Hello, my bucket list, friends! I’m going to be working hard to catch up with my blog posts today! In this post, I’m going to show you our outdoor light display this year! My favorite part of our light display is a bear that we recently got. I also love the snowman and the deer. Did you put up any outdoor decorations this year?

Hello, my bucket list, friends! This is just a quick post to show you some pictures of my family’s Christmas tree is year! We have been using an artificial tree for a while now, and honestly, I like it better than using a real tree. We have so many ornaments, and there are still some that I have not put on the tree yet. However, I still wanted to share some photos of this year’s tree!

Hello, my bucket list, friends! There are a lot of Christmas events happening right now, and on Saturday, I got to go to one of my favorites. There is a craft fair that happens every year, and I really like going to it. Last year, I got some soap that had toys in it. I was happy to see that this year, that seller was back at the fair. I got three soaps that had toys in them and one that comes with a toy on top of it. I also got a free gift bag at that booth. My other craft fair finds were a quail sticker and a painting. I had a fun time walking around the craft fair and seeing all the fun things that people were selling. After the craft fair, I went to a Safeway that is different from the one I usually go to . I was very happy when I saw a Barbie Advent calendar there. I was very excited to bring it home with me ! I have not opened it yet, but I will be sure to write about it when I do!

Hello, my bucket list friends it’s no secret that I love shopping, and lately, I’ve gotten to do a bunch of it! I’m almost done with my Christmas shopping and it feels really good to say that! Anyway I want to tell you about some of my latest shopping adventures including a trip to one of my favorite book stores so let’s get to it!
Local book store – On Friday, I got the chance to visit this interesting book store that sells both used and new books. I’m still working on my goal of reading 50 books this year, and I hope to accomplish it by reading short children’s books. At the book store, I got two Barbie books and one My Little Pony book. I was happy that I was able to get a few books about things that I enjoy.
Dollar Tree – I had been wanting to go to Dollar Tree to check out their Christmas items, and on Saturday, I did just that. I wasn’t able to go to my favorite location that has a really large selection. However, I was overall happy with the items I got at the smaller store. Right away, I saw the Christmas sweater activity pad that came with stickers. After I got that, I got other items in the Christmas section. those items were a cute snowman décor piece, two Christmas craft kits, two small Christmas teddy bears , and some window stickers that I saw at the last minute when I was about to pay. I also got some items that were not in the Christmas section. I was very excited when I saw these little blind bag animals and I was also excited when I found this large Barbie coloring book. I also got a Barbie toothbrush that comes with a toothbrush protector. It was a good trip to the Dollar Tree ! Oh, and I also got soap!
Breaktime shopping – I’ve done so much of this lately that I might just give myself a headache if I tried to say what I bought on what day. Instead, I will just tell you about some of the fun things that I have recently bought. One of my very favorite things that I got is a Squishmallows blanket. It is so soft and cozy! Some of my other favorite recent finds are press on nails that are Christmas themed , a light up snowman spinner toy, a small shopping cart with candy, a TY Beanie Boo, and some Christmas nail files. My work has so many great Christmas items, and I’ve had a lot of fun buying some of them!

Hello, my bucket list, friends ! It is time for a fun little blog post. This post is mainly about what I did yesterday, but there are some Christmastime highlights, including the ones I mentioned in the title above. The first highlight of the day was going to get Starbucks before going to work. The cup I got a Starbucks was the one with the trees on it. I decided to keep this cup and color it after work. There was one major difference about work on this day, and that was that I started work earlier than I had been. Work got busy at times, but it was a pretty good day overall. After work, I went home and started coloring my Starbucks cup. I got a bunch of different markers, and I made my cup very colorful. Later on that day I went to a family Christmas party. I was excited to see my family and play the White Elephant game. Another thing I was excited about was getting to decorate gingerbread houses. I brought my gingerbread Target store kit to build and decorate. I had a good time building the gingerbread store. I love the dog and shopping cart that came with the kit. I also enjoyed playing the white elephant game. That is one of my favorite games to play at Christmastime. I have a good amount of memories of playing that game, and now I have a new memory of playing it. It was good to spend time with family because I don’t get to see my family as often as I would like to. It was a good day. Christmas time is truly a special time of year.

Hello, my bucket list, friends! It is time for another blogmas post about an art project. I have only done one post about an art project for blogmas so far, so I decided to do another. I had a cute craft kit that I had got from Target that had three wooden snowflakes that you can paint. One thing that I really liked about this kit was that it came with two paint brushes and a good amount of paint colors. When it came time to paint the snowflakes, I didn’t have much of an idea of how I was going to paint the snowflakes. The first snowflakes I painted the first snowflake really simply. I only used two colors, and I did not do any fancy designs. With the other two snowflakes, I did dots on both. I love painting dots when I do art projects. I love the way all three snowflakes turned out. I wonder what art project I will do next.

Hello, my bucket list, friends! Last night, I went to one of my favorite local Christmastime events. I’ve gone to fantasy of lights many times. I have even attended their walk through event before. However, due to crowd sizes, I’ve decided that I like the drive-through better. Last night, after stopping at Panera Bread, my parents and I went to the fantasy of lights drive through. I’m glad I was able to get a ticket because they got bought quickly. At the event, I was reunited with my favorite light displays. Some of my favorites are the ice-skating bears, the dinosaurs, and the penguins. There was also something new this year. They had these beautiful flowers. I loved the new addition to the event. Also, they gave out these cool glasses that caused the lights to take fun shapes when you looked through them.I had a really great time, and I hope to go back next year!
