A Christmas- Filled Weekend

Oh the weekend I have had so far! Schuyler and I had the loveliest evening on Friday. We made homemade pizza with plenty of veggies, made cut out sugar cookies and decorated them, and made "puppy chow." It turned out to be delicious, though our cookie decorating skills leave something to be desired.

Cooking wasn't even the best part of the night! Schuyler and I headed to my room (My DVR is only hooked up to the tv in my room) and watched a Muppets Christmas Carol. I had never seen it and Schuyler has always been a sucker for the muppets so needless to say we had a blast! We literally just hung out. I know that sounds boring, but we had Christmas lights on in my room and my puppy came to lay with us. It was magical. Life's great moments don't always have to be grandiose. It felt so nice just to relax by the glow of my bedside candle and watch a silly Christmas movie.

Then Saturday came! I worked my usual 5am - 11am shift at the radio station. After that I dropped off some baby shower decorations for a friend from Taekwondo, then right back home for a MUCH needed nap! I woke up around 3:30 and got ready for Schuyler's company Christmas party. I even gave myself a fancy manicure using nail stickers I got on clearance for $2.

Unfortunately I had to miss the baby shower for the Christmas party, but it turned out to be quite a nice event. We had a fun time, but right as it ended we had to head to the Taekwondo Christmas party! This was a much more upbeat/laid back party - complete with Karaoke! Schuyler and I skipped the singing, but enjoyed the show. It was too bad we couldn't stay too long because I had to rush off to my overnight shift for the radio station!

Sunday, I get to sleep. At 2 Sky is coming over and at 3 we are heading to do a mini Christmas with his parents before I head back to Maryland for the Holidays! I suppose I should say Holiday. I will be in Rotterdam for New Years! After that little gathering it is off to the Radio Station's Holiday Party! Busy weekend, but I'm thankful for every second.

Keep on smiling,
Malena
