{happy (roommate) christmas to all!}

incase you werent aware, Christmas is coming. seriously. get ready.
anyway, the gals and i wanted to do something special for the hollidays but since our respective homes are spread from one end of the country to the other we had to do it before we left for home. we decided a Roommate Christmas Morning would do the trick. but we couldnt just leave it at that, we had to go all. the. way.


it started with Ashleigh reading us The Night Before Christmas the nighte before our Christmas. crazy, i know. Gabs joined us in bed and here we are listening intently to the story. Abish was like sleeping or hateing on us or something, thats why she's not in the pic.

*jess and i pushed our beds together for some odd reason. however we still make our beds sepereatly. there would be SERIOUS problems if we shared blankets and stuff. she's always on my side as it is*

After the story was over Ash and Gabby departed and it was over to slumber land to dream of sugar plum fairies. i couldnt really fall asleep though because there was lots of banging around downstairs. it was the Roommate Christmas Elfs and Santa! They even cleaned the kitchen!

two weeks ago we added a little flair to some stockings to spice up our poor college student decorated apartment. it was a good thing we did so Santa would know who's was who!
when i came down stairs to our Roommate Christmas there were our stockings all lined up on the couch filled to the brim! what good roommate santa helpers we have!
full stockings AND a clean kitchen? doesnt get better than that.

My stocking inluded the following... fuzzy socks! mike&ikes with a funny saying ("is he tall?"(my roommates have a little obsession with: this), a cute christmas cup, playdough, and more candy than i knew what to do with! oh the joy!


while we were digging into the stockings breakfast was being made. breakfast burritos were on the menu and boy howdy! they were yummo! Here is Gabrielle preparing the cook

for the hollidays i made tyedyed pillowcases for the roommates. it was my first honest to goodness tyedying experience, and it was just that. quite the experience. Abish's didnt work quite like i wanted it to but here she is acting like she likes it anyway!

Jessica bought me this book. it will come in handy in the near future. heh.

and then i opened a nice looking box from Ashleigh. and boy did i get excited (see picture). do you want to know what was in it? two round cake pans. and then i saw THE BUNDT PAN! and i couldnt contain myself! it was all just too much! did you know that i love to bake? i do i do! and now i love it even more! i cant wait to get my bake on with these bad boys!

what a lovely Roommate Christmas it was!
