CHRISTMAS!! I cannot say enough how much I love this time of year. The joy, the celebration, the love. Our stockings are hung by the chimney with care, our Nativity scene has taken it’s place on the mantel, the tree is decked in lights and ornaments…our home is warm and cheerful and I absolutely love it.
Every Winter, our favorite lil man Capone {English bulldog} gets calm and lazy. He appreciates partial-hibernation as much as his parents do and it makes for some pretty great, cuddly evenings together. We used to be more strict about him getting up on the furniture, but cuddling with him is so so worth having to clean the couch 4x as often as before. The other night, he jumped up on the chair and fell fast asleep, snoring away. He wasn’t cuddling with us but it was so darn cute, I didn’t want to disturb him. Absolutely love this little guy.
I am loving having this blog as a forum to document the little details of our lives right now. D and I are incredibly happy, beyond blessed, and absolutely in love with each other and this little life we’ve created. Someday we hope to have house full of babies and puppies {2 max, I promise 🙂 } and that will be perfect in it’s own right, but for now we are soaking up every minute of this “simpler” life.
Off to go cuddle up with my boys!
