wanna have a *picnik*?

Hey, reader!
I just wanted to give a quick shout out to picnik.com - a website that makes photo editing easy. You edit right here on your browser.
Below are the three pics from my previous *new year'sEVE* post all *jazzed* up!
...a little softening here, a little text there, and some pictures just come to life.
(Don't get me wrong, though, I love me some point-and-shoot, one-snap-only, set-exposure polaroids. Oh, yessiree, I do!)
If you haven't checked the website out already, you know what to do.
If you have, then okay!



Love-a-Dub-Dub,
Amanda

What a lovely *Christmas* holiday...

This is what made up my *Christmas Eve* & *Christmas*:

Christmas Eve dinner with the boyf's *Filipino family*

a *sultry* smooch with a roast pig

a lovely look at some lobstahs


the boyf with a *lobstah thumb*

(we got her the same sweater she was already wearing!!
nuts. bonkers. so bazar.
I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it for myself.)
*christmas morning* with Tomas & Bitt

Santa bought us "Crazy for Swayze" t-shirts.
(perfect for us since we're his biggest fans!)

polaroid of us reppin'

we wound down the night at my Aunt Debbie and Uncle Matt's place,
eating turkey and sweet potatoes and vadallia onion pie,
and playing my cousin Sammy's Wii
*great christmas*
how was yours, reader??
i'm dying to know!

my *Bitt*

i think now's a good post to introduce you to my *Bitt*.
you'll see me refer to her A LOT and all my Bitt (or any bitt is for that matter) is a *sister*.
she's my younger sister who came into the world two months after my fourth birthday.

I don't remember life without her, and I can't imagine it now.

she's my best friend and my joke partner,
who *gets* it and tolerates how I annoying I can be,
who dances when I sing and sings when I bust a move.
she's my *Bitt*
my *Bittah*
my *sick & twisted Bitt*
my *Bitty Bop*
my *Bihhhhh-tay*

she takes up a whole half of my heart & anything else that remotely sends me over-the-moon is going to have to squish to fit in the other half-of-my-heart space that has room left in it.

i *heart* my bitt.

it's the *final countdown*

So...what do we got, ya'll?
6 more days until Christmas is here?
Well, if you have a blowout Christmas Eve shindig like my boyfriend's *Filipino family* has every *eve* of *x-mas*, then yeah...you've got 5 more days to go...
*what's your christmas season been looking like?*
Mine looks a little like this:
...and this:
Top Pic: my *sister* bought those funny-Christmas-sayings -postcards from Urban Outfitters & used them as x-mas card notes on her gifts
Bottom Pic: the *nutcracker* is guarding the x-mas presents that we finished wrapping & placed under the tree. tee hee.
