Christmas Decorations!

I finally got around to taking pictures of our decorations last night! I love Christmas, but its just not as exciting now that me and all my sisters are grown up. We don't go as all out as we used to. And my nephew is still young enough that we can't fully decorate because he will just pull it down. >.< But its ok, because "Santa" still leaves presents just for him!

This year I pretty much put up all the decorations by myself due to the hch Chrissoween Party I hosted. Its been a few years since we really put the decorations up as a family due to different schedules. But I don't mind, since I'm so particular about everything. XD

I think our living room looks really magical at night with all the lights.

I forgot to take a close up of our tree! T_T But here are some of my favorite ornaments:

Made by my older sister, I believe.

Made by my mother. This is my absolute favorite!

Again, made by my older sister.

I think this one with a picture of my nephew is so sweet >u< I think he wasn't even 1 yet!

The top of our entertainment center.

We hang ornaments and lights in our windows, too!

Hayden's cute visits with Santa!

We also have a few decorations up in our dining room.

Ornaments hanging from our chandelier.

We can't put our presents under the tree until Christmas day because out cats will r u i n them. So they are stacked awkwardly on this table instead. XD Man, I really need to do some wrapping as well!

Are you getting in the holiday spirit?

I got a kigu!

YAY! I have wanted a kigurumi for so long, and I finally gave in and ordered one for myself and Rin.

I ordered from kigurumi-shop.

I was very pleased with their service. They sent very prompt email notifications, and gave me a UPS tracking number. It also shipped in very fast! They were just under $60, which seems to be the standard price. I've never seen a cheaper price at conventions or online.

I bought Rin the cute and cuddly Owl (which is a soft pile fabric), and myself the fierce Halloween Black Cat (which is a nice fleece).

They are really nice quality, and very warm - and I've only gotten overheated once! My only complaint is that is is a tiny bit short in the legs for me. My ankles do show. ):  I don't feel like 5'6" is very tall, but I've been told I have long legs. And these are made for Asian people, so I guess I have to take that into consideration.

It has nice sweater cuffs instead of plain elastic.

Cute embroidery, and the mouth and tail are stuffed!

I decided to do a manba inspired look, but got too tired halfway through to complete the look. Nevertheless, here are some camwhore pics!

My scary before and after! 

Honestly, I could live in a kigu. Do you have one?

Camwhore, food, and Toys!

Last week I had a super lovely day out with my boyfriend. I was really excited to be going out since we were going to eat at Conner's with his dad. When Rin asked me what the occasion was, I replied, "Uh...his mom is out of town?" lol His mom is visiting family in Korea. I wish I could go too!
