the perfect place to be...

is in the moment.

as the year winds to a close i wanted to share just a few photos of some of the best ways i could imagine spending this month.. . with our families.
hope you enjoyed your holidays and you got to spend time with those you love most.

             just loved how everyone came together to help kerry and drew with their new home.
            i feel so blessed to have such kind caring people in my life and in my children's lives.


                                                                 celebrating move in day.

                            welcoming mom home enjoying a christmas show at the pops
       

       consuming endless amounts of hot chocolate with homemade peppermint marshmallows.
                    finding the edible peppermint spoons just made this drink totally christmas.

                   decorating the house for christmas always includes some christmas bedding



i really enjoyed cooking up some old fashioned christmas treats.  memories from long ago. one of my                                                               grandmothers specialties
our card that never went out.  i had good intentions there were just too many other things to do.

cozy fires every evening.

                the endless sushi at my works christmas party.  who ordered all this food anyway?

                     my favorite holiday girls only party, so glad my mom could make it this year


some of the best friends around.
