home for the holidays, for now. | girl meets life.

Well, here we are again ? smack dab in the middle of the holiday season. I?m still in Pennsylvania for my first of two holiday visits here, and it?s been quite lovely.

Our family tradition has always been to stay home the day after Thanksgiving to decorate the house for Christmas. I think it stemmed from my mom not wanting to go shopping on Black Friday. Luckily for her, it seems to have worked for over 25 years.

We?re a fake tree family, in case you were wondering?

?and a fake fire family too ;)

Our trip to the mall was reserved for yesterday, where mom, Katie and I enjoyed the last of the Twilight movies.

(I know, I cried because it?s the end too.)

And for a family post-post-post Thanksgiving dinner: sushi, naturally.

As usual, my fortune left me more confused than enlightened. But hey, maybe it could speak to someone??

One of the things I?ve definitely loved the most about this visit home is getting to spend a ton of time with my sister, Katie. We?ve gotten so much closer as we get older, and it?s exciting to see where each of our lives are taking us. Isn?t she a beaut??

I?ll be here for another day before heading back to New York. I must say that my newly Christmas-spirited self is pretty excited to go back to the holiday-filled city..!

Do you go home at all for the holidays? How far do you live from your family?
