One Last Holiday Post... NEW YEARS!

Every year for New Years, for as long as I can remember, my family and I have had a big party with homemade egg rolls and fried rice. I had to work New Years Day so I couldn't be home for this year. I convinced my roommates to help me throw a big New Years Eve party! We had so much fun! 

Here are some pictures from our EGG ROLL EXTRAVAGANZA!

Melanie, Jenna ("The Dome"), Sergio, and me
We had everyone make their own party hats. It was hit! But we are still finding glitter everywhere.

I forgot to take pictures of the actual egg rolls and fried rice...but they were oh so delicious! I have a lot of filling and wrappers left over so I need to make more. YUMMY!

The Holidays continued...

Christmas exploded in our house this year. And it was so pretty!! We had 2 trees because my roommates already had Christmas stuff and I wanted to use mine too. So I bought another tree. :-) I wish I would have taken some pictures at night but I forgot and now  its too late because most of it is down. Oh well!! You can still see how cute it all is!  







 The star is a little small but that is what I had and I couldn't find anything better. However, yesterday I found a cool tree topper on clearance at Target. I will need to spray paint it silver but it was only $4.50!






I hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas!!

The Holidays!!

So I know it's January but I'm putting up pictures of Thanksgiving.
I had to work Thanksgiving this year (don't even get me started with how bad that day was) so I went up to Utah the weekend before for our "Fakesgiving". We made lots of yummy food! 


Sweet Potatoes! We found the recipe for Ruths Chris Sweet Potatoes. AMAZING!!

Christmas and New Years Pictures to come.... ;-)
