Happy Holidays everyone!
I hope that everyone had an amazing holiday (of whatever you celebrate). If you got presents I hope that you really appreciate what you got, and who took the time out to pick it out and buy it for you. I want to say that I appreciate all of my family so much.
Sunday: Christmas was amazing, and my second Christmas was even better! The four of us (my parents, Josh and I) drove down to Hubbard to spend the day at my grandparent’s house for Christmas and it was amazing! I got the new Bobbi Brown makeup book, and a Sephora gift card (and a ton of other things), and Josh was so surprised when he got presents too : )
We played games, ate a ton of food, and tried to get the smell of BOD out of our mouthes... It was a fantastic day overall, and I am so glad that Josh was able to come with us and meet the rest of the family. Everyone took to him really well, and he just fit in.
The stockings : )
Chase and Josh just chilling out, racing cars.
Santa's Key- That's how he gets into your houses!

So fly like a cheese stick...
When we finally got home we went back to Josh’s house to shoot some Nazi Zombies with Audrey, Brittany, Katie, Joe (at the end) and Karen (for a little bit). I am terrible at shooting games there’s just too much to do at once and my brain just can’t handle it, but I enjoyed watching everyone else play while I cuddled with sweet Rougar. Eventually even he disappeared, and when we did find him he was asleep on the bathroom floor. So Josh decided to join him…
Yup, thery're just sitting on the toilet.
Once he wiggled out of Josh’s arms we were playing around when Rougar jumped at me and moving backward I cracked my head on their open cabinet door. Hence my night ending early... I now have a huge bruise on the back of my noggin that really hurts, but at least I got to have fun with Josh’s family (thank you Audrey and Brittany for driving me home).
Oh no! Dog Attack

Monday: So yesterday was so much fun. I got to go to the bank (which was boring), but when I got home we picked up Josh and went to the Dancing Dragon for Chinese with my other family. All six of us (David, Marilyn and Heather Costa, Stephanie, and Josh and I) all smushed into a corner booth and ordered a ton of food (equal parts chicken and beef) and proceeded to catch each other up on life. Lots of things were discussed and congratulations were given, and a plan was made to meet each other at Freddies for some quick shopping.

Low and behold we saw one of the people I’ve mentioned in an earlier post (who totally ignored me FYI), while we were on our way to wrestle Josh out of the music section, but not before he decided to buy Owl City (Which we did not need, but are very happy about)
Then we dropped him off, and Mom went home, and my siblings and I went to get some coffee at Ava’s. : ) and after a nonverbal conversation we decided to drive all the way to Newberg for the barista’s special drink. *Even though I dislike coffee I truly enjoy that drink, and will totally drink it again*
We made it an early night, and ended up going home around ten, but I had the best time with my family, and I can’t wait to see everyone again in probably June.
On a final note I would like to say something that really makes me want to throw something (good for you if you get this reference)…. When people don’t do what they say they will, and lie to get out of it. If you make a commitment you should honor it, otherwise you’re just going to end up being labeled the flake.
A. “Oh let’s invite so-and-so to come over!”
B.“We can’t they’ll just flake on us.”
A. “Let’s give them one more chance!”
2 hours after the flake’s ETA….
B. “I told you they’d flake”
People don’t let this be you! If you have a prior engagement don’t bitch out of it, just go and do what you said you were going to do otherwise you’ll lose trust, and what friends you do have.
On a funny end note, I though everyone would appreciate this conversation Josh and I just had as I was typing this blog. It truly cracks me up… for reference he is getting subway and asked if I wanted a sandwich (this is over text)
Me: No thanks. Have fun though!
Josh: With my sandwitch? Haha
Me: Babe I’m for reals buying you a dictionary :) I love you.
Josh: What did I do? Haha : )
Me: Sandwich. There is no t involved haha it is not a Sand Witch
Josh: How do you know?! She might be the wiked witch of the wheat and all she wants to do is take my sandwitch! Haha : )
Me: Haha. Btw is wicked. Haha
Josh: …That’s what I said in my mind haha
Me: I’m putting that in the blog.
Josh: But she will know where I am!
HAHAHA You are my hero Josh.
Word to the wise, beware the Sand Witch,
-Kristen
