Today's post is going to talk about my holidays! I've been meaning to make posts all throughout the holiday season, but I haven't had the time until now, and it will be much more succinct if I just do it all in one post! So let's get started!
Firstly, I'll talk about the completion of one of my 12x12 goals, which was making a gingerbread house! Every year, my best friend's family holds this MASSIVE gingerbread house building competition. And believe me, this thing is serious. Everyone spends 5-6 hours constructing very over the top gingerbread houses! I can't find my picture of it, but the winners of the competition this year made a gingerbread house cattle farm. A WHOLE FARM! It took a up a whole table by itself! Anyways, here's some photos of my teams construction!

| Our man helpers... working so hard, obviously. |

| Finished product! |
Our team made a Christmas beach house! And if you can't tell what those blue things on the beach are, they are gummy sharks :) Basking in the sun, hahaha! We won the award for "Christmas at the Beach"... you can tell they make up the awards on the spot sometimes!! Hahahaha.
Next I have some hair and makeup shots from various parties during this Holiday season. I don't have any full outfit shots because I was either in too much of a hurry or it was too late in the day to take good pictures. But I plan to take lots more outfit pics this year!!
Actually did my hair for once! This was for my Christmas party at work, so I wanted to look nice~ But I had to work until an hour before the party, so I didn't change my make up ; ^ ; But at least my hair looked good. I also kind of have a derpy face in the first picture. Oh well. Herp derp.

| Before I did my hair... my forehead looks ginormous!!! |
This look was for my friends birthday party downtown! My outfit for this was relatively plain, just a black top and high-waisted skirt, plus my black Litas. I love those earrings though * O * Unfortunately they kept falling out of my ears while I was dancing!! D:< (P.S. pics with my bangs down are from after I got home... which is why I look a little ragged!!)
I feel sad that I didn't get any decent outfit shots from the whole of my winter break! ; ^ ; But alas! I shall try harder from now on!! Anyways, I want to share some photos of me and my family from the holidays now! And few of my Christmas "gets"! :3

I had a very good Christmas, and my family was way too good to me!! ; ^ ; I feel quite spoiled, harhar... But this year I had a job so I bought everyone else awesome presents too! Christmas was so weird this year because my sisters were only around for a short period of time, since one is away at school and the other is doing co-op in another country!!
In further news, I'm driving up to Hamilton/Toronto to visit family and then drop off Kirstin at the airport so she can fly back to Germany! It will be sad to see my sisters go again! My house is so empty without them ;__;
Anyways, we're leaving pretty early tomorrow morning, so I'm going to finish watching Return of the King, and then go to bed!
GOOD NIGHT!
GOOD NIGHT!
(PS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I finally applied to my uni choices!!!!! :D Let's just hope I get in now ><)
