merry xmas!! one day late because i was sick in be merry xmas!! one day late because i was sick in bed all day yesterday, which was so sad for me because it’s my super bowl 😭 but i’m on the mend and so thankful for our first xmas photo in front of a (sort of) real life fireplace, dreams come true! i love you guys and hope you had a beautiful holiday!
it’s just not christmas until i’ve lined up all my it’s just not christmas until i’ve lined up all my freshly wrapped gifts in a grid for the grid!
thought it would be sweet to share some of our fav thought it would be sweet to share some of our fave holiday traditions (+ some new ones i’m adding this year!) #AppleBooksPartner
✷ i always upcycled packaging materials to wrap our gifts, and i love my alone time to wrap with a cozy @applebooks audiobook and bevvie
✷ we do an eggnog taste test! it’s almost always the least fancy ones that win
✷ we gift each kid an ornament that represents something that they loved that year, and document it in a little notebook
✷ we bake the worlds best gingersnaps and attempt to gift them out before eating 98% of them
✷ we always make our own clay ornaments (gid is the show off, but we make them too!)
✷ we eat a red and green fruit salad on xmas morning, always, no matter what!
✷ we make the house feel like a snowglobe – we usually make coffee filter snowflakes but this year we drew with chalk markers and it’s so cuteeeee
✷ excited to find out my main character energy on @applebooks year in review!
✷ we put out snacks for the delivery drivers (weirdly, gum is always the most taken item!!)
✷ i always take a week off from social media, and instead use my phone to read. currently catching up on the latest @reesesbookclub picks on @applebooks
✷ andddd the best part, TWO christmas trees! going to have the kids decide the theme every year, but i’m sure it’ll be coastal every year haha
buddy pasta from elf! so disgusting but my kids we buddy pasta from elf! so disgusting but my kids were soooo stoked 😆 a very cute and very exciting treat to surprise your kids with this week!!

i did angel hair with marshmallows, gummies, pb candy pieces, mini pop tarts, chocolate sauce, maple syrup and sprinkles
unfortunate news — yesterday it rained and my beau unfortunate news — yesterday it rained and my beautiful snowy view all melted away, so now i’ll reminisce about last weekend instead because that was so superior! 

CROSSING EVERY FINGER FOR SNOW ON XMAS EVE NOW ❄️
