Happy New Year!!

We spent our New Years in what was once called the "Playroom" at Wilton. It's now Denise's space. It was just all the cousins and their sig. others. A few drinking games were played and then came the countdown and that was it! Nice and chill.. just how I like it!

Happy New Year!

Christmas Dinner With the Cousins

Since there was no Christmas celebration on Jeric's mom's side.. the cousins decided to have a dinner together. Jeric booked a spot at Park Ave, a spot we remembered from when we had our homie Christmas party several years ago.

Surprisingly, we totally got one of the rooms all to ourselves and it had a humungoid tree and a little fireplace. Pretty damn snazzy.

Dinner was delicious. I ordered the Roasted Portabello as an appetizer and then for dinner, I had the herb crusted chilean sea bass and Jeric had the rib eye.

After dinner, we all did our gift exchange, which was lots of fun especially since lots of us didn't buy gifts off of their wishlists. Surprises are way better!

We did stay way over their hours of operation (like seriously an hour or so after closing), but they were genuinely nice about it!

OHF Holiday Social

I got an email from Gen about the OHF Holiday Social. Since she wasn't avail to go, I invited the girls, Marianne, Denise & Liz. Marianne was the only one that was free to go, so off we went!

The had some yummy snacks, which was our first stop. There were madeleines, guava rolls, and all sorts of other pastries. They also had some yummy flavored fizzy drinks and hot cocoa.

There were a couple of craft stations setup, an ornament making one and a holiday card making one. Since the card making station was over crowded, we made our way to an empty-ish table.. grabbed our ornaments and tattoos and spent a good time decorating our ornaments. It's a really cute and simple diy too. You just take a clear glass ornament and stick temporary tattoos on it! Looks best with shiny gold or silver tattoos. Anyhow, once we were done, the card table finally had room for us! We made our way there and had fun making Christmas Cards. Which was just perfect because for Christmas with the Samoza's, our little add on to our secret santa gifts, was a diy Christmas Card.

We both had a lot of fun! Hopefully they have more of these fun little socials!

J-E-L-L-O!

I totally want jello and lots of it! Hahaha. I saw a bunch of pinterest posts showing jello with whip cream, so I had to try it. I made a box of grape jello and layered it in a cup with the whipped cream in between.

I must say.. where have you been all my life? LOL. Sooooo freaking scrumptious!

Our Christmas Tree Is Complete!

Finally our Christmas Tree is done!

It was looking a bit bare, so we added a bit of ribbon and some golden roped balls.

Tada!
