Ho Ho Ho

After the snow/ice storm last week, it was wonderful to wake up to this scene on Saturday morning. It may be horribly cold, but it IS pretty (she says with a roll of her eyes).

The best part of Saturday was that the students left campus for break. That's right. They are officially gone for a few weeks. To celebrate this, we (Jill, Mel & Co.) decided to have a night on the town (The Twelve Bars of Christmas--remember that Beth? I brought it back) So we gathered at my place where we started out very grown up. Sipping champagne and talking. Then someone flipped the switch and it became Dance Party USA around here. So we ended up only making it to 3 bars. Let's just say my pictures are not really blogable (to protect the innocent) but believe me, we had A LOT of fun.

In fact, somehow this little sign was taken off my Christmas tree and accompanied us to the bars. It made an appearance in just about EVERY picture. Hilarious! Today was a very lazy day. I'm not as practiced for a fun night out as I used to be. I'm sore from the dancing. I'm convinced my toe is broken because I fell on some ice at one point and I'm tired. How did I used to do this every weekend in college?

On an unrelated topic, I want to give a shout out to Angie and Cristina for the lovely gifts they gave me for my B-day. They are good gift givers and always get me stuff that I love.

Cristina gave me this cute colander. It's so sly with leaves on it. And Angie gave me these plates. Cute right?

Thanks girls!

And now I'm going to bed. I can't take all the excitement.

Well, until next weekend.
