christmas eve eve

well... it is christmas eve eve day. hahaha.

this year is a weird christmas. kaetlyn won't be here, she is in iceland. and drew is living in kamloops and will be coming tomorrow, and leaving after we do presents on tuesday morning. almost every christmas we have been all together. but this year is also (i think) the only year we have done christmas dinner with a bunch of extended family. i think that is going to be a lot of fun.

i have already decided what i am making for christmas dinner dessert (although last night i found out there are actually way more people coming than i thought, and so i am going to have to make more than one dessert). i found this recipe for an eggnog cake with spiced rum and vanilla bean in it. it sounds sooooooo good. pretty stoked.

i have done my best to go all homemade this year. and i almost succeeded. i am going shopping today after work to try and finish things up and get the rest of what i need. i also need to finish my last couple of projects (nothing like last minute). i haven't even started kaetlyn's yet. although i have told her that it will be more of a christmas/valentines day present because it will take forever to get to her, haha.

i have decided that i would like to get back to writing on my blog more regularly. i needed a little break (not that i was writing on it that much before) but now i am ready to get back at it.

soooo.... check back soon!
