The Classiest Christmas

Despite it being finals, this is the best time of year. I'll give you some reasons why:

Kenzie's Birthday

There isn't a person who loves fun or Christmas more than Kenzie. Well, maybe Buddy the Elf, but he hasn't responded to our party invitations. She turned 22 on Thursday which was conveniently our last day of classes, so we had a bunch of our friends over to celebrate before going out to Michiana's Largest Dance Club, a seriously classy establishment. Needless to say, all of that birthday bliss and Christmas cheer resulted in a pretty stellar night.

"Study Days"
Or shall I say, sit around, watch Friends, order Jimmy Johns, and go to the mall days. I mean, I just passed in two huge papers and my first exam isn't til Tuesday, so I think that one day of the aforementioned agenda is totally deserved. At least that's what I'm telling myself.

Snowy Runs
You know that I couldn't spend a day in which I literally had nothing to do and not run. My roommate* Kaitlin and I bundled up and went for a run down by the scenic St. Joe's River. We didn't think about the fact that the path would be completely covered in ice and snow, even though Notre Dame Ave. still isn't plowed...oh well. Despite the mildly treacherous conditions, the sun was out and and we had a glorious run. I even brought my camera with the intention of taking a good blog photo, but I was in the zone and totally failed. Rookie Blogger Ooops.

*There are five people that I will refer to as my roommate at any given time. We have three adjacent apartments so we don't all live together Per Se, but we have all lived together at one point or another. We've recently determined that our main goal in life  is to open a gym in Denver with a Sweet Green next door. Kaitlin and Maggie and I are getting our personal trainer certification next semester, so we'll be totally qualified.

Classy Christmas

Every year, the boys host a lovely party which has come to be the highlight of the Christmas season. Everyone puts on a classy Christmas outfit, the boys make hors d'oeuvres, and we celebrate the season in style. Last night was our last classy Christmas, so we went out with a bang. The boys bought wine,  Kenzie made peppermint bark, and Scott made a delicious artichoke dip. I think we're well on our way to becoming real people who host real parties. I mean, we still had to have a sing along to Pursuit of Happiness (the remix of course), but we're making progress.

Doesn't get much classier than Deegs in a Santa hat.
