PICTURES OF CHRISTMAS PAST

I have to say that this has been one of the best holidays I've had in a long time. The entire month has been so much fun, with decorating the house, spending time with friends and family, Julia's preschool holiday program, and Christmas shopping for loved ones. Of course I've had several memorable Christmases in the past. For instance, my first Christmas with Andrew, our first Christmas engaged, our first Christmas as a married couple, and our first Christmas as parents. But this one was fun, because the girls are really getting into celebrating it and kids make Christmas so much fun. I'm sure next year will be just as fun!

For Christmas Eve, we had a full house filled with family. All of the grandparents made it, along with uncles and cousins. The house felt cozy and merry. We were all happy to be together.



I took pictures of our buffet table that I set up before everybody arrived and also of Julia and Evie by our Christmas tree. They're both wearing Misha Lulu outfits from the Fall 2011 line.





This is one of my favorite pictures of the night, Evie at the buffet table grabbing snacks. She kept going back for more and more. That little girl loves to eat and could pack it in!

I filled the girls stockings with some Color Land felt toys and other little goodies. Christmas morning we opened "Santa's" presents. I forgot to light up the Christmas tree, but we were having such a great time that none of us noticed.
