It's so cute.
It's a winter wonderland.
Hi guys!
It's Nicole and welcome back to my channel.
Happy Vlogmas Day 12!
Almost halfway done with Vlogmas 2025.
Oh my gosh.
But as you guys can see, I am currently home!
Best feeling ever.
Okay, so we got in last night, literally at like 2 in the morning.
I got the best sleep of my life.
It's been a long week.
It's been a long month of December so far actually.
And so I passed out in my bed.
And I mean, like, look how comfy this is.
Also, it's been the perfect morning.
Sadie's hanging out in my room.
Hi, baby.
She had an appointment at the vet today.
She's doing well, huh?
But I'm currently getting ready for the day.
I brought all of my stuff on the floor and I'm just gonna get ready right here.
But exciting plans.
Today, my family and I are going to the Grove.
I'm just having a very wholesome and family night.
I'm so freaking excited.
So happy Vlogmas Day 12, everyone.
And here's my outfit.
I'm on this adorable sweater from BS pink, and then some jeans from Hollister.
And then my parents just got me some new Alex for my birthday.
So I'm gonna wear those out.
For the first time tonight They've come bearing gifts, Guys.
I'm so happy.
The house is gonna be full for the next few days, but Christian's got me Starbucks.
I got a matcha.
And the festive cup is so cute.
Cheers, everyone.
Look at this baby.
She's getting old, guys.
I love you.
Ooh, new shoes!
Christian is yelling Bible verses right now.
No, but the way he says it is like he's Goliath.
I mean, I'm obsessed with those shoes.
These are so cute.
See?
They're so wintry and perfect.
And we're on the way to the Grove.
Christian, wait.
I'm taking a few more bites.
I'm eating some poke and I'm editing.
Okay, okay.
Oh my god, he's so impatient, guys.
Share with the camera.
Yeah, for real.
Can the camera eat first at least?
Oh yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Okay, but we got the whole squad in the car.
Mom and dad in the front.
Sky in the back.
Wait, show them your nails.
Guys, Sky does her own nails.
And are you kidding me?
Wait, hold on.
Let it focus.
Tis the season.
Tis the season.
These are so good.
You're so talented.
Applause, applause, applause.
And then Christian and Sadie in the back.
Yay, we're bringing Sadie.
Oh, she's taking that.
But she has her sweater on.
He said no.
Yeah, do Christian's nails.
I got to paint Colin's nails though.
Wait, that's so funny.
Oh, oh, oh, help.
Help me.
It's going to be an hour car ride, but the Grove is going to be so fun.
If you didn't know, it's like one of the most Christmassy places in LA.
There's a bunch of shops and restaurants.
Beautiful Christmas tree and, the most important thing, we're gonna be taking Santa pictures and if you guys remember from last year's vlogmas, Dad was like the star of the show.
See if they actually used it.
I know they were like, can we use this photo?
Oh my gosh, bring this man to the front.
Bring this man to the front.
Him and Santa looked genuinely the happiest they've ever been.
Are you excited to see your best friend Papalino?
Yes.
Santa's gonna be like here.
I want you to take this suit for next year.
Yeah, so we're gonna get some updated photos.
Why is Santa Asian?
Why does he have an accent?
What do you want for Christmas?
I think it's supposed to snow at like 6 and 8.
Oh, yes, I did see that.
Oh, it's gonna be so cute.
I'm gonna do some shopping too.
Oh, and they have the two-story brandy now.
Did you see that?
No, I don't think I've ever shot that brandy before.
Oh, okay, yeah.
You have clothes though.
I bought you some brandy, baby.
Oh, okay, baby.
Okay.
Look at this place Mama's holding Sadie.

And we got an ornament with dad and Sadie.
So magical.
It's going to look even prettier at nighttime.
It is now time to shop.
Guys, there's a jelly cat pop-up, so I think I'm going to go there first.
Ah, look at this pop-up.
Look at Bartholomew the bear.

Damn.
Someone wants...
Make me one, son.
Thanks, son.
Feed it to her, son.
Dad is mesmerized by the chocolate.
That is actually pretty cool.
That is the most perfect Christmas tree I've ever seen.
When I have a bigger place, this is going to be my tree.
We're in H&M.
This is dad's new store.
He got one sweater that looked really good.
So he's like, I think H&M is my store.
What?
What?
Go Sadie.
Go mama.
Go Sadie.
Go.
Okay, show the vlog.
Two more sweaters.
Look at that.
Vibes are high.
It's now nighttime, so all the lights are shining.
Look, a trolley.
Oh, cute.
I don't think there's room now.
A white travel.
And a caramel patty.
Mama's getting some chocolate from Steve's Candy.
Oh, we could try from there.
This is a pretty controversial one.
I like it.
Controversial?
Yeah, because it's too sweet.
Give us a controversial one.
We're going to try it right now.
I know.
I like it.
Yeah?
I ate some of the paper.
I appreciate you.
Time to go to pretty.
I love this part of the group.
So pretty.
Ah, look at that.
Two-story brandy.
Didn't you come to this one last year?
Yeah, I definitely did.
But they switched locations.
It used to be across the street.
OMG.
So cute.
Wow.
This is cute.
Camo moment.
I've been seeing these makeup bags everywhere online.
Cutie pink.
Wow, guys.
This place is big.
This is still just the first floor.
That is criminal.
Security.
Security.
Second floor.
Here we come.
Cute.
Update, I couldn't find anything.
There's literally so much in this store, but Yeah, nothing for me.
Thank you.
We're at the brandy cafe right now and I ordered one of their Nutella sandwiches.
I heard their pizza is really good, but since we just am early enough,
Great taste test!
Oh wow, that's oozing Is it good?
Is it warm?
I like the powder sugar.
What kind of bread is that?
I don't know.
Ciabatta?
I'm trying to figure that out.
Ciabatta.
Ciabatta's thicker.
I think it could be focaccia.
Oh, focaccia?
I also got a matcha.
Yes, this is my second matcha of the day, but I really wanted to try brandy matcha.
I forgot about that.
Yeah, it's like only a few hours later.
Look how cute.
Cheers.
It's dark.
Pretty good.
It's because my Starbucks one, I had brown sugar puffs.
But it's still yummy.
OMG.
So beautiful.
She'll make sure.
You want to feel safe?
Bye-bye, Grove.
You've been fun.
Hi, vlog.
Okay guys, it's actually a lot later.
It's past midnight already.
When we got home from the Grove, we ended up just all changing into our PJs and watching some movies.
We watched the Jonas Brothers Christmas special on Disney+.
It was actually so good.
Like super, super cute.
I think my mom ended up crying because kevin jonas was singing.
I don't know, but it's just very wholesome and a great family movie.
And then we're also watching some key and peel videos.
Christian loves those and we always crack up when we watch them.
But it was just such a great family time today and i could not be more grateful to be home, which is something i want to talk about, because if you guys watch yesterday's vlog, you guys know i had a a little bit of a breakdown.
I think Vlogmas was just starting to hit, which honestly valid, because I think in past years I would start to feel those emotions a lot earlier in the month.
But the fact that we went like 11, 12 days already, doing pretty good.
I'm pretty proud.
But I think my life back at school you know my schedule was just so busy with class and the dance and then Vlogmas on top of it.
Yesterday I was definitely feeling it when I had to wake up early and I was running on like no sleep.
But this was like the perfect next day, if that makes sense.
Just because I'm back at home with my family, I got a lot better sleep and I honestly just feel healed.
Like seriously, what a perfect day.
The Grove was so nice.
It also wasn't as crowded as I thought it was going to be, because usually during Christmas time it's packed and you can barely move during like the main street.
But we got to go to all of the places we wanted to.
Santa pictures were cute.
I did a little bit of shopping and got a new jelly cat.
I'm actually obsessed.
And this is the first stuffed animal that I'm bringing to this new house, which is so cute.
And it matches my room aesthetic.
Perfect.
But I can't get over her.
Oh, we need a name comment down below what we should name my snowsuit bunny.
But yeah overall, i am just so happy to be home and the fact that i get to spend the next few days, like almost a week at home.
It's such a blessing, and so i can't wait to vlog more and do some home content.
Also, just being with my family that makes me the happiest of all.
But, with that being said, i'm gonna edit this video and get another good night's sleep.
I hope you guys are doing well.
For those of you who are going through finals week right now, good luck.
You got this thing.
You're almost to winter break.
You can do it.
But if you guys stayed till the end of this video, comment down below.
Let's do the bunny emoji.
I think that's very fitting.
But thank you guys so much for watching.
I hope you enjoyed.
