Happy New Year people of the Web (+ my mom, who does not really qualify to be a people of the Web...I know, this is so sad... Maybe 2014 will be a digital revelation for her).

Anyway, we would like to apologize for being too busy (or lazy?!... Let's say busy, it's better for our karma) to post anything since 2013 (it sounds like it's been a year but really it was only a few months... So please don't be that offended). Let's blame the baby - taking care of a 1 year-old is just too demanding. 

Don't worry, 2014 is a new year (duh!) - we'll try to be more committed to this blog (the baby will eventually figure out how to take care of herself right? This is a joke people - don't call social services just yet. Jeez you left your sense of humor in 2013?...).

I have always loved writing - but never had the self-discipline and motivation to write stuff on an on-going basis. I had loads of diaries when I was younger (Dear Youth, I miss you. Come back please.), but they all ended as they started ("Dear Diary, today was the first day at school. It was pretty cool." THE END). If someone reads them today, they might think 1) "God, this girl dropped school only after her first day... What a shame" or 2) "Damn, she must have a pretty boring life. AND she thinks school is cool." 

Enough about my cool days at school - back to our blog.

Being in the middle of a post-Holidays depression (no more presents to open, no more "Jingle Bells", no more Rudolf, no more Santa - well actually there is this old fat bearded man wandering in our neighborhood, I'm pretty sure it's Him... You can't blame the man for moving to New York - I mean, seriously, the North Pole?... Must be pretty depressing once all the Elves are off). Even with Santa moving to Brooklyn, this period is always super sad and cheerless. So we decided to post a few photos of our Christmas decorations - before we take everything down (who am I kidding, everything will still be around in March. Lazy?!! NO! Christmas enthusiasts! We're the lost cousins of Buddy the Elf. If you just asked yourself "Buddy who?!", I can't do anything for you... This is so sad).

Most of the decorations are from Target (oh Target what would we do without you?!). We tried to create 2 different ambiances: Winter Wonderland in the dining room for a chic and sophisticated look (lots of white, snow, silver and sparkling stuff) and Cabin in the Woods in the living room for a cozy feel (red, green, gold, wood and pine).

Hope this will inspire you (well, for next year... We do not have the best timing, do we?!...).

Oh and if you still don't know who Buddy the Elf is please, pleeeeease watch ELF (you'll do yourself a huge favor).


Hope 2014 will be an awesome year for everyone. See you in 2015 (kidding! We'll try to post something before :P).
