It's a week before the concert and Rose, Alice and I are out christmas shopping, doing the grocery shopping for christmas dinner and regular shopping, plus making sure everyone has everything when they come.

Then we are going to get the rest of everything we need for the concert and Rose rented a huge u haul to put everything in. All I could do was laugh at her when she pulled up to the apartment building that morning.

"I am so glad the boys are not here Rose. You would be so picked on right now." She just shrugged her shoulders.

"You guys ready to get this long day of shopping done or what?" Alice and I looked at each other and smiled really big. "HELL YEAH!" We both say at the same time and we started laughing.

We went to Lowe's first to get supplies then we went to walmart and saw all the christmas decorations and lights. Everything Christmas. We all looked at each other and just grinned luckily we had 3 carts because we went nuts. We had to grab more carts. Forgive me for this is my first christmas with a large family and friends and I was going all out.

We got all the shopping and dropped the stuff at the school that had to go there and went to the apartment and unloaded the truck and we went with Rose to take the truck and went back to my apartment. Rose made some peppermint stick drinks and they were really good.

I turned on the music and we dug into the bags with the christmas decorations and lights and started decorating my apartment more and singing. The boys were off somewhere for the night and us girls were having a sleepover here at the apartment. We had made plans to do all the rest of the christmas shopping and picked the day which was today and the boys would go together for the night and us girl would have a sleepover and get the stuff for christmas dinner while we were at it.

"Well I got all the costumes made and bought for the concert. All we got to do is get help with the finishing of building the props." Alice told us.

"On it!" Rose got on her phone. I looked at Rose confused then at Alice and she just shrugged her shoulders.

"The boys are heading over there now. They had nothing better to do. Hey I got an idea." Rose says.

"Oh no, Rose that's scary when you get an idea." Alice says. "Oh come on Alice it's not that bad. Besides it be fun since we already finished decorating all the apartments and studio and we have all these lights left plus we bought all these outdoor decorations." A smile grew on my face.

"Can we really?" I asked. "Yeah, Why not! We got the fire escape ladder and plus the roof." I did a happy dance and started squealing. "I take it makes you happy?" Rose asked. "Very much so."

After we strung lights along the fire escape and ladder we went to the roof and started hooking lights together and hung them off each corner of the building. Alice went back to the store and you could've sworn she bought the whole store out of lights and more outdoor decorations.

She even bought color icicles to hang and window light up decorations. "Never send Alice shopping." Rose says. I just laughed.

We were finally done and collapsed on the couch. "Pizza for dinner?" I asked them.

"Sounds good!" Rose and Alice said at the same time. We finally settle in and put in a movie and some more drinks and ate our pizza.

Later that night I woke up to a noise and I open my eyes and I noticed I fell asleep on the couch.

I looked around and Alice was on the other end of the couch and on the other couch was Rose sleeping.

Then I kept hear crashing noises from upstairs. Rose open her eyes and looked at me. "You heard that too?" I whispered to her.
