my job is cool. (and a giveaway winner!)

being a costumer can be a challenging and stressful job.

but sometimes...it's just downright fun.

example?

searching through boxes of hats...and having to try each of them on.

to make sure they're usable, of course.

it's like a grown-up game of dress-up.

did i just say grown-up?

no.

sorry.

more like a "not quite a kid, not quite a grown-up, kind of that awkward in between age where you're not sure what category you belong in" game of dress-up.

oh!

and congrats to elizabeth for winning the shabby apple giveaway!

contact me and i'll give you the code :)

be sure and let us know what you get with your gift card!!

talk soon!

christmas memories.

did i ever tell you about the christmas of 2012?

it was...an eventful day, to say the least.

it started out as many christmases do.

with the opening of presents.

(i got a record player!!!)

and general hubbub.

but to me...the most exciting thing of all was the chance to see LES MISERABLES on opening day!

i mean...i was only waiting for it ALL YEAR!!

so, even though it had started snowing (my second white christmas!) my mom, sister, and i all headed off to the city to see les mis.

it was a beautiful movie.

i laughed, cried, and loved it.

i can't even begin to explain how truly wonderful that movie is.

oh my.

well.

after a terrifyingly scary attempt to get home on the icy roads...it was decided we had to stay the night in town.

christmas night.

in a hotel.

also?

we hadn't eaten any dinner.

and, being christmas, everything was closed.

so christmas dinner was a candy bar, bag of chips, and sprite.

it was a sad...SAD day.

so...the day started off well.

the movie was GLORIOUS.

but the evening...not so much.

:/

just making memories.

xo.
