This Feels Unreal.

Finally exams are over and Christmas break is here!!! This week has been hectic and I'm so tired of studying, and studying, and studying. I'm excited to see my family tonight and sleep in tomorrow. 


























Tomorrow I'll be back to post and hopefully soon I'll have some Christmas recipes and other holiday extravaganza to share!

The Greene: 1st Time Ever.

Bethany, Jess and I didn't go to the Greene until yesterday although we planned to go there almost a week ago. The original day we planned on it was gray and rainy. Our substitute day wasn't good, either because Bethany had too much studying to do. At least we made it there eventually!  I asked Bethany and Jess if Anh Thu could come, too, and they readily agreed.

Our first stop: the huge Christmas tree in one of the little parks between stores. It was afternoon, so it was hard to see the lights, but the tree was still a spectacular sight!






























































































We went on to American Eagle Outfitters, where Anh Thu tried on several winter hats. They were all so comfortable and stylish. I would love one but they're kind of out of my price range.










































































































































The rings we stumbled upon at Forever 21 were quite large. Anh Thu tried 4 on at one time to see what it would look like. I'm not sure I would ever wear a ring that big. Would you?
























When we first arrived at the Greene I saw the sign for Yogurt Mountain and got really excited because I love frozen yogurt so much, and I had heard of the place, but never been there before. We made a stop there for a treat before heading back to Cedarville. The cake batter and cookies 'n cream flavors were my favorite!




























































































































I'd say it was a worthwhile study break with some of the best friends ever! Jess, Bethany and Anh Thu - y'all are awesome!
