Happy Holiday Celebrations!

The Christmas season of 2011 is over! Feels like it went by in a flash~ I had a wonderful Christmas week filled with joy and with all the people whom I love. ^^ Spent Christmas Eve with my Grandma. She's such a crack up. Since we were kind of in the area, we decided to take her to the Balian house. The Balians have their own ice cream business, which my Catholic school used to have supply us the best bullet popsicles ever!!, and every year since I can remember, this family's house gets decked out with lights and Christmas themed displays. The electric company helps display all their lights, while the family just pays for the electricity. They must be still making bank!









It's a quick stop for some holiday lights, but it always bring me back to my childhood memores. I love Christmas lights. During this time of year, I could drive for hours just to look at how people decorate their homes. As a kid, my parents would always take me out to see the lights, and that feeling of joy upon seeing those lights has stuck with me up until now.

Christmas luncheon feast! So much food! (And we're still munching on the leftovers. YUM.)

 
My friend JLYN gifted this blinking red bow headband to me for Christmas (along with a cute mug!) Senkuu~ ♡ So ready for the next kpop concert!


 After our luncheon, I spent time over at my dad's...mainly doing this kind of stuff...  
I kid. I tried, and I failed. It's been so long since I've got on a bike! Shameful. :3

   
With the sister. 

 All in all, it was one of the best Christmas holidays ever. The food and the company...I'm so grateful to have all that I do. ♡ Until next year! But I think this one will remain in my heart forever. I hope all of you lovelies had a wonderful Christmas holiday as well!

On to the kitties! They're both doing 99% better! They've stop sneezing so often and coughing. Snowball is now eating on her own and drinking on her own. SO RELIEVED! We were all so worried about her this entire week, but I guess it just had to take its course. Now she's chowing down! Her little tummy's getting filled up fast! She better catch up to her brother's level. That little fatty. lol. Taking them in Thursday for their check-up and to have Snowball's stitches out. Poor baby...

He's up to no good I tell ya!

They love being under the tree.

Can you spot the Snowball?

♥♥ 

Oh yeah! And yesterday I went to see this movie! It was definitely a feel good comedy. It wasn't as cutesy as "Valentine's Day", since it had more family related stories, but I liked it nonetheless.  I recommend it to all of you! Someday I'd like to visit New York during Christmas and and New Year's! It'd be quite the experience.

 

Plus, it was a big reminder that the New Year of 2012 is upon us!! Are you ready?

  1. Hey Tiffany, I'm glad you see that you had a great Christmas with your family. Look at all those food *drools*. And, don't worry, you're not the only one who can ride a bike haha. The last time, I got on a bike, I hit a parked car. I was going way too fast, freaked out and forgot to step on the break haha
