Christmas Photo Dump

December 26, 2012 by · 16 Comments

Whew, I am finally back in Orange County after a quick trip up to San Francisco for Christmas. 
I had a fabulous time catching up with my family, 
reading Gone Girl, talking about wedding plans, and basically just eating tons and tons of food. 

Yup, that week of cross fit and paleo dieting is no match for cranberry sauce and swiss orange chip ice cream. 

Here is a recap of my past few days:
This is my family’s dog Buster. He’s more like a house cat and you have to beg him to sit next to you.

He barely chews on his toys. Being 10 years old and all.

This is my twin brother Connor. We are 9 minutes apart…he’s older.

Momma made her famous spaghetti and meatballs. Definitely not on the Paleo diet. 

I went to the Westin St. Francis to see the amazing 
gingerbread castle. 

Walked down to Union Square to see the Christmas tree.

At night all the Macy’s wreaths light up.

The tree is so massive you can’t get it all in the picture.

My Christmas outfit. 

Waiting patiently to open presents.

Champagne is a must while opening gifts.

I was a very good girl this year!

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas with your families. 
 Let’s get back into the swing of things before New Years!

    Is Gone Girl any good? I read Gillian Flynn’s other two books, but haven’t gotten to Gone Girl, yet.
