It has been a whirlwind of a few months!

Nate and I have been ALL over the U.S., and Addi somewhat, too.  New York, Orlando, Colorado Springs, Charlotte (N.C.), Chattanooga & Knoxville (TN), Chicago, Michigan.  We’ve had some tough times, and some GREAT times.  I wouldn’t trade it!

But we are here to stay at home…at least until he heads to Vegas at the first of January and then we head to LA in February…WHEW!  I love it, but I’m glad to be put for a while.  Our house is ll Christmasy with the fat tree downstairs, illuminating the kitchen, living room, stairs, and the loft where my office is.  Addi has a little Mickey Mouse tree in her room, and our den has been INVADED my snowmen!  (Thank you, Ashley, for all your help.  I miss you.).

The smell of gingerbread men and Russian tea - a favorite my mom use to make - fills the spaces between the lights. It’s not fancy, but it feels perfect.  I just want it to be like this all year round…can’t it? :’)
