tender tennessee christmas

Merry Christmas Eve!!! I'm so excited for Christmas I could just die :) Yesterday we took advantage of the frigid weather and went sledding! Nothing better than sliding down a hill toward a barb wire fence to ring in the Christmas spirit. This was actually a very mellow session of sledding. No tubes were popped in the process and because we got a late start the hill didn't get as icy as it normally does so no running into the barbed wire fence yet!

behold, the GR

this is going to be interesting

oh starting to tip, lean james lean!!!

the result

Love you lots and hope you have a very Merry Christmas!!!

i'm free!!!

I am done with finals!!! If you look at my previous post you will understand my feelings of exhaustion and utter despair when it all hit. I'm probably just being overdramatic but I will never take 5 classes at one time again. For all of you who do it with out a problem, I don't want to hear about it, let me be a baby.

When I finished my last paper last night it was celebration time, I literally was jumping up and down yelling because I was so happy. This is how it went down...

(this is me)

The heavens opened and an angelic choir sang Vivaldi

We popped some bubbly

Some of my closest friends celebrated with me

There was dancing in the streets

"Krystal did it!!! She really did it!"

"We knew you could do it!"

I thought the party was over but nope...

"Ya'll are too sweet to me!"

"Thank you for being so supportive, I don't know what'd I'd do without you."

Okay, okay, I may be delusional but a girl can dream.

Back to reality...

This is actually what happened, Andrew can attest.

it was gorgeous but very cold...

I don't like cold

overall, our Bwaston experience was incredible and if you haven't noticed I've already picked up there accent. That's how the locals do it. Just joking, that wasn't very funny.

this is exactly how i feel right now, thank you finals

Andrew and I returned from Boston last night. For multiple reasons I did not want to come back: school, work, finals, you get the drift. But we absolutely loved it. As for now back to the same ol'grind. Pictures soon to come...
