things I love about the holiday season:

  1. hot cocoa + peppermint schnapps = toasty
  2. profile pics w/ironic photoshopped santa hats
  3. friends coming home from the far, far corners of the earth
  4. the yule log burning on the flat screen
  5. the christmas story on repeat for a full 48 hours
  6. exchanging gifts with family, friends, and the boyfriend
  7. a new year with new resolutions (which I have no illusions of keeping)

did I forget anything? OH! a special 2011 event (well, technically it will be 2012): adventures at the rose bowl with little sister.
