I can’t believe it’s December already… this year really flew by!
My weekend was full of the Christmas spirit
I did some shopping (mainly for my coworkers and Sister’s boyfriend)… so I still have to get the stuff for my family.
Just need to think first
Thanks Katie for keeping our Monday’s Marvelous! ![]()
Friday night I went over to get my hair cut… nothing too different.. just a trim. The woman cutting my hair was funny… she was telling me I should be a hair model since I have so much. She’s not the first to tell me that actually…. hmmm… new career path? ![]()
I was actually able to blow dry it straight without it hating my blow dryer haha!
**Someone emailed me and asked how I get my bangs like that.. When I get my hair cut, I ask for a side bang and lots of layers and all I do is blow dry it like a boy would. Girls typically blow dry their hair under… Boys (those who do blow dry their hair) flip it out. So that’s what I do
Saturday night was tree decorating night!! My Mom and Sister pulled out the ornaments while I got to work on the ribbons/flowers/design
Dad was asleep dreaming about some sort of alien invasion. And little Oodles helped by being a cute muffin butt under the tree ![]()
And now, let us bask in the glory of my wonderful tree because I’m a proud mama haha it took me hoursssss
Sunday I ended up going for a 4 mile run since I took Saturday off. It wasn’t that cold out either which made for a nice run
After that we went shopping again (a little bit)… ended up find a cute mug for my coworker… and some for me. My Mom says I’m nesting. Guess that means it’s almost time I move out? haha
But come on, how could I NOT get these cute mugs?!
The race sadly never happened because we were too late to sign up, but oh well… I’m actually on a search for a 10k race… so we shall see haha
My favorite movie ever was on Sunday night
The Grinch!!! I could watch that movie over and over again and totally not get sick of it. Maybe I wish I were a who?
Hope you all had a marvelous weekend!

That is cool and what an interesting idea about the bangs. I bet it makes it so easy and simple. I am in need of a haircut as well and might go this route!
December 3, 2012 at 1:15 pm
It really does and keeps them out of your eyes haha

EeeEE! YES for spending the weekend immersed in Christmas cheer! That’s how I welcomed December too, and holy.wow are things in full blown Christmas mode around here. Love your tree, love The Grinch, and love those adorable Christmas mugs! I watched Elf and Home Alone this weekend, which are definitely some of my favorites.
December 3, 2012 at 3:52 pm
Just read your post too! Yay for Christmas stuff
December 3, 2012 at 4:23 pm
First, I love your header! I don’t think I saw it before, is it new?
Love the hair cut, you do have beautiful hair!
Christmas mugs are the best!
Happy Monday!
December 3, 2012 at 7:09 pm
Yup! haha I got bored at work one day
Thanks!! xx

Do love your haircut! I’ve always wanted to try bangs, but definitely the side-swept ones versus straight. I think straight may be too fierce for me at the moment!
I’m looking forward to decorating my family’s Christmas tree. When I got home this afternoon I saw my roommate decorated the apartment over the weekend and I got super excited!
Favorite Christmas movie? Elf!
December 3, 2012 at 7:11 pm

Thanks!
awww!! too cute! Enjoy it!

That Santa mug is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen!!! I’m a big fan of Elf, although I do have a (very) guilty pleasure for Just Friends with Ryan Reynolds. I know it’s terrible, but something about it cracks me up every time!
December 4, 2012 at 9:50 am
omg yes!! I love that movie too! He’s so funny in it haha
