These two babes hit the town, so Brent and I babysit!Even after showing off that she could, in fact, be nominated for an Oscar for lead actress in a drama, Sofia continued to win our hearts:
As did these two furballs:

i made it onto the tree, peeps.

We slept over with Brent’s family and had a wonderful Christmas Eve with their close family friends. The tree in their home was so pretty. Tooks us hours to unwrap all the presents — was so fun to get to all be together. Have heard of Brent’s mom’s famous cinnamon rolls on Christmas morning and was excited to be able to try one….it lived up to the hype (drooling as I type).After breakfast and a midday nap, we ventured north to M&DS for Christmas dinner and one cute little elf:

Brent got me snowshoes for Christmas! woo!

It was a great day spent with the best peeps. Merry Christmas!

This is the third Christmas in my home. I love decorating my little space and filling it with holiday cheer and traditions! One of my favorite traditions is having my nieces sleepover. We have dinner, paint nails, watch movies and hang out. Second only to our trampoline summer sleepover tradit, this is one of my favorite nights of the year!

2016:

Didn’t get a tree or have many presents. I was kind of in shambles last Christmas — grateful these girls love me unconditionally…even when I’m a basket case.

2017:

Feeling back to my festive self this year — even maybe making a little up for las year.

Two new additions to this year’s festivities: my babe and baby bear.

I am so, so grateful for these moments. Love these souls more than they know.
