It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

I love this time of year! The music, decorating, the first snow, the gatherings with family & friends, everything!! I have been busting my butt to get christmas decorations up in time for our housewarming party last week, I'll have to add to my collection at the end of the season when everything goes on sale!

These are the only pictures I took the entire day! At one point I'm sure there were around 45 people in our house so it was a little crazy!!

I got our Christmas cards out early this year, nice to have that off my plate! And I'm really happy how they turned out!
















We visited Santa this week and went to the tree lighting ceremony at our City Hall/Parks & Rec area. It was fun to do things with our community, hoping to start some great traditions with A!!

A was the same as previous years, no smiles but no tears, he was very good!

Santa came in on a fire truck and A was more excited about that then the man himself.

We started 'Elf on the Shelf' which I'm super excited about, definitely way more excited than A. We are starting out simple, don't want to over do it too early on! Alexander named our Elf, Cookie.

Happy holidays!
