Twas the day after Christmas....

(I started this post on Thursday, but my computer started acting up. So here's trying again.)

It may sound odd, but on this day after Christmas, I'm breathing a sigh of relief. Most people are sad that the holidays are over, but I'm just glad that things can get back to normal. As a matter of fact, I felt very motivated this morning to exercise and get things accomplished. Sorry if that sounds scroogish of me. ;) 

This year we had a small Christmas, which was honestly ok with me. 

Here are the things I got.


This lovely white scarf, and Japanese Cherry Blossom body spray and lotion from Megan. 

These adorable, warm knee socks were accompanied by two candy canes, but they are no more. ;) This was from my mom. (She had already given me money for the trip to Florida, but she said I needed something to unwrap.) 

This awesome, fun charm bracelet from my Mawmaw and Pawpaw.

I got an early Christmas present this year. We switched from Sprint to Verizon, and got iPhones!

Here's my new iPhone 4s.

(Isn't the camo and turquoise case awesome?)

I love it. It's been so fun figuring out and doing tons of stuff from my phone that I never could before. I feel like I learn something new about it everyday. Like my mom said, now I understand why people are always looking down at their phones. I'm trying to not get addicted, so I spend long periods of time away from my phone on purpose. Still, it's turning into a great tool.

And last but definitely not least, I got my present in yesterday from my friend Joel.

5 sweet smelling candles in the scents silver birch, snow petals, and frozen berries. 

2 awesome history books. (The one on the right wasn't supposed to be opened until my birthday. Oops!) 

And lastly, a sweet, adorable black puppy! (It's very hard to get a good pic of something black.)




My mom gave me this jean skirt as an early birthday present. My birthday is next Saturday. I love Fleur-de-lis's! (the symbol on the pockets.)

So how was your Christmas?
