Christmas Eve

Its been a busy week for us!  Cooking, sewing, giving, crafting, and lots of celebrating.  Merry Christmas!

Days/Nights of Christmas Part 5

This week we have played new games, seen our paperwhites come and go, brought new greenery into the house, admired 1,000's of lights, baked, enjoyed an amazing Nutcracker performance. We are so grateful for each of our days and nights through this holiday season. They are each so different yet filled with much excitement and anticipation, yes, much anticipation from us all!
