The Holidays

I've never been a big Christmas person. Which totally makes me a Scrooge I know; but sometimes I want to lock myself in a room for all of November and December, eat chips and salsa in my underwear, and watch non-Christmas themed movies. But then after all the running around, shopping, stressing and gorging myself on sugar; it's a good time. Plus, I can always eat chips and salsa in my underwear for New Year's tonight, because we all know New Year's Eve sucks ass.

You know who's not very good at wrapping presents?

Zach.

Here's Sweener Todd doing what she does best, kissing things when we demand it.

Her nickname was Sweetner because she makes everything sweeter, which then morphed to Sweener, which then morphed to Sweener Todd thanks to Johnny Depp and his weird bloody movie.

Speaking of blood. Here's Zach doing what he does best, with his white elephant present he received at the Guttery party.

This is my fiance, like for real. (*sigh)

At another party, hosted by Mamasita, Zach demonstrated to everyone how to eat oranges with salt and chile powder. My mom was skeptical...

...but she tried it. And not many people can make orange-eating look this good.

She approved.

It was then off to Holbrook of course, where I shivered from the cold for 24 hours straight.

Maybe because I didn't get a new Christmas robe like my dad and Hailey.

But I did get my chips and salsa thanks to my stepmom's parents' delicious restaurant, Joe and Aggie's.

All (straight) men suck at wrapping gifts. Just a fact.
You are lucky you get so many X-mases!

Yeah, were you trying to slide by the fact that Zach's pants were undone? Because that's the way I wrap presents, too. (no, really, it is)

I'm so glad Christmas is over!

Golly Gee thanks for posting those kick ass pictures of me. Next time, make sure you try an even worse angle.

Zach what is up with the pants?

Your dad and Hailey in those robes are classic.

...and let's give credit where credit is due, Tim dubbed her Sweener Todd...
