christmas swap

Today is a good day. It's Friday, my hair is washed, I treated myself to Starbucks, I am wearing new kicks (these ones in case you were curious), my sister and I are headed to my parents for the weekend.... and I finally get to show off the gifts I got from the Christmas Swap that Kasey from Life and Love with Mr. Wonderful hosted. 

I was super excited to be paired up with Laura from Happily Ever Parker. The girl didn't disappoint. Here is the one problem though, I took a bunch of pictures with my DSLR of the cute items, buttttttI I still can't find my camera charger and it's dead and I can't upload them. Wa wahhhhhh. 



Oh, well. This iphone picture will have to do. The gifts were super cute. I was in need of new hair ties (it's like she knew!) and I can't wait to use the new stationary...did I mention the dark chocolate peppermint bark is already gone? whoopsies Plus, I am currently wearing the gold glitter nail polish (proof), - granted it's already chipped from when I put it on the other day, but you can't win 'em all. 

Thanks again, Laura! And extra thanks to my girl Kasey for hosting too :)

And since it's #backthatazzup Friday, with Whitney I wanted to share a different version of the Christmas song I can't get enough of 'This Christmas'. This version is done by Christian Aguilera, which side note: can we talk about how happy I am she is back to normal. Less spray tan and less annoying! Good for her.

Cheers!

Shoe jealousy, right here.

I want to try that kind of hair tie! I'm tired of rubber bands that rip my hair out, and mine is super curly so it's even worse.

Tiffany said...

How fun!! You can never, ever have too many hair ties :)

Have fun this weekend!!

I have now tried every battery charger in my family and it looks like I'm buying instead of borrowing. :(
