Christmas Festivities

So Christmas is here & it has been such a fun time keeping up with our bucket list & just enjoying this special time of the year. I can't believe we are 1 day away from the big day. It always seems to come & go so quickly, I wish we could just pause time for a moment & really take it all in. There is something so magical about Christmas music playing all day, people being extra nice, cozy PJ's, lights everywhere, the Christmas tree & especially sharing the love of Jesus with everyone you know.

Best Gift EVER

 We've been checking our Christmas bucket list on the daily & we've managed to be pretty good, only a few things will probably not make it on the agenda, but so far our favorites have been making DIY ornaments, The Grinch, hot chocolate, baking cupcakes & cookies, looking at the lights around our neighborhood, seeing Santa & dressing up just because it's Christmas time.

foot print Snowman & hand print Santa <3 These are so cute & easy to make: 1.preheat oven to 300F 2. Mix 2 cups of flour, 3/4 cup of water & half a cup of salt 3. Knead for 10 minutes 4. Roll out onto floured surface and cut out shapes using a knife (make sure to poke a hole for hanging) 5. Place on cookie sheet and bake for 1 hour 6. Let cool for a day & paint as desired!

Sugar cookies are my fave

 The next few pics are from our Holiday cards! Let's just say it's definitely getting harder to take pictures of little miss plus it was almost bedtime, low & behold I still love them and will always remember how hard we tried to make her cooperate & smile.
