drew licks his lips.
christmas was so much fun. i really enjoyed myself this year, i can't remember the last time i had such a nice time at the holidays. i got to be with my family & best friend & then chris joined us all a little later.
on monday we rented a van & made the 4.5 hour trip to IKEA to get some goodies. we ended up spending about $900 and came home with a framed painting, a new bed, nightstands, chest of drawers, a vase, shelving, candles, candlesticks, etc etc. the back of the van was full of fun stuff that weighed a ton. the next couple days were spent cleaning the old apartment & putting together all our purchases. finally yesterday we got done at piss lake & i turned in the keys. it was the best feeling i've ever had, getting those keys out of my hand & knowing i would never have to spend another night there. seriously, a weight was lifted off my shoulders.
last night we slept in our newly decorated room & it was perfect. aside from the fact that bella was cold so she kept nudging her head under the covers & climbing in the bed to sleep on my legs. yes, it was damned cute but she made it hard to sleep. chris wanted to kill both dogs numerous times throughout the night. drew was sleeping on my pillow so i was scooted down on the bed & drew kept licking his lips in chris' ear. it doesn't bother me but i'm used to him doing that & i love him more than life. chris isn't used to it & i don't think he loves drew the same way i do. ;)
i'm rambling. i love the holidays.
