help a girl out!
That's all for now!
XO,
