Hey!

Wow. I haven't posted in over a month! I feel so bad! I went away this Christmas, to the same place I went in the summer!
Here are some clues if you want to guess where it is...
1. IT WAS SUNNY EVERY DAY! which is a big change to grey old england.
2. We went shopping a lot, on 3rd street (big hint!?)
3. Lots of Mexican food! (another big hint!)
4. Free re-fills on drinks, everywhere:O me and my brother were shocked.
5. We got there by plane!

These are some pretty big hints, but I feel i owe them to you!

So yes, I have a lot to review! but my new years resolution is to blog 3/4 times a week (anymore, and i'm overwhelmed with schoolwork and social stuff and this and everything and my life goes *bam* and implodes.)

love,

Lily x

My Favourite Things No. 9: Elf

As a baby, Buddy climbed into Santa's sack on Christmas Eve and left the orphanage he had lived. Of course, Santa was totally unaware of this so it was a bit of a shock at the North Pole, when a baby crawled out the sack! There, Papa Elf volunteers to take care him and Buddy grows up believing that he is elf-not human. Eventually, Papa Elf tells him the truth about his family. So, desperate to find them, Buddy set's off to New York City where his dad works. Having only lived in the elf world, Buddy is fascinated by the bright lights, bustling crowds...and he certainly didn't expect his dad's reaction to him. And he certainly didnt expect what happens...

Will Ferrell is amazing. fact.
Buddy is so lovable and innocent! The movie is just so adorable, it's seriously cute. There's a great message of love, and it's a great christmas film for everyone (it's like a family tradition to watch this over and over again at christmas!)
