Whew! Merry Christmas Aftermath! Christmas evening, I looked over the sea of strewn toys, to the sprawled-out, PJ-clad bodies of our children watching a Christmas movie, and caught my husband’s eye… I mouthed with wide eyes, “We did it. I can’t believe it!! We actually pulled it off!!” We air high-fived with big, goofy grins, and everything. In two weeks’ time, we managed to move out, move in, finish some big paint projects, get doorknobs on, avoid a few potential plumbing disasters, decorate for Christmas, buy and wrap gifts, and host a couple of little family get togethers. Those air high-fives felt goooood. 😉 We even managed to squeeze in a holiday party to boot! We had to forgo attending several parties, this year (see above), so I was super excited to finally get a chance to wear this PERFECT (seriously, it’s perfect for any occasion) jumpsuit by Donna Morgan. Took some pre-party, shenanigany snaps with our PJ’d cuties. Doesn’t matter how much time goes by, I still get sad about leaving our babies, while simultaneously slurping up every second I get to spend with my favorite guy (especially if dancing is involved!).

May there always be dancing (and bellinis) in our lives. Amen.

Yes, bookshelves are not finished, and we still have about nine million little things to complete, and one million big things to start, but it can’t stop, won’t stop this fam from having some funnnn in the meantime.

Happy Holidays from our crazy crew to yours!
