First things first, the Happiest of Birthdays to [livejournal.com profile] cygny, an old friend over LJ. Hope you had a fantastic day with your boys :-) *kisses*

I had a busy week and if I won't go into details about work because it drove me insane and I'm glad it's behind me, I want to squee a little over the production of West Side Story that I saw on Tuesday night with my "girls", ie Cookie, Mom and Sis. I'd never seen the musical on stage, only the film, and it was absolutely wonderful! Such talent, such energy, wow. Though the whole cast was fantastic, my favourite was the actress playing Anita, she was fabulous ♥ I'm so glad we got the opportunity to see it! And en famille, which is always a plus :-) Also, it was my first time at the Théâtre du Châtelet and that was another hit, the theater is gorgeous! Case in point, a couple of pictures behind the cut ).

All in all, a wonderful night was had :-)

Another wonderful thing is that as of last night I'm on Christmas holidays! I'm off work for two glorious weeks ♥ Work has been so hectic the past weeks (couple of months, even) and the flu tired me a lot last week so I was even more impatient than usual to be off work. I was counting the days!

Today wasn't lazy, though, as I was busy and efficient. I ran some errands this morning and in the afternoon Cookie joined me for some last Christmas shopping. Everything went smoothly and we got the last presents we needed without sweat or tears. We've just finished packing them and put those last presents under the Christmas tree, so we're all set for Monday - well, we'll have to move everything to my sister's house but still. The plan for tonight is to write our cards (meaning they'll arrive after Christmas but as I always say, I do my cards the French way, meaning that - technically - I have all of January to send them) in front of The Muppet's Christmas Carol #Cozy Cookie is ahead of me, I'd better finish this entry soon, you guys, and get started ;-)

Before leaving though, a couple of pictures of our Christmas tree, because I love sharing pics of Christmas decorations :-) )

Oh, and tomorrow? Tomorrow we're seeing The Hobbit again! Third time for me, yaaay ♥
