Christmas and the gift list.

So Christmas was good, felt really out of tradition this year, but good.

Since I had work till 10:30pm Christmas Eve, everyone had Christmas Eve dinner without me. The evening felt even more rush when I came over to watch the traditional "Polar Express" movie (one of my favorites) as we do on Christmas Eve, but my mother was sick, and went to bed early, and everyone just pretty much talked loudly (or where drunk) and I felt like I was mostly watching it by myself. 
Christmas Day was a lot better. Usually my fiance and I stay at my moms Christmas Eve, but this year my mom just told us to go back to our place, so we did, and came back early in the morning. Gift opening was fun, I love seeing the reaction to people with the gifts I gave them more then my own, haha. 
I got from my mom, sister, fiance, and room-mates: 
. Some jewelry. 
. A pocket mirror that totally represents my OC's Katsu and Sai. 
. A beautful Scarf. 
. Taco Nyan Cat T-Shirt. 
. J.K. Rowlings  new book "The Casual Vacancy" (so excited for this, thanks my love fiance)!!
. Bailey's in a Shoe (literally, I love it). 
. A Kindle!! 
. Subscription to "Martha Stewart Living" magazine (I am ignoring the Martha Stewart part). It's basically a home DIY magazine, kinda cool. 
. A Christmas Ornament.

After Christmas at my moms, we went back home and let the cat's rip at their stockings (well not literally, we pulled all the stuff out for them) and go at their new toys, then my Dad and Stepmom came by and we opened presents, and left to go have Christmas Brunch, well the room-mates headed off to their families/lovers. 
My dad and stepmom got me: 
. Hot Topic Gift card.
. JC Pennies gift card.
. Van's Shoes gift card.
. Barnes and Nobles gift card.
. A Christmas Ornament.  
We went and had Brunch at the Cascade Grill, which was willing filling in the end. A huge plate of Thanksgiving/Christmas food, and topped off with pie. 
After my dad and stepmom dropped us off, my fiance and I hung out at the house till his parents dropped in to see us. They opened their presents from us and it was a lot of fun to just sit and chat with them. 

After they left things got pretty boring, so my fiance and I decided to just randomly hop on the train and go see a late night movie. We ended up seeing Cirque Du Soleil: World's Away (which I wanted to see anyways) in 3D. IT. WAS. SO. GOOD!! It's based off all the show's that are currently in Las Vegas, and since I saw two of the three biggest ones there, it totally brought memories back!! Seeing my loves face to all the actual filmed stunts was awesome too. I hope I can take him to a real one someday. I plan to go see the movie again with the roomies next week, so excited! I definitely recommend it!! It was beautifully done..course anything Cirque Du Soleil (or James Cameron directing movie wise) is. 

Besides that, I got a couple gifts from friends, which is a rare thing! I rarely expect gifts, I just like to give, so it was a nice suprise!!
I got a three tier bento box with a beautiful crane design on it, a comission of my OC Sai and my friends OC (and Sai's lover) Kit,  and some Kat Von D "True Romance" eyeshadow kit (looove)

So yes, all and all, Christmas was fun. Now to bring on the New Year!! :D 

Hope everyone is having a wonderful and safe day/night!! <3 <
