| I cannot explain how much I enjoy Christmas lights. Thank you for doing this to your house. You win. |
I couldn't find it appropriate to continue my daily posts after what happened on December 14th.
Those families will be in my thoughts and heart over Christmas and probably forever.
I find this Christmas to be a very somber one- especially with what happened Christmas Eve morning in Webster New York. If it was not for my daughter I would have completely shut down. But luckily I am so blessed to have a little sweetheart whom I was able to create many wonderful memories with this Holiday season and I would like to just recap our Christmas 2012 through pictures....

 |
| We kept a roaring fire in the fireplace....smells so good... |
Christmas Eve turned out to be a day of one snafu after another but Christmas Day was WONDERFUL!!! Almost totally perfect-

Aww, i love of those Christmas pics, they are just fantastic!! So many great pics and wonderful things you do for Christmas. Seems like you have done so many wonderful things and had such a magical Christmas. Snow at Christmas is super too!
ReplyDeleteI also think that although there are such awful tragedies in the world like the loss of those children, those children wouldn't want the world to be sad, they would want boys and girls to celebrate the Christmasses that they can't.
Sounds like despite the somberness, you guys made it a magical and lovely christmas. Hope you enjoyed your time with Santa.
Also sweet that Joel bought your all that was on your make shift Christmas list:-)
It was a wonderful holiday, and having a child makes everything so much more fun!!! I wouldn't have done most of these things if we didn't have her. It's fun to show her these new traditions- I hope she grows up loving the holidays as much as I do!
DeleteOMG I Love your blog! And thank you for featuring LULU & LULA PHOTOGRAPHY!

Thanks Ania!! Everyone loves your photos!!!!
DeleteSince you have a little one close to zs age I think you will like my blog as I try to do most of my things with my little girl. I want to take advantage of this time where she's attached to me, I know the day will come when she wants to hang out with her friends instead.
