Christmas Still Lingers~

MERRY CHRISTMAS!! I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas Day~ 
I have to admit I had low expectations this year. Things have been so hard and not feeling very “Christmasy” but Christmas Eve & Day turned out so wonderful! Honestly one of the top 3 Christmases ever! And gift-wise the best ever!! We had a big dinner on both Christmas Eve and Day. Mike’s a wonderful cook. Christmas Day we decided to stroll around the city and finally check out the National Tree, State Xmas Trees, and National Yule Log! :glitz::cameratime:
Have I mentioned DC squirrels are crazy friendly??? Don’t get rabies!!!
OK, so I’ll do a big gift round-up!! I only asked for 2 things this Christmas because there wasn’t much I wanted. I asked for the Victoria’s Secret Slippers and a Sephora Fragrance sampler where you get samples of like 10 perfumes and a voucher to get 1 full bottle of any of the ones you like. So most my gifts from Mike were a surprise
LET’S OPEN GIFTS!
Christmas gift from my friend in Japan!
YUMMY~~!!
AWE~ CUTE FRAMES!
She got me a super cute onepiece outfit!!!
OH MY GOSSSSSSSSH I WAS BLOWN AWAY!! :sketchheart: 
:ufu:
CUTE TURTLE NECK AND ONEPIECE!!
BIGGEST surprise gift from Mike
There was this coat from Free People I REALLY wanted. I tried buying it 2 months ago but they were sold out!!! Even online, SOLD OUT! I was bummed because I really wanted it. Anyway, I gave up despite checking online for the chance of restocking and checking the store whenever possible too. But nope, they never restock stuff :F
Mike called EVERY FREE PEOPLE STORE IN AMERICA to track one down for me for Christmas!!!!!!! I had no idea!!!! He said the staff were all amazing and super helpful and emailed him updates and such. Finally they tracked ONE down & shipped it~~ He wrapped it in a Victoria’s Secret box so I’d think it was my slippers but when I opened it it was the coat I had been pining for for MONTHSSSSSSSS~~!! I even posted about it in this entry from AUGUST!
And also it was featured in the Rinka write up when she was shopping in LA!! I didn’t even realize till yesterday!
Hands down BEST GIFT EVER! HAHAHAHAHA :noki4: :sparkleup:
Victoria’s Secret
Sephora stuff!
The Fragrance Sampler Box has mini bottles of great perfumes!
You then choose 1 perfume to redeem a large bottle for.
Cute mini makeup case filled with like 20 samples of fragrances and makeup!!
Japanese bath salts! My favorite brand!
I got Mike an espresso machine so when he got me these I thought he knew!!!!
But he didn’t~ it was just a coincidence!
Wedding gift from my Aunt & Uncle
Special thank you’s to Meru, Jayne, and Reena~~!!

This year, our family and friend decided not to give gifts, only if they feel like giving that’s ok too.
Anyways, this X-mas I get to finish reading the Twilight Saga and that’s enough for me!

Were we in DC at the same time?! Weird! I took the same pic in front of the White House but, alas, it wasn’t as nice as day as it looks like in your pic!
hii, i’m nyuu and has been stumbling upon your site a lot lately
But nyuu hasn’t left a comment because your magazines scans always distracted me 
But I want to thank you for all your effort for all these wonderful scans! =3
I’m glad your xmas was way better than you have expected. I really liked the onepiece dress…soooo pretty. And the blue stripped coat is amazing!
Andy got me great gifts this year, too! Isn’t great when that happens?
Ooo, you got the sampler with Daisy! That’s my faaave! I’m addicted to getting all the things that go along with the fragrance (like body butter, etc).
Haha, that squirrel is awesome! Christmas must have been a great day to walk around DC! It was SO WARM!
Awww congrats!!! That’s some LOVE right there, to get you that jacket. It looks really nice, too!!!
