Ghost of Christmas Past

So in all I had a pretty good Christmas. :) My favorite part was the party I had with my besties Josh, Carla, and Kelsey, plus Cassie and Heaven. I got so many wonderful gifts... I got a beautiful feathery hairband from Josh, plus an amazing dress that he made himself (and still has to give back to me), A thing of 3 cute hairbands from Carla, plus the Specials and a wonderful song Carla wrote me. Kelsey got me an adorable rainbow vest, a really cute black dress to go with it, and a peacock umbrella... ahaha she's so crazy <3. Cassie and Heaven both got me beautiful earrings... Heaven's came in a pack of 3 with a bunch of colorful circles, and Cassie's were silver with butterflies.

Everything minus the dress Josh still has to finish up and give me <3.

I had a good time opening gifts with my family too. Sibling-wise I got a pink scarf from Jessica, plus some iPod covers, a hairbrush from Andrew, and makeup from Gabriella. My mother got me a sewing machine and a Van Helsing DVD for now... she's going to take me to get pretty fabrics and maybe some other stuff later. My godmother/mother's bff and her mother gave me earrings and $20. Presents from my dad come tomorrow. XD

I've also started crocheting again. I've been working on this mini rug thing that I haven't worked on since 9th grade... it's half the length of my bed so that makes me happy. :)

I've only really done a row of stitches since I picked this up, but all I have left to do is finish the letters and the space above them, then hopefully I can start making hats and other things. :)

Christmas Eve

At last, I finished my blog! The name held me back for a while, but I eventually decided that yes, Invisibella will do. Invisibellaty instead of Invisibility... ha ha ha so clever. :P Anyway, my mother decided to take us to Jacksonville for the holidays, so we spent Christmas Eve morning in St. Augustine, with my mother's best friend's mother who is visiting from Brazil (which is why we came here in the first place). Then we had a Christmas Eve dinner at my mother's best friend's sister's boyfriend's house, with people we only just met yesterday (not including my mother's best friend and her best friend's mother). Now I'm back in the hotel. We're leaving tomorrow instead of Friday, so hopefully that means that I can hang out with Kelsosharla before Kelchy leaves for Colombia. MERRY CHRISTMAS!
