Twas the night before Christmas..

 Tomorrow is the day. 24 hours until Christmas. For some reason this year, time flew by. My first day off since coming home. I started my Sunday, by watching some Disney Christmas movies. After they went off my plan was to go to church but I had to help my aunt with some things since she wasn't feeling good. I got dressed and went to run some errands. Earlier it was snowing and FREEZING, but I thought it would heat up. I went to the grocery store to pick up some stuff to drop off at my aunts house. I loved seeing my little cousins, Dylan and Joey, they literally make my heart melt every time I see them. When I'm with them I never want to leave. Yes, they get on my last nerve but I always have fun with them.
After I left my aunties house, I went home to meet my mom so we could get our nails and feet done. Lord knows I needed a pedicure, I've been procrastinating on going because I think I'll get sick going from that warm water to the cold air outside, but it was time. I normally only go to my nail techs that I trust but I desperately needed my nails done and I was on her tab. She ended up getting red nails and I got green, put us together and it's the perfect Christmas set.
 
After the nail shop I came home to clean up for the guests. My nana and other aunt are coming to spend the night so we can wake up Christmas morning all together as one big family. I tried to leave myself two hours to go to Starbucks to finish editing and working on things for the site. When I pulled up to what I thought was Starbucks I was in for a rude awakening. They closed my go to Starbucks down. So I decided to go to another. WHY WAS THAT ONE CLOSED TOO!!!? I pulled over to a parking lot to search for one. I called three and they all were closed or weren't picking up. The only one that was showing up open in my maps was 25 miles from me. Any other time I wouldn't mind driving that far, but it was still snowing and the roads weren't the best. On my way home I passed a Target and decided why not give it try. THANKFULLY, the Starbucks stand in there was open. AND they let me pay with my app so that I could get my points. I was so happy. 
When I left Target, I went to meet my family at the movies. My mom, dad, brother and I went to see Jumanji 2. Now, I was a little skeptical about going because I loved the first one and didn't want to be disappointed. Well I saw it and...(Drumroll please) It was actually really funny. I was surprised that it was't corny. To be honest, they could have named it something else but hey. Overall, the movie was pretty good and I'd recommend you go see it. Now, its a little on the PG-13 side they did curse a few times and had jokes that weren't meant for young kids. 
After the movies, my family and I came home. I ended my night making Christmas colored cupcakes with my little brother. I wanted to do ginger bread houses but I don't know how. Plus, I've been wanting cupcakes for a while. Growing up being the only child, I was never able to do things like this so I'm making up for it now. 
Well we didn't finish until about 11:45pm. So let me tell you early, Merry Christmas! Make sure you hug all of your loved ones tonight. Happy holidays, until tomorrow....
Have A Holly Jolly Christmas, 
Dymond🎄⛄️❤️
