"It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!"

This weekend so far was my favorite, but then again I only have one other really good weekend to compare it to.

Nickayla had found a Christmas lighting on Saturday to go to, and I'm so glad we went. Not because it was freezing and there were so many people you could barely move, but because CHRISTMAS! I finally got that feeling that Christmas is coming soon and it made me so happy. Besides that though, it was beautiful! The shopping street lit up with lights and there were various events going on for the occasion as well. 

We watched one fashion show (and we all refrained from jumping on stage ourselves) and we planned on watching some of the celebrity and music presenters but that never ended up happening because dinner took so long. I even missed the fireworks that started the lighting because I was too busy paying, but that's okay because later on we ran into fireworks that made up for it. It's almost confusing seeing all these fireworks going of for the past couple weeks because I'm only used to seeing them in the summer! I don't mind them though, they are exciting. Anyways, we also walked around and shopped a bit before dinner and the lights. I have never seen so many H&M's or other stores in one small little area. Pretty sure I came across at least three H&M's in just the one street we walked.

We also went to Hamley's, which is a toy store similar to FAO Schwarz in NYC. It was fun just to walk around and see what was going on!

Sunday was such a good and very needed day. Nickayla had also mentioned about a church they have here called Hillsong that she had found in New York . I felt at home being able to go and it feels so good to know that I have a church to go to for when I'm here or I'm in NYC or anywhere else that they have one! I knew God would help me find somewhere I could be with him.

And shoutout to my super handsome and awesome boyfriend on his 19th birthday! You're pretty cool and I kinda like you...

Okay, okay, I love you!
