i had so much fun coming up with a cute idea for wrapping the jewelry…thank you etsy! i did not make the tags or boxes, but did get a new stamp!
yes, dec. 1, gifts packaged and ready to be mailed…dang we were great this year!…
lollies I made this year, thanks to house of 3 for the idea…
we have two trees, one for the kids to decorate any which way, and one I get to decorate…it’s taken a lot of stress off of everyone’s creativity!
our family room…alex made the paper christmas tree all on her own…

This year, we started listening to Christmas music after Halloween. We enjoyed the jolly songs that took us through the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, and still, the anxiousness and build-up of Christmas day is always exciting and so very fleeting. The day flies by no matter how slow you mentally make it go!
This year, we opened a special present Christmas Eve morning, which seemed to lengthen the holiday. It was so exciting to surprise the girls with this gift! You’ll see pic’s and video…I’m not going to give it away just yet!
Doing crafts, decorating, and making my Christmas gifts were so much fun. In fact, out of character for us, we had gifts in boxes ready to ship Dec. 1st! Woo-hoo that was great. So, yes, we still have the Christmas cards addressed waiting for stamps to be bought, but hey, the most important happened first!
Enjoy all our fun pic’s, and head over to the Modern Vintage link if you want to see all the necklaces I made this holiday season!
