What a month! I was set on being organized this year so this month could be as relaxing as possible. It certainly took a lot of the last minute pressure off, that is for sure... exactly what I was aiming for!
We really ENJOYED the moments this year. We stayed home and just soaked it in... Trimming the tree, baking, family nights of Christmas movies sipping our signature hot chocolate and Bailys... it was a lot of sweet times this year. We loved the preschool Christmas shows, ice skating in Old Town, visiting Santa (mama jumped in the group shot this year as Logan wanted nothing to do with this old guy), and spontaneously jumping in the car to drive and discover the lit houses... This is the type of month it was.
And I hosted Christmas this year. I mean, I was a detail planning, cooking, baking, decorating, surprising fool. This included a visit from Auntie Tay Tay, Uncle Steve, and Keaton for the 23rd and 24th (complete with a Mexican extraveganza on Christmas Eve) and all of Morgan's family for Christmas day. It was a lot of fun cooking the dinner, making homemade cheesecake and planning all the details...name cards, homemade wine charms and family videos dubbed to DVD's as a big christmas surprise. It it was a special christmas, and so fun. I loved every moment and look forward to this amazing time of year next December!!
