Christmas early... my favorite =)

Today was my Christmas with the fiance 

{even though we ended up going to my parents house unexpectedly after a facetime request}

Santa has always come a day early so that we could go to Nonna's & Grandma's house.

 Got new candles for the pine cone holders that I recently thrifted from the Rescue Mission in Trenton & lit them all for our christmas, I LOVE candles they just make me happy, you know? 

& some eggnog 

his spiked, mine not 

which was lucky since barry sneaked some sips when I was opening presents.

Speaking of presents...

Guess what I got?!?! 

Hint:

 &

I must have been a very good girl this year because santa (aka the fiance) spoiled me rotten =) 

So what is in the boxes you ask?!?!

Well #1:

a puppy charm for my pandora bracelet, it is adorable!

I have two pandora bracelets.

Silver: from fiance 3 years ago- charms from fiance & mother-in-law.

Brown: from friends at college graduation

& what is in the Chanel box you ask?!

Say a holiday hello to my new Chanel ballet flats =) 

I have wanted these since... well this is awkward but I am going to share...

I created this folder of "Unattainable things that I love" in middle/high school
{everyone has these... right?!}:

#1 on the list? these flats. 

8+ years later and the best fiance ever = success. 

I will not be taking these off for a while. years maybe. they may have to surgically remove me from these shoes. 

What I Wore: khaki blouse- Michael Kors via Plato's Closet, rose button up- thrifted Rescue Mission in Trenton {being paid in clothes for tutoring- sorta}, pleather leggings- Forever 21 via Plato's Closet, Chanel ballet flats- christmas gift from the fiance =).

What did we get barry? 

Nothing.

I know terrible parents. 

He has like a bazillion toys & we step on them every morning. 

He didn't even notice:

It is all fun and games when he eats the wrapping paper

until someone throws up. 

Yes this boy threw up in the car. in my hand. 

Merry Christmas.
