Its Christmas, y’all. Like right now. I won’t lie to you, I do not have the best Christmas spirit this year, but I can fake it til I make it for my Christmas-loving offspring who lives and dies for tinsel and gingerbread. I will paint red nails and play Bing Crosby even if I kinda don’t want to this year…and it will be good.
So we’ve been doing lots of Christmas things; tootling around to special Christmas things, sleigh riding, shopping, ordering hot cocoa, visiting the Big Guy, eating roasted chestnuts (which are horrid, by the way), and addressing cards til we have carpel tunnel…oh wait, that last one’s just me.

I'm SO right there with ya lady. I usually love and adore everything about Christmas, but this season has been so full, busy, and downright exhausting. I'm actually looking forward to Christmas being over at this point, and that is very unusual for me. Hoping I can snap out of it:)
these are sweet sweet sweet! in more than one way.
What a spectacular Santa Claus!
Such a beautiful family! Faking it is the best we can do some days, and that's ok. Enjoy this last week of Christmas festivities!

Oh, I baked shortbread today. If I had magic powers I would send you some right now, right across the Atlantic! I have a little Christmas spirit so I'll send that along too. I just wish this season wouldn't sneak up like it has done again… maybe I should start the preps earlier… anyhows, enjoy your weekend 🙂
Love to picture of Vera. She's getting so big!
You are so awesome, I am in awe of what you have done so far more then most of us. You keep it up and i will say a prayer for you the spirit will come sweet gal. Once again I can't stand the cuteness of that little my teeth hurt from her sweetness!
XO Merry Christmas!
Oh the coffee in the bottle is the best. Not very spirited around here, just waiting for deployment to be over. Next year will be fun.
