Ornamental

Time for Christmas decorations!
I really love Christmas, and I guess I collect ornaments? But that's the point of ornaments?
My mom gave me all of my childhood ornaments when I moved out of the house, so I have more than most people may age. This is 24 years worth, people! Not that I don't actively add to the collection whenever I find a good one. Recently I've been obsessed with the kind that are open on one side with little trinkets inside to create a scene.
Ah, my beautiful tree and globes and PRESENTS.
  My Mt Rushmore ornament!
Some of my favorite vintage ones, and a little Abraham Lincoln nutcracker from Gettysburg, holding the Gettysburg Address!

Thursday night I went to Need Supply's event in conjunction with Wolverine Boots. If you entered the raffle to win a pair of Wolverine's you got a goodie bag with the possibility of a $100 gift card. So today I went to check and see if me or Jonathan won it and we did! 
I never win anything, so this is like crazy for me! I can't wait to decide what I want! There are so many choices! Gahh!! Also I saw James Spader walking down Cary St. I would rather have seen JGL or Abraham Lincoln, but Spader will do.

While in Carytown we went to Bygones and Jonathan bought me a cute new skirt.

I went home to my parent's house on Saturday to help my mom make her traditional Christmas Chex-Mix (!!!) (also, I have eaten all most all of it already), and I made Jonathan take pictures of me in the woods!
Sweater- Need Supply Co.
Dress- Need Supply Co
Velvet Leggings- American Apparel
Desert Boots-Target
Suede Hair Bow- American Apparel
I really love this sweater! I look like a cute goat, but I think I'm okay with that. I also really love these leggings, even though I'm generally opposed to leggings. These are such a gross/beautiful color though.
Dekota hates them, but they're so ugly I wish they were my furniture.
When I eventually get a real camera I will be updating more often (Mom shoutout for letting me use her camera for this!).
Christmas decorations coming soon!
