they aren’t?! wow, Derpy, those are some realistic-looking decorations! :f-please:

"Yeah....I twied to eat one last year..."

:D Cute pictures Kaderin and Derpy! I hope you two continue to do more fun adventures and things. ^-^
:D Very cute wizarding Derpy!

"Wheeeee! Come on!"

oh dear, i hope you didn't swallow it Derpy!

and wow. is that a log cave? you ran inside it so fearlessly!

"It was open at the top. More like a twench. It was fun!"

Unfortunately, images from Google Photos don't always work when linked like that.

Lovely! :] Always wanted more blue hair myself. I looks nice on you loveheart!

My hair picture sharing as well! ^-^

"Pwetty hair!" Derpy waves at the sheepie...

"I got a pin!"

:D Hey! Great pin Derpy! Way to go for helping the trees too!


My (old as hell, fake electric) tree now. ^-^


And the choo-choo. :D

Oooohhhh!!!

Seeing that choo choo makes me want to have a tree again. ;u;

Awh! <x] Thanks! That's the train I mentioned earlier this year I think. :D In like, a discussion about traditions. <x} Or whatever??

Found a couple of previous Christmas pictures with my brother! :D
It's our Christmas card pic and Grumpy Christmas card pic. x} That we never used for Christmas cards! x'D This is how I look in comparison to him.

"Oooohhhhh! Can I ride the choo-choo?"

You and your brother totally look related. XD

It looks like you had a great Christmas with him, Merskelly!

:D

And the tree... Gorgeous!!

:D Sure you can Derpy! The choo-choo doesn't make any sounds other than it's chuggin and squeaks though. ^-^ So you'll have to whistle for it! :D

That's because we are! <x'D Hahaha! Hard for me to believe I'm actually the older sibling. <x'} He's adorable and sweet, like a big ol' St. Bernard dog. :] But he's got the demeanor of a cat, pretending he's too cool most of the time. >u>
A lot of people say I look like my mom the most, and my brother looks like me and a bit like my dad, but body-wise, he's EXACTLY like our grandfather, o_o; down to his stride and height and posture...and neither of us have met our grandfather. He died years before even I was born. :] Genetics are fascinating. I have no idea how we both ended up being total geeky dorks, <x'D when our mom was a jock and our dad was a jack-of-all-trades. hehe.

We had a nice Christmas. :] That was our last real tree we got at our old house. I remember cleaning up the mess of needles all over the place. O_O;
Thank you! -U- Thank you! Decorated by yours truly.~ Thank you.

Jacks-of-all-trades are just nerds with good presentation, if you ask me. :P

>U> They're honestly the Macgyvers of the nerd world. x'D Haha.

Me, I'm just a flippin' video game addicted goof with an english and writing brain, and a tendency to also do the arty arts from time to time.
Meanwhile my brother is a bit of a weeb, loves gaming and making music, and spends his brain time crafting things and doing science stuff no one asked for. x'D

"Mama made me a new skirt!"
Derpy gives a little twirl.

oooh, very festive skirt!

Finished making my mom's Christmas present. :}
It's a Gryffindor wreath!




And look! It lights up! :D

That wreath turned out amazing and I want to track down some blue and bronze stuff (the bronze will be hard to find actually) for a Ravenclaw wreath now!

Very nice work, Merskelly!

^U^ Thank you! I made it a point to shape it so it looks like a lion's mane with ears. :D
<:D Ooh! I wanna see a Ravenclaw wreath as well! ^-^

Consider using bronze-ish Rub'n'Buff?

Hrm. Wonder if a Slytherin wreath would be too boring.

It could work for minor wreath add-ins, but I haven't found any reviews saying it can be used on fabric and most floral decor is generally foam and fabric, not metal and wood.

I'd probably have to gather blue from summer/fall decor and bronze (if I'm lucky) from fall decor. Or just accept the tragic color change from the movies and do blue and silver instead.
Michael's and Hobby Lobby generally have more floral decor than we do at JoAnn, so I'd probably have to check those stores more frequently to track them down.

that's an adorable skirt, Kad! and a beautiful wreath, Mers! :f-wants:

edit: speaking of crafting, this is the quote i got when i posted this post:

I used to be a huge Inuyasha nerd at one point in my life..

While going through my plushies I found my Kagome doll I loved dearly..


I also have a picture of my Peter Rabbit plushie that I take with me absolutely everywhere. Like... literally, everywhere. He stays in my bag and sometimes I hold him when I get nervous.

I am a huge Beatrix Potter fan,
I have a collection of all of her stories too.
I'll share a picture of the book tomorrow..
I'm supposed to be sleeping ;w;

"Im Hawwy Potter!" Derpy giggles.

Here's a better more recent picture of me and my brother. -u-
It was taken last year I think. :/
We went to Solvang and had breakfast with our dad for my brother's birthday...well for both our birthdays. ^-^; Since they're only a month apart...days actually!
We had a delicious breakfast there. I look a little full there, but it was cause I wanted to bundle up in the cold early morning, as I have no meat on my bones. <x}
The resemblance here is much easier to see I'm sure! o_o;
I just like that he's genuinely smiling here. <:) <3 It's hard to get him to do that for a picture..

Man, Solvang has really good stuff.

;n; They do..
I'd really love to work there at a hotel or the cool bookstore they have there...or like, y'know in a souvenir shop. <x]

I meant to post this yesterday,
But I didn't get around to it...

My first selfie as a 25 year old!

Looking good. I like your shirt.

"Cute bunny fwiend!"

Thanks, friends!!

My Peter Rabbit goes with me everywhere. :)

:f-heart:
my day is blessed now

Biomecha, you look so regal! :O

I actually really like the blurriness of the camera.
It kinda makes me think of the "vaseline on the lens" joke that people make :P
But I really like that effect!
