The only reason why I'm sitting down is because I got my four wisdom teeth removed and the swelling is stopping me from working!
So much has happened since January. A big step in life and now Josh and I are working even harder to secure everything in place. Oh especially Josh. The poor boy's been working for a month now without any days off. Heart aches but that's why I fell in love with him in the first place :)
Everything's going to be better this year on! With our big commitment, another friend's special day and a girlie graduating coming home! Yay happy me!
Spent my first Christmas and New Year's in Italy last year and I felt like it just flew by!
Beautiful Chloe & I
Ok, before I dated Josh, I never knew of a Presepe!
It's basically a little village they build to replicate the birth of Jesus AND I LOVE IT! Come midnight all the houses fill up the empty nest with baby Jesus. It's so fun! An adult play house! That's it under the tree.
I was always kept in awe and I can't believe every single house in the area (Well southern Italy mostly) sets this up. I've made up my mind and I'm going to do it in my own house too. Even if it's more of a Catholic thing. In church we used to act! I think I was a lamb at some point. Mediocre. Mehhhh
Already I was taken aback and sooo amazed by all this (on top of the fact on how I managed to never chance upon this since I love wee houses) but when Josh's aunt brought me into her living room to see hers I went "HUUUUUUHHHH WOOOOOOWWWWW!" She couldn't stop laughing cause I literally froze and actually teared a bit. I really hope she didn't see me tear but she was so happy. Anyway this is her presepe.
It's bigger than my bed!
She won awards for having the biggest presepes! Few trophies and no wonder, she even had an electronic fisherman removing fish from the pond repeatedly. Mind blown.
Jelly bean factory from my lovely brother!
Huge lip balm set from my best friend Joyce. Now, I've finally got enough lip balms to last me a lifetime.
