questaChristmas was all sorts of amazing~
I was able to get all my shopping done on the 23rd...thankfully the mall wasn't too crazy, I was worried because I was cutting it so close.
Christmas Eve James came and picked me up, we hauled a couple bags full of gifts (some from me and some from my Mum) over to my brothers place where she had gone over in the morning to cook the dinner.
Candace was there too so 6 of us in all, it felt strange not having the cats around.
Dinner was yummy, lots of turkey and stuffing *love* thank god I had my appetite back but for some reason I had a stupid dry cough which eating seemed to aggravate -_-
Afterward we opened gifts, its our tradition to open Christmas Eve but its James to do it Christmas day so we kept our presents to each other and ones from his family at his place to open then.
Chris and Dana gave me the usual and muchly needed GC, from my Mum I got my favourite perfume, the Hello Kitty fish eye camera, chocolates, an angel figure (I collect angel stuff), socks and Lush stuff. Candace even got me a Body Shop gift card which was cool, I wasn't even expecting anything from her...and she loved the Lush and bath set my Mum and I got her. She even had a gift for James ^_^
Stayed and visited with everyone for awhile and then thankfully left before we got stuck watching Christmas movies :P
Had to get back to switch cats + James and I wanted to help the cats open the package they got from the Kittypix Secret Santa exchange.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lorraineb sent them yummy cat food...one each and a wrapped package for each kitty!
They both went batshit over a little Christmas tree fabric pillow...nothing could tear them away from that. Sadly I wasn't around when Taro got her's because by the time she came out of the bedroom James and I had left. I still have to edit the photo's I took of Padme. They also each got a catnip long pillow with a feather at the end to kick the crap out of and a little ball. It was so nice ^_^
Got back to James' place and crashed kinda late, we'd put off buying the tree we wanted and it sold out so we didn't have one...I ended up painting a tree and we both loved it XD
his family started calling at 9am to wish him Merry Christmas so I staggered up...well sorta...I was up but still in bed. I've never been up that early Christmas Day before :X!
His Sister gave me the newer Olympic mittens which actually fit me, with some cash stuffed inside. His parents gave me a gift card with an amount that combined with what James stuck on it...had me in tears. They wanted to give me the ability to spoil myself and get some much needed clothing items. I was so surprised. His family is so kind.
On top of the GC James gave me one of the most beautiful cards I've ever received, complete with personal message. The kitty pillow I received a couple months early and then two beautiful drawings I need frames for. One of Padme and one of Ewok. I love them (and him) to death.
He also cooked us an awesome breakfast, bacon, eggs...the whole deal XD We lazed around most of the day getting some much needed rest and then he hopped on his new X-Box while I crashed out for a 4hr nap. We'd planned on grabbing hot chocolates and driving around later in the evening to look at Christmas lights but we were just so dammedlazy cozy that we stayed in ^_^
Boxing day we slept in then went out to brave the craziness at Metrotown. After driving around for an hour looking for parking we gave up and parked several blocks away at a friends place then hopped skytrain for one stop. Took the stairs because the tunnel was at a stand still o_o
The mall was of course nuts, we spent about 3hrs there and a 30mins of that was in a line up at La Senza. I managed to get some jammies, knickers, fuzzy socks, a new pink bra and some boots. Still got a lot left which is great too ^_^
Tomorrow we are off to another mall so he can do some shopping and I can stop at Petsmart, the cats need some new cardboard...they love the stuff.
Still got the cough but so far it has not made its way to my chest, maybe I can actually go 2 years without a bloody chest infection -_-!
Hope everyone else had a great Christmas ^_^
