Late Christmas post is late  
Best tree topper ever!

Only on the 16th did I finally decorate my tree.

This year's actual tree topper.

I wanted to put cookies and a Christmas card in my BFF's mailbox, but the cookies didn't fit. The light was on in her kitchen, so I rang the door bell and gave her the cookies in person.

She was just making gingerbread people, so I got some too. :oD

And for Christmas I got earrings from her that she had made herself.

This year Christmas was less stressful, because we didn't celebrate 3 days in a row. Apparently there's actually something good about my sister being halfway around the world.

On the 24th I celebrated with my parents at my place. We skyped with my sister in Australia. While doing that, we opened the presents we got from her and she opened the ones she got from us. I got the Sailor Moon DVD box #3 and Futurama S5-7. So many DVDs, great!
I got candy from everyone, which is terrible. I mean, I love me some candy, but because I forgot to ask everyone not to give me candy, I now have enough to last until at least Easter.

Finally I have a My Little Pony of the new sort! \o/

On the 26th we celebrated with family friend at my mom's place. Unfortunately I didn't feel very Christmassy for some reason. Mom's food was great, the several rounds of Barricade were fun, I liked my presents (for example I got 180€ altogether), but overall it just didn't feel like Christmas.

Mom improvised the Christmas-tree decoration this year.
