CHRISTMAS TIME!

I know it been forever since I last posted so I'll try to catch you up!
Well, part of the reason it took me so long to post was because of school! I've was so busy working on schoolwork, studying and my job.  After Thanksgiving finals began! I did okay on most of them.  In my Stats class I got a B! Like what...I got A's on everything in that and studied my butt off for that final and I get a B? are you kidding me? uuugh so frustrating.  Anyways, finals are finally over, school is over, I'm out of work, bills are paid and nothing to worry about in KC.
Fortunately, this week, since I've been home I have had a lot of time to think about things.  And knowing me many of them are stupid and pointless to mention.  But something are important! Such as having time to focus on my relationship with God.  And an opportunity to get to closer to my parton Saint Anthony (parton saint of lost articles and such, he helps me find things lol) I mean, most people don't actually need to do this but it seems that I do.  I need to set aside time to pray, to thank God for what He has given me. And thank St. Anthony for everything he's helped me find over the years, Like my Faith.
On a less serious note, I have also had time to hangout with my family.  Who are, lets be honest, weird and kind of awesome.  Not to mention, MY SISTERS ARE BOTH COMING FOR CHRISTMAS! This is going to be the second year we had Christmas in this house and the first year we had to Skype my lovely sister, Jessica,  and her fiance, Jeff, all the way in NY.  And while I appreciate the fact that we have this amazing technology that we can do stuff like that I am so absolutely excited that they are actually coming this year! OMG SO EXCITED! The only thing missing here is snow.  We are snowless. The song doesn't go "I'm dreaming of a snowless Christmas." I only wish it would snow and it would be perfect.  But the amount of presents under our tree kinda makes up for the lack of snow I guess. hahaha
Also, when talking about Christmas lets segway (I know that spelled wrong)  to one of the most awesome parts of Christmas.  The food. The family super cool and obviously that's the best part, but come on.  Everyone's second favorite part to Christmas is food.  Because the food is awesome.  I have made hundreds of cookies.  Some at my sister's house in KC and some here at home.  Either way, I probably made most of the cookies! hehehe jkjk I kid I kid. (Kinda) Anywho, I'm super excited about the menu my family has come up with for a week long affair we call Christmas.  First, it'll be Christmas Eve! So naturally that means FONDUE! But this year we are having like a million more people over (actually its only four) so we have make a new one! Oh. Man. What am I going to do with another Fondue.  I suppose I'll eat it.  But then we move on to Christmas Day!!! Christmas day shall have a large Turkey and also Mom's Delicous Ham.  We shall also be having a an assortment of vegetables, dips, cheese, crackers and many more things I'm probably forgetting.  The day after that, rather the the usual clean out the fridge day that most families do mine is doing something special. Homemade pizza. Because we are pizza freaks from NY who miss real pizza. And because all of us are going to be here we doing it! So excited for Thursday. Its kinda unnatural.  But in any-case, we going to be having a crap ton of food and I love food, so I'm happy.
SO! To everyone or anyone (I don't actually know if strangers read this or not) who isn't having anyone home for Christmas, or people who are not having a good Christmas I'm truly sorry.  And while I would like think I would be the person who would offer to share their Christmas, I don't really like doing that either, because I like tradition. And also your a stranger, but I wish you a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS! and remember! The Holiday is about Christ is our Savior! and If you feel alone on Christmas Day remember you aren't! Because people are praying for you and because GOD loves you, and he's celebrating with you!
And if you don't celebrate Christmas but another Holiday I wish  you a very Happy Holiday!
And you don't celebrate anything! I HOPE YOU  HAVE A GREAT DAY IN GENERAL! :D
