Welcome Back
Hey Everyone!!!
I hope your Winter Break was as fun and eventful as mine! I want to share a short summary of my break when I was busy from start to finish.
It all started Dec 16th, when I was able to leave early because I had finished all of my finals. My flight was at 3pm. I left at 11pm. (Crappy to say the least >.<) Then had to stay at a New Jersey airport over night and arrived home early the next morning. The weather was beautiful. I had to quickly remove my layers since it was 70+ degrees when I arrived at 11am. When I finally got home I had to quickly arrange a schedule to allow everyone I wanted to visit time to see and leave room for family and whatever my mom had planned for me. I cooked, cleaned, held parties and did so much! I definitely need to take some me time next break, lol. Christmas was amazing! I received more gifts then I thought I was going to received and loved watching my family enjoy their gifts. I left Scottsdale, Arizona Dec. 28th to Loveland, Colorado to visit my boyfriend, his family.

I was able to be there for my boyfriend’s birthday and New Years! He had never done the whole stay up till midnight and watch the ball drop then make massive noise when the New Year came, so I planned it and had him do it. ^^ I had a great time and even had an accident. You see, I always drink sparkling cider for New Years and he was very excited about it. He decided it was smart to tip the bottle and chug the cider. When nothing happened he suggested him I do it. I told him no, it would explode (in a sense), but he convinced me. Low and behold it exploded on me and shot into my face and all over around me......Then he was really enjoying himself. I stayed for another week visiting friends, arranging visits with people (such as my father) etc. Then I went two hours south to Denver where I stayed with my grandparents.

They took me to see people I hadn't seen in a long time, to the Western Stock Show, and did fun stay at home things that allowed us to bond and visit from the long time spent apart. We watched old home videos, watched music videos that interested us and shared things we had encountered over the year. I had limited time with them, but ever minute with them was fun. I had a great time! Unfortunately, the end of the break came and I left January 13th to come back.

Though I miss home and everyone that I left thousands of miles away, I am happy to be back. There is definitely something about this place that made me miss it. I hope everyone agrees with me for some reason or another.
Well, that’s all for now. I plan on blogging more, which may make them shorter, but you never know. Have a great week everyone! Don't forget to comment and share your thoughts and your break experiences.
Merry Meet and Farewell for now!
