While not a normal Christmas, this year managed to still have some magic to it. We deeply missed our traditions and seeing our friends and families but managed to see all four grandparents safely as well as my parents, my sister and her family, and my brother and his wife. Jake and Meghna even got to stay with us for two nights. The best!!

My cards arrived on Christmas Eve Eve this year. Sam ran out to get stamps and we stuffed them all just in time for Christmas Eve pick up. This year held many firsts including not getting my cards out on time. I still love the way they turned out. Cards found here.

Every year I try to change up the card display. Holiday cards are my favorite and each family and card means so much to us.

Early in the week we finally got our first egg but it had been stepped on. Here’s our first perfect egg that we got to eat this morning. So yummy! Love the girls getting to see what all goes in to getting our food.

I went very nostalgic this year. Wishing for a simpler time. Praying you and yours had a wonderful week and cheers to brighter days ahead and making the most of every gift and moment with the ones we love!
