So this Christmas was always going to be a bit of a weird one. With my Grandpa passing away a few years ago Christmas has never been quite the same, and this year for the first time we had it at my Mum and Dad's house rather than my Grandma's.
My Sister and I wanted to go Ice Skating last year and this year and we kept just not going, so finally on Christmas eve after a nice peaceful day we chucked on our skates and went skating. I won't lie, I tried a teeny tiny Yuri!!! on Ice related move. Luckily I quickly realised this was not a good idea and carried on skating normally. I really enjoyed it though, I had a really nice evening and it was the perfect things for a Christmas really.
We had to stay over at Matt's Mum's house to look after the cat and she only lives a few minutes walk from my Mum's house. So I got home showered and watch Muppets Christmas Carol as you must on Christmas eve and then headed over to Matt's Mum's house around 11pm.
AND then before you knew it, it was Christmas morning....... I was thoroughly spoilt as per usual and I was very happy with my gifts. I got lots of manga, a nendroid, books, necklaces, socks and my favourite biscuits. My best friend also got Placebo's new album signed for me and that is amazing! When we were younger we promised each other if she ever got Brian Molko's autograph she would give it to me and if I ever got Courtney Love's I would give it to her. She did in fact get Brain's and never gave it to me.... but this more than makes up for that! She even convinced them to sign my name. I was actually left speechless when I opened it and I absolutely love it!
I also got pun socks which keep making me laugh and Matt got me the Yuri!!! on Ice soundtrack which I haven't stopped listening to since Christmas.
Matt really wanted the Snow Miku nendroid back in October so I managed to find one and got that for him and he seemed really happy with it!
Christmas dinner was lovely with my family and super relaxed. My Mum can cook a bloody good Christmas dinner and it was all gluten free too! We just chilled out, napped and watched movies in the afternoon and Matt and I headed home for the evening.
The rest of our time off was spent it pyjamas getting fat and being super lazy, which was exactly what I wanted to do. We did venture out to the sales one afternoon and I bought myself a lovely coffee machine which I absolutely adore.
And now here we are in 2017 and I am sure before I know it, it will be Christmas time all over again!
