I love you, Monchichi!

The adorable box below was one of the gifts I had waiting for me under the tree this year. As soon as I saw who it was from, my sister and bro-in-law, I knew it would be something good! My sister is usually the shopper so I was very excited to open it. And I loved the box--it's so cute! I actually had a feeling it was something from Sephora.

Lesson learned: don't judge a gift by its packaging.....

Hahahaha, meet my newest friend and bridezilla, Mrs. Monchichi! Once my hair was long enough to go wigless, a guy I work with teased me that my hair made me look like a Monchichi. I was like, "What the heck is a Monchichi??" I google image searched it and lucky for him I didn't punch him! I thought it was pretty funny actually---and my hair did (or does!) look like that thanks to the really awkward grow out stage.

Anyway, I made the mistake of telling my family about it and as soon as I did, George and Kim were on a mission to find a Monchichi. Apparently they are hard to find! They found the perfect one on eBay though: the bride! Now all I need is the groom (which is out there somewhere!) and I'm set! Pretty funny George. I'll get you next year....

In other news, I got contacts today and I am amazed at how blind I was. Everything has so much more definition now! And street signs---I can read those again too. Awesome! Hopefully it makes driving at night easier.

Hope everyone is having a good week! I'm looking forward to some spring skiing on Saturday with Joe, Jackie and Gil. It was 52 at Timberline today! And hopefully on Sunday Sophie will be accepting visitors, specifically Auntie Katie!

Have a good weekend!
