Christmas Eve

Day 218 (Dec. 24th)

"Dude, I know you!"

Christmas Eve! I will admit I was pretty darn excited. Christmas came and went so fast this year. I mean, I still can't believe it's come and gone for the year. This Christmas Eve, I woke up late in the morning. Mom and I had to go to the mall, again. We had to pick up one last Christmas gift. I also had to get pictures printed at Superstore. Once we were done all that, we headed home.
I relaxed for the afternoon; watched television and stuff. I then got ready for the annual Christmas eve service at my church. I always look forward to that. I wore my favorite red dress and just left my hair to be all Taylor Swifty.
After the service was done, I went downstairs to say a merry Christmas to my friends. I ran into one Zack Davis, that I'd met several months earlier at Potential Impact. Apparently his family lives in the area, although he lives several hours away. It was so cool to see a familiar face!
Dad picked me up after the service and we drove to Irving Big Stop. It turns out that the restaurant there was close. So where did we end up going? McDonald's of course. The employees made me laugh as I waited to pick up our "food." They really do have the greatest staff there.
Once I arrived at home, I decided to watch The Holiday. Christmas tradition and all. It may come as a shock, but not long into the movie, I fell asleep. Ah well.
