Christmas. It's late, I know, I'm sorry.

Well, it's 2 days after Christmas, and 4 days till 2010!!!
I got a lot of stuff for Christmas.
In my stocking:
A Toblerone, Santa Snickers, Trident Layers Strawberry/Citrus gum, a big green M&M (as big as the palm of my hand!) filled with regular M&Ms, and a "Magic Santa" ornament from Santa.
From Santa:
The ornament.
From Mom/Dad:
A purple striped shirt, skinny jeans, diamond earrings, and peace sign earrings.
From sister & brother:
Scribblenauts (a game for Nintendo DS/ DSi)
From Grandma:
Gardening Mama (for Nintendo DS), a Nintendo DSi (!!!!!!!!!! My dad helped fund it), and a bracelet.
From my uncle:
A $35 gift card for Target.
From my aunts:
A bag from Auntie Mary, and $33 from Auntie Myrna.

Then we went to my mom's brother's house. The one whose birthday was 5 days ago. My mom's family was there, like her nieces and nephews and sister and brother.
From my uncle's kids, my uncle, and his wife:
A jewelry kit, some jewelry, 4 books in a series, and a learn to knit kit.
From my aunt's kids, my aunt, and her BFF:
The mishap. My brother, who just wanted to open presents and didn't care who they were actually for, opened one of mine which was a box with a shirt, scarf (which is so cute!!!!), and 3 pairs of boyshorts. Everyone in the room started laughing, especially when my brother held them up and said, "For me?" I buried my face in my hands and died laughing a little with my family. A ballerina music box, too. Can't forget a pink ballerina music box.
From my Nana:
A striped scarf with matching fingerless gloves with that little pouch you can pull over your fingers, and 2 pairs of super soft homemade pajama shorts (my mom picked out the fabric).

Then, yesterday, we went shopping, at Target (where I bought a black fedora with a peacock feather), then Sports Authority, then home, then we rested awhile while Dad went to Costco to get our flat tire fixed, then me & mom went to UTC so we could go to Pottery Barn Kids and Anthropologie, then we went to Borders, bought a cream-cheese-filled herb pretzel, and ate it while mom read "Dead Until Dark", the True Blood story, and I read some celebrity magazines, which I really really enjoy.

Well that's all for now. Look at all this! =)

2 more days!!!!!

I can't believe it.... Only 2 more days until Christmas!!!!! And we just got our Christmas tree last night, and right now it's fully decorated... I don't currently have a good picture, but soon I will. Maybe a video too... Follow me on my Twitter (http://twitter.com/imrosete) for a possible update on the tree.

But for now, there's other stuff I should be talking about... like yesterday. We went to my uncle's (and cousins' and aunt's) house. Boy is he lucky. His birthday is 3 days before Christmas- DOUBLE the presents!!!!! And, it is now officially 2 days after the first day of winter! December is going by fast man. It's kind of almost scary. Wait, today's Wednesday, right? Right. So what special news do I have for Wednesday? Not much really. Just that, um, I don't have ballet today. My dad got a holiday bonus- "the best kind." And I'm happy for him.

Feedback: What are YOU doing for Christmas (or the HOLIDAYS, if you don't celebrate Christmas)?

Close to a French word, I think...

Glamorous.

I am obsessed with that word.

My nails are glittery and glamorous today. Homework is so much easier with glamorous nails.

Izzy-B's posterous update: If you are on Izzy-B's posterous right now, congratulations. You are most likely looking at the glamorous new color scheme I just finished updating. If you are on Izzy's Blog right now, please move your cursor down to the orange link that says "izzy-b's holiday blog!!!!" and click. Congratulations, you are now on Izzy-B's Holiday Blog.

Just one thing that is totally UNglamorous: I forgot to wish everyone a glamorous Thanksgiving. So that's what I'm doing now.

 

Bye.
