crafts, lights, & christmas


 i attended the renegade craft fair in the city this weekend with abbie! i love going to these craft fairs : )




 the city was so beautiful
i got my first christmas gift of the year! a lovely scarf from rachel. (love me some scarves!)
 i went with my mom to celebrate her straight a's this semester at school at our favorite ice cream parlor. i love their holiday peppermint ice cream!
 rachel & abbie came to visit & see my apartment. we had coffee & dessert at the old spaghetti factory & i took them to see the best christmas lights in the city. they even had an a christmas story scene (by the way, best christmas movie ever!)!


(sorry so blurry!)

so, i finished my last paper & turned it in last week. after that, life has been a little bit of a world wind! parties, dates, visits from friends, & good food - all with a festive flair : )

i think this post has too many photos of myself...maybe i should take some down... :/

sooo excited for this!!!
love this home : )
also, my friend olivia just made a music video! check it out here.

anyways, i hope you are all having a wonderful holiday season!! i probably won't be back blogging before christmas, so happy holidays!

  1. Craft fairs are by far the best.

    I, too, love me some scarves. I just recently purchased an infinity scarf and I am in love.

    If you don't post again until then, Merry Christmas!

  4. The craft fair looks so nice. I know nice isn't the best adjective, but really, that's what it seems like to me, haha. :) And yes, the city does look so gorgeous! And mmm... ice cream is perfect all year 'round.
