Our stockings are hung...

By our new chimney with care, in hopes that St. Nicholas soon will be there :) We have family coming in tomorrow AND we are actually hosting Christmas Day. Eeeeeek! I am SO excited for this first holiday in our house, to be with family and for all the fun because the girls excitement is at an all-time high. Between the advent calendar at our house, the calendar at my parents house, the elf, and our numeric Christmas countdown, the non-stop Christmas song requests by Anna (Santa Baby! is her favorite, LOL!) - every inch of our new house is Christmas-ified and it's amazing!

We lost a week with the stomach bug but we've made up for lost time over the last 10 days or so. We've decorated some more, done lots of wrapping, drove around looking at Christmas lights in the area, made a few nice donations, given out a few special gifts, and made our annual trip into NYC last weekend. The girls LOVED their first train too! There really is nothing like it - this time of year is just so special, for adults and kids alike.

Sharing some photos from our recent adventures and wishing you and yours, a beautiful, safe and joyful holiday!

Merry Christmas
