I am back and I am excited!

You guuuuuuys! I've missed you! I am back from my fantastic Thanksgiving trip to California. It was lovely to see my sister and of course, go to Disneyland. But most of all- you amazing people gave me the best surprise possible:

I now have 100 followers! I've hit the triple-digits!

I realize that my little blog is still, well little, but you have no idea how much this excites me and makes me happy. Thank you for being awesome! I have a lot to post coming up, including my December (*cough* Christmas *cough*) Playlist and all my Disneyland pictures- which are quite amazing. Disneyland is beautiful during Christmastime- I almost lost my mind entirely.

Here's a little preview. Gorgeous right?

Onward to Disneyland!

I'm off to California in a mere number of hours! I have to go back to school first though... While I'm typing this I'm also frantically trying to eat lunch and pack. It will be so worth it though- I'm so excited to see Disneyland with all the lights up!

I just wanted to let y'all know, because I won't have anyway to blog while I'm away. If you want to live vicariously through me I will be updating and posting pictures on twitter- so find me there: TWITTER!

Outfit: Scarves Make Me Happiest

Apparently I didn't want to look at the camera today...

I fell in love with the scarf the moment I saw it. I knew I had to have it right away... and I admit I have a scarf problem. I will never, never have enough scarves. My mom was nice enough to buy this one for me, but under the condition that she would wrap it for a Christmas present.

Wondering why I'm wearing it then? The answer: I'm totally impatient. I walked into my mom's room at about 6:30 this morning and asked her where this scarf was. She reminded me it was a Christmas present. My response:

"Well, I want to wear it today."

I think my mom knew she was going to be fighting a losing battle, so she just said she'd go get it, and something along the lines of I'm not going to have any Christmas presents left.

Oh well- I got to wear my cool horses-that-look-like-they-have-fish-bodies-and-a-little-bit-unicorn scarf. And I loved it.

My Wrists Were Cozy ♥

It was chilly today, which is perfect weather for some wrist-warmers. Now that it's getting to be winter I've started crocheting like crazy again. I love the holiday season, and because I'm a choir kid- Christmas started for me in October. It wasn't until this week that I started playing Christmas music, making Christmas lists, thinking up ideas for presents and declaring it time for Christmas....

...but first it's Thanksgiving time. That last dreary picture would be my view from my window into my backyard. That's not even half the leaves that I will need to rake. Yay!

Moral of the story- I warn you to be prepared! Holiday time is my favorite time- and I will embrace every happy, Christmas-y thing about it!
