oh christmas tree...

every year since i was born, my grandma griz would give me an ornament for christmas... i would get different ones from my mom and dad, and then every once in a while from yoda, but always, absolutely always i would get one from griz. my mom is tweeker organized. she dated every single one of them. i have lord knows how many ornaments, boxes. my absolute favorite part of the holidays is getting a tree, stringing all the lights and pulling out all of my little treasures to hang. i can sit in the quiet, all the other lights off, and only the lights on that tree for hours....

dont laugh....

see all the pretty lights? see how they are all fuzzy? you have no idea how long i have been trying to get them that way! hahaha... dammit! they call it "bokeh" and i couldnt get it to do it right, light was off, flash was on, you name it, it was not working. but i did it. sooooo exciting! hahaha.

still going....

i take for granted that i live here... im always saying how bad it sucks, and terrible names like dirt hole and sand box... hahaha. however i dont ever realize just how spoiled i am to be here.  i love coming down to the strip to look at all the lights, i cant help it, im like a ferret, attracted to anything shiny. my wynn out did himself this year, the atrium at the bellagio was gorgeous.

i guess i should give this poor dirty town a break... we will see :)

this ones for the homies

i am sooo excited to try and figure out this thing called blog :) haha, not really. but due to popular demand, i figured id try it on for size. but really, does anyone care what im doing? haha... hope everyone is wonderful (which is really just jessica schmoe, cause she is the only one who knows this exists) hope you have a happy christmas eve!
