Rockin' Around

Hey there, How goes it?
Last week my girlfriend invited me to a Christmas Party for her job. I decided to pull out a dress that was actually gifted to me last year by another girlfriend of mine. She bought it from ASOS, which was my favorite store last year! It didn't fit her, so thank God for friends, eh!! :)

If the shoe fits...

The party was a lot of fun, we ate great, had a few bevs... and at one point 90% of the people at the party were on the dance floor. That was the highlight of my night! Needless to say it was a very fun night! It definitely got me in the Christmas spirit! 


WHO'S EXCITED FOR THIS WEEKEND!!??
This weekend I will be heading to my parents house, which is about 15 minutes from me. We are doing a secret santa, which we started a couple years ago. One for the adults and one for the kids. It takes the pressure off of having to buy lots of gifts, or go broke for Christmas. 

Don't get me wrong, I like giving gifts, especially the thoughtful ones that take a little effort. But, at one point everyone was getting so stressed trying to get everything, and we decided to make it more focused on God and family versus material things. However, my mom people still bend the rules and get gifts for others!

We don't do a big dinner for Christmas Eve, usually that's done on Christmas Day. For Christmas Eve, we are going to be having walking tacos! And I am super excited because I love tacos and adding Doritos to them just makes them even better! If you don't know what walking tacos are, they are just when you put all the fixings of a taco (meat, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, taco sauce, sour cream etc) in a personal size bag of tortilla chips, fritos, etc. It just makes it easier and it mixes it all up for you. It is delish! 
You must try them!!

Speaking of food, 
last night I had a girl's night with my faves. We made dinner and talked about our goals for 2012. 

Roasted chicken with veggies, red potatoes, macaroni & cheese and side salad.
And WINE of course! It wouldn't be a ladies' night without it!

Hope you all have a Merry Christmas! Can't wait to see what you get! :)
Enjoy your weekend!

  2. I have been dying to go to a Christmas party but I haven't had one to go to! You guys looked great!

    And I just had to mention, the celebrity that comes to mind when looking at your pics is Taraji P. Henson. She's so beautiful and you definitely resemble her. IDK if it's the shape of your face, or what...

  7. Thanks for stopping by my blog! Yours is gorgeous! :)

    Looks like you're having fun this Christmas season. Super cute dress, and it looks like you had fun cooking.

    I was way too broke to do much shopping this year, and while I love gift giving, it was definitely a relief to not have to do it.

    Merry Christmas!
