Winter Recap - Hello Christmas!

I never did post about Christmas, did I? Guess it's time to do that simply. 

Hello celebrating the reason for the season. Our church decorations were stunning and it felt like Christmas inside (and out). It was even 'snowing' during services! One of our favorite traditions is decorating the church on Thanksgiving Eve. It was lots of work this year (I really don't know how they will top this next year) but it truly felt magical inside.
Hello gorgeous table - my mother in law has a great eye for design. And she graciously hosted my parents as well - our normal gathering of 5 people was 11 this year! So much love.
Hello sister in law! Lauren studied in Italy this semester and returned to NY just in time for Christmas. She was so missed.
 Hello friends - new and old. We went to a perfectly festive Christmas coctail party. It was such a blast!
Hello argyle wreath - my only craft project this Christmas.
Hello ugly sweaters!
 Hello PJs! We always change into comfy clothes for present opening. Freddy's shirt is from a local pizza place...but he's scrum too.
Hello sweet treats. My brother created yummy desserts for us.
Hello little Nutcracker angels! This performance really made it feel like Christmas.
 Hello bro - I just adore that my brother and I dressed up this year for Christmas like we were in a wedding party together. He was originally in a 3-piece suit and I dressed up to sing at church. When we were little ones, we were the most dressed up on any holiday, so I guess we tried to bring that back this year.
 Hello Magi clan! Maybe we should have snapped this before we had our coats on, but at least we had a great shot together.
Hello Merry Little Christmas.
Hope you all enjoyed yours.
