All the best in 2014!

Well Christmas time came and went and here I am a few weeks late posting holiday pics! The boys had a great time, opening presents, making cookies.  I think I enjoyed the time more than usual as I had a week off work and got to sleep in every day until 8:30. IT. WAS. HEAVEN!
Now I'm back to the grind, which is also ok because I really do like my job and the people I work with.
Here's a reflection on our holidays, hope yours were just as sweet. I just realized we didn't get a pic of the boys with Grandma, Sorry Grandma, we will do that very soon!

Cade concentrating very much on the paint cookies task

making the infamous "paint cookies" that my mom made with us as kids

I took this pic late so here is our droopy tree

Our version of the Elf on the Shelf (about a 4th of the cost) lol

My fav ornament from Adrienne

Home for the Holidays

I love the holidays, who doesn't?

Family, friends, food, presents.

I love it also because I get to decorate!!!

At the end of each holiday season I make on large shopping haul at 50% off.

So the next year when I get out my loot its like opening presents with all my

finds from the previous years shopping trip!

Holiday Tree all lit up:

Find out how to take twinkle tree photos here: twinkle tree



 

Cade's Xmas countdown :

 

Front entry holiday decor:

Something I found on pinterest that I printed and framed.

 

 Each year at daycare they make a photo ornament that I hang on Santa:

 

 

Chalkboard, I can never get my handwriting very good on the board:

Front of home decor. I love red brick and pinecones:
