It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas

Hello there! 

I hope everyone's Thanksgiving was pleasant. 

Mine involved a lot of this...

I absolutely LOVE pecan pie! 

I was very thankful for our family's unity, and continuing to draw closer.

The day after, that many call Black Friday, is my Christmas decorating day for my room. Here are some glimpses of the work me and my little sister Rachel did. 


I love these little red bells.

I made this decoration the Christmas after my Granny died. She was always creative, and I never considered myself creative, but that Christmas, I somehow made this. I can't tell you how I did this bow, but it came out amazing.

I love Christmas. :)

I got these garlands at the Dollar Store a few years ago for really cheap. But they hold up very well.


I really like this picture. 



I also have Christmas lights hung around my room (Shhh...don't tell anyone, but I kept them up all year. ;P) 

I've been working on my book, and now it's over 6,000 words! And I'm only just beginning chapter 3! This book has turned into a really fun project, and I think it will go far. 

At the end of Thanksgiving day, I took advantage of some amazing lighting. Here's my cute model.

I really like this shot too.

I call it, "Golden Grass of Autumn." 

Then yesterday, I found the perfect thing to help ease the sadness of the end of my favorite season.

These adorable leaf earrings! *Sighs* I love them. :D

I also got another bottle of Essie nail polish. I think I'm becoming addicted.  ;)


It's called "Lapiz of Luxury."
I promised to play Life with my siblings, so I have to wrap this post up. But first, let me show you something I ordered today.

The Celtic Women Christmas CD! I'm so excited! I've listened to them for a while now on youtube, and I love their voices and music. When my mom had me start looking for some good Christmas music cds, I thought of them almost immediately. I can't wait to get it in!

How are you celebrating the beginning of the Christmas season?
