And the season is oh so jolly this year. It is no secret this year has been extra special for us. But last year was special too {wedding} and the year before that was also special {engagement}. Ever since I met my husband in 2011 and we started dating in 2012, I feel like my life has been getting better and better each year. We have so many things to be thankful for, I couldn’t possibly list them all. This holiday season, I am holding my boys close and thanking God for them every day. I am doing my best to be present, to live in the moment, and to savor this time in my life where my only job is loving and caring for my family. I would give just about anything to have this be my only job for longer than the next 7 weeks but that’s a story for a different day.

One of my very favorite things about this season is the decorations! We don’t have a ton, but try to add bits of Christmas cheer wherever we can. I am hoping that we can get a real tree next year! For now, please enjoy far too many pictures of our decorations 🙂

| I wouldn’t mind a life-size version of this tree! |
 |
| I love our little nativity scene |
 |
| Our stockings are missing but will hopefully be delivered soon! |
 |
| We might love cookies more than Santa… |
 |
| Our tree! |
 |
| December = Christmas jammies and outfits all day every day! Duke is excited about it and all the kisses he’s getting. |
 |
| Santa butts…that is all. |
 |
| My heart about burst watching him take in his first Christmas tree! |
I love the month of December and I couldn’t be more excited about Duke’s first Christmas. Our boy is already growing so fast and he gets more interactive and smiley by the day. Except during a growth spurt…then we aren’t quite as smiley! Growing is hard work. I am loving this life and this season with my boys and I hope you’re all soaking up the joys of the holidays!
