Christmas! so, this isn't exactly what mese posted but i'll list all the things i love about this time of year, & what i'm grateful for.(in no particular order)

*my family and friends-i am truly blessed to have so many people in my life that i love,and that love me.i don't always show it but i love each and every one of you.if it weren't for such wonderful,amazing people in my life i would not be the person i am today.with that in mind-thank you from the bottom of my heart,and i love you.

*finding something that i know someone would love and seeing the smile on their face knowing that it's something they really wanted-especially my nieces & nephews.their beautiful little faces just make me love being an auntie.

*lights!lights!lights!

*wearing a beanie or scarf-well, anywhere but cali apparently.86 degrees in december?what the crap is that about:)
