empty library // TRADITION

December 18, 2015
Let's talk Christmas!! Because....you know, somehow Christmas becomes illegal to even think, let alone sing, about for the other 11 months of the year. :P lol! I'm not one for traditions - I like to mix something adventuress in with the old. I love the thrilling feeling of OH this is NEW! lol! I have always tried to rub that off on my family, but alas...no. ;) And as to Christmas morning - I have had this weird thing for always having to be out of my pjs. My mom laughs so hard when she recalls as to how, when I was like 5, I would come down on Christmas morning all dressed and with my hair perfect (at least in my mind.). lol! I've always been the odd one. ;)

 I GOT TO DRIVE MY DADS NEW TRUCK!!!!!!!!!!! (and before Bree too. ha!!!) *victory dance* Somehow I got him to say yes, and I partially regretted that at first. Once I got in the big thing, I was like "wait..what am I doing???". But I made myself BACK out of the driveway, drive into town, and PARK the thing (more than once lol). xD I was also a bit nervous since it is rare to have my dad in the passengers seat. I think I did well enough to warrant me taking the wheel again. :D  

 I went to the library the other night. Okay, people, did you know that on Wednesday nights, libraries are DEAD?!! I walked in there and it was like.. *crickets*. It made the whole library experience.. extra extra EXTRA quiet. I felt like I was Arthur in the episode where he got locked in the library...only I wasn't locked in there. BTW, did you know that Christmas is in 6 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;) 

Weird fact about you??
Are you scared to drive big cars?

Merry Christmas!!!!

      I got some worked on, haha. I didn't finish any that night. But, I did get two quilled projects started and finished yesterday, after babysitting for several hours... I was shocked, haha. I'm glad, though, since we needed to give them to the folks at church today! I still have stuff to finish...I wish mine was all wrapped... Lol!

    I want to drive a truck!..... our family car is the biggest thing I have driven, but it is still a car, though it's large.

      I've been wanting to for a long time too! I still can't get over that I ACTUALLY drove it. lol We also have a 12 passenger van - so I'm used to big vehicles. lol :D

    I don't go to the library often. I know that I would be slightly freaked out, though, if I walked in and the place was practically empty!

    I do the same thing with getting dressed before going downstairs on Christmas! Only I started around 10 ;) We go to the library every Monday for a Spanish class and there are always a ton of people, I couldn't imagine it being empty...

    Love your posts, Julia! A weird fact about me is that I am the BIGGEST Shane Harper geek EVER.
    I do absolutely love to drive big trucks! The biggest car I've ever driven has been a Turbo Diesel Truck. That was such a fun experience. I'd do it all over again!!!!!

    Hmm... two facts about me are:
    1. Chocolate + peppermint is really gross to me. XD (No York peppermint patties for me!)
    2. I am really good at knowing people's name. Not really people I meet fleetingly, ;) but names of characters in books and celebrities' names. Yeah...haha! ;D
    Merry Christmas!!

    Julia I enjoyed your post on Christmas. it is funny but my sisters and I decided to stay in our pajamas this year. We have in the past always got all dressed up,but thought it would be fun to just hang around this Christmas.
    Wishing you and yours a Happy,Healthy New Year full of blessings.
