I didn\u2019t see Santa or any reindeer, just a nice blanket of snow to make them feel at home.<\/p>\n<p>I woke up early on Christmas morning, my stocking was full of candy and there were gifts under the tree with my name on them. I got a new outfit, earrings, a Fancy Frost N Glaze Lalaloopsy doll, art supplies and a new outfit for my American Girl doll. I played with my new toys and spent time with my parents for the rest of Christmas day. On boxing day we packed up the car and headed home.<\/p>\n<p>When I got back home I arranged a time for Lydia to come over so we could exchange gifts.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5503\/11811694863_fb50d9a6a2.jpg\" alt=\" \" \/><br \/>\nShe said I could open mine first.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7320\/11811868404_e19961db4a.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\nFrom the first peek I could see that it was pink!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7408\/11811705833_22388cf1cb.jpg\" alt=\"&lt;img src=\" \/><br \/>\nI love the Hello Kitty lunchbox Lydia gave me!

We spent the rest of the afternoon playing. I wanted Lydia to stay overnight, but when we asked our parents said \u201cnot today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A few days later I arrived at Lydia\u2019s ready to spend the night. We played in the snow for a long time working on a giant snow fort. When we both got too cold to stay out any longer we went inside for hot cocoa. Just after dinner we decided to change into our pajamas.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2834\/11811426855_1370996af0.jpg\" alt=\" \" \/><br \/>\nAfter playing with our dolls I had the idea to style Lydia\u2019s hair. She agreed and said I could do anything that I wanted! I put it up in pigtails and used pink hair ties to match the Piglets on her pajamas.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2837\/11811437445_dbc70a8087.jpg\" alt=\" \" \/><br \/>\nIt turned out so well that we decided we should pose for a picture.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7325\/11812160626_a4e7a7d3d9.jpg\" alt=\" \" \/><br \/>\nAfter I finished with Lydia\u2019s hair it was starting to get late, so we pulled the quilt off her bed and snuggled up with our stuffed animals to watch a movie before bed. We planned to stay up all night talking but when the movie was done Lydia\u2019s parents said it was \u201clights out,\u201d we stayed up talking in the dark for awhile but we were both really tired so we didn\u2019t last long. I don\u2019t remember it but the next morning Lydia said that I fell asleep right in the middle of a story! In the morning my parents picked me up, I was so tired that I took a nap that afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>My winter break was awesome. I saw my grandparents, spent time with my best friend, slept in late almost every day and got fun presents. Even though I had a lot of fun, at the end I was almost ready to go back to school.<\/p>\n<p>Did you have a long winter break?
