Happy Holidays!
The plan is always very very simple when I go home:
- Soak up the sun&sea.
- Sleep (in Hazel’s room).
- Hug mom every morning; kiss dad when he comes home from work.
- Eat & laugh with old friends.
- Bake something delicious.
- (to be added to the list: Photograph everything.)
It (obviously) doesn’t take much to make me happy! I can’t wait for Christmas (& I’ve been in a gift wrapping/music playing frenzy the past week haha). Maybe it’s because Thanksgiving is over, and NOW is the real time to start celebrating Christmas (no freakin September!)
It took me 6 years away from home to realize that this is my absolute favorite time of the year - being surrounded by people who i love/love me & giving gifts and see the look of surprise on their faces.
I love being in a place where I don’t have to explain who I am because everyone there has seen me grow into this complex woman I’ve become.
I can’t wait to be home!
