It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!



Hi family and friends! I haven't posted in awhile, but wanted to say Happy December! 

The Christmas season has always and will probably forever be my favorite time of the year. As we close in on December 25th, I believe that too many of us forget why we are celebrating. Our Savior, Christ the Lord, was given to us as a dear sweet baby to redeem us and give us hope, joy, and love. These are the gifts and feelings we all need to be focusing on-not how many presents are left on the list. Let's not get too stressed out or "dread" the season, but be joyful in it. Let's focus on being mindful of God's presence and love in our hearts and families. 

Christmas in our home this year is going to be so much fun. Anna (almost 2) and newly 4 year old Nicholas are now old enough to be thrilled Christmas morning. The joy in little people's eyes is so refreshing as they are completely happy with the little things. They are truly pure of heart and I envy it. Of course, Santa is a topic in this house and Nicholas inquires about him almost everyday, but I'm also making an effort to emphasize Christ's birth. At age 4 and 2, it's hard to understand that Christmas isn't all about getting presents, but we'll get there eventually.

I'm here to share some of my favorite Christmas ideas and Pins.
