Christmas Presents

Nana bought us a few presents... And they are AWESOME!

First, I have three tiny boxes of VEGAN truffles, I have Inkspell and Inkdeath (which I have been utterly longing for), I have Solas (a Celtic band I adore) CDs and one DVD of them playing, pen book marks and a pretty blue shirt.

Music, Books, Blue and Chocolate... You can't go wrong with that!

Merry Christmas!

Friday FIllins #34

This week's Friday Fillins! This should be fun!

1. Said the night wind to the little lamb, pass the ketchup please, if you can?
2. The first Noel, the angel did say follow the star, on this blessed day.
3. It's snowing Over the hills and everywhere, so we must drive, with every care.
4. It came upon the midnight clear, a rain hard and loud to hear.
5. If you ever get down, and the world doesn't look so bright, just fake a handsome smile, and Let your heart be light.
6. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, Everywhere you go! There's a tree in the grand hotel, one in the park as well, the sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow... oh! It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, soon the bells will start... And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing right within your heart! Right within, your, heart! (I just couldn't add new lyrics to this one)
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to maybe watching Journey to the Center of the Earth, tomorrow my plans include enjoying that Daddy is home ALL DAY(!!!), and Sunday, I want to have a great time with Nana! (she's coming over)


If you'd like to do your own Friday Fillins, find the link on my side-bar, or use this one.


Merry Christmas!

SNOW!

The first sticking snow of the year... oh, wow...


Daddy just came home from the store and told us it was snowing. I look out the back door and sure enough--SNOW!

I throw on the nearest shoes (which turned out to be Daddy's) and just ran--or, as close to running as I can do with these awful joint pains--out there for a few seconds... or more.

It was falling like crazy all over my glasses... falling from a deep blue-black sky, blessing the earth with it's gentle kiss... Now I'm cold to the very center of me from my little 'run around in the snow' without ANY snow gear at all (just shoes ten sizes too big and my shirt and pants) time, but it was so beautiful, and so worth it.

I love snow.

SNOW!!!

There is nothing more magical than snow, besides magic itself. Snow is sooo beautiful... it's the rarest weather down here; if we're lucky, we get it once a year, and if we're very lucky, we might get it twice. Today was the day. Today it snowed!!!

I was watching some TV when a weather guy popped up and said:
"...you people down in ???? are getting snow..." that's all I can remember.
It's not snowing! I thought. I looked out the window, just to be sure.
It was.
I ran to the kitchen where mommy was making dinner.
"It's snowing! It's snowing!"
She doesn't think I'm right. We looked out our back door. There it was... falling gloriously... like a blanket of ice it covered the ground... We immediately got dressed in our snow close and Dear Sister, Brother1 and I went out to play! We had a marvelous time complete with snow ball fights, snow eating, mini avalanches, a snow man (who ended up falling apart so Dear Sister and I split his head and see-sawed instead), snow angles, and absolute snow beauty! I feel so wonderfully happy that I got to see the beauty of snow this year! Please come again soon, Snow!

Jacuzzi Time!

Yes, you read that right, this post is titled 'Jacuzzi Time', even though it's in the middle of winter. What happened was this:

I went to meet some friends to fiddle around with some electronics, so Dear Sister, Mommy, Brother1 and Brother2 all had to go out in the freezing cold and find something to do. Well, they decided to go to the park, and practically froze to death. So, Dear Sister said (yes, Rose, I know that this isn't exactly what you said):
"Why don't we go in a hot tub? You could make us some smoothies and we wouldn't be cold!"
Mommy laughed, but then realized we still had that birthing pool she had used for a home birth with Brother2 (which was actually really nice, we played hang man while she was in labor, seriously), then she suggested that they could fill it up with some hot hot water and we could all hang out in it. They liked that idea.
Anyway, they came and picked me up, we went home, and they told me about it. At first I think their joking, I mean, it's just too good to be true. then next thing I know Daddy's home and setting up the birthing pool! Mommy made some divine vegan parfait and we watched T.V. while we soaked in the luxuriating warmth and ate delicious treats.

All in all, it was some party!

Fall/Winter

I love the feel of fall/winter! I just took a smell of that cold air... Oh my! It feels like Thanksgiving and Christmas! I love the dark, moist air... the cool and starry nights... I keep forgetting how much I love winter and fall until they come around again! I can't wait until Thanksgiving... We're going to make a tofurky! It was SO delicious last year... My mouth is watering just thinking about it... And I'll make some chocolate pudding... yeah, that sounds good... Any way, for Halloween I'll be a harpy (half bird half woman). I'm not going to go trick-or-treating this year because I'm Vegan and I wouldn't like to be around so much candy. I am going to dress up and go to ballet for some Halloween class, it will be a lot of fun. I plan to make a cake! I love cooking. I make meals for my family all the time now, I made us pancakes for breakfast today. I hope you're as excited about fall as I am!
