Be Merry!

The Christmas season is here and I am loving all of the traditions of the season.  It’s the season to be merry!

Dan does a really good job getting the tree each year! It’s one of his favorite traditions the day after Thanksgiving.

I got this new plaid ribbon from a cute local store, Digs, and I just love it! They have fabulous things right now!

These are our Christmas cards that I ordered from Tiny Prints! I just love how they turned out! I love the gold envelopes with matching liner and address labels. Pretty holiday stamps really complete the look!

I think the pictures that I took on fall break turned out pretty cute too!

This bulb vase is another Digs find! I love how simple and chic it is.

Nanz and Kraft, a local florist, hosted a floral design class at the Boat Club and I loved it. It was a fun night out and I think my arrangement turned out cute.

Harper was in her dance school’s version of the Nutcracker. She was a French clown! It was very cute!

We couldn’t miss brunch with Santa and Mrs. Claus!

Harper’s fifth-grade recital was last week and I was amazed at how pretty it was. They did such a great job!

We had fun at the gingerbread workshop! Work a little, eat a little!

We got cute Godiva chocolate for our neighbors, which is much less stressful than baking! Finishing them off with cute tags from Tiny Prints made them polished and perfect!

I made sterling silver and blue quartz earrings for all my children’s teachers. I got these adorable gift tags from Paper Source! I think they make the presentation!

This home fragrance is so simple and makes the house smell like Christmas! I just slice up an orange, add some cranberries, a cinnamon stick and a tablespoon of cloves to some water and simmer. I keep adding water as it evaporates!
