Our mid December in pics!

Life has been non-stop around here lately! We are hopping from one place to the next..Between slumber party's, birthday's, school performance's, more birthdays, and Christmas right around the corner to say we are busy is an understatement; but we are having fun making new memories!
Here are a few pics from Ellie Kate's school performance... 
And some pics from decorating the Christmas tree and a visit with Santa!

Hope everyone has a great weekend! 
XOXO

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!


Christmas is right around the corner, and I for one,  can not wait! It's my absolute favorite holiday! 
Life has been super busy lately, but it's finally beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the Love home!
One of my favorite parts of the Christmas season is picking out our tree! I believe it's the kids favorite part too!
Ellie Kate spotted the one she wanted almost immediately and received Jude's approval on it as well. 

Nothing but pure joy and excitement on those little faces. 


And so.. we took that massive piece of forest laying behind Jude home with us!
Because the tree was slightly taller than what we needed, I asked them to cut the bottom and save the trimmings. 
Some of our Christmas decor got ruined during our move; our garland was among that which was ruined.
I searched everywhere and couldn't find the 'perfect' garland, so I decided to take on a DIY project with EK and make my own! It was super easy!
First, I cut the trimmings down to the lengths I needed. Then connected and  secured each piece with wire. 

And..Voila!

Happy holidays from our home to yours!
