Month in Instagram: December

December has always been my favorite month by far! Not only do I celebrate my birthday, but also my darling mother's and older sister's. Then of course we celebrate the big man's birthday and on December 1st all bets are off and Christmas is officially allowed to be celebrated in every rhyme or reason way!

I'm never one to celebrate prematurely for any other big holiday, but come November 1 I'm well into my Christmas spirit ways! Here's how I spent the most jolly month of the year:

1. Saw Justin Timberlake for my sister's birthday in Vegas
