I'll be home for Christmas...

Christmas has been spent home in CT this year, with both my parents and my in-laws! It's been a really low-key holiday, which is just what the doctor ordered. It even started snowing on Christmas Eve, while we were sipping our hot cocoa and watching 'It's a Wonderful Life'-it can't get much better than that!  And after a rough couple of weeks, we've all been remembering what this holiday is all about-the blessings in life that money can't buy.

Hope you all had a very Merry Christmas!!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...at the G house!!

I love decorating the house this time of year. Going to storage and sifting through years' worth of ornaments, wreaths, pillows, etc. makes me all happy inside as I reminisce on years' past. The house always seems warmer and cozier to me this time of year. There's nothing like coming home after a long day, it's dark outside and only 4pm, and seeing the Christmas Tree all lit up. 

To me, it really is the most wonderful time of the year!

Happy decorating!!

Oh Saturday Mornings

There's something calm and peaceful around here on Saturday mornings. After waking up all week to a beeping alarm, there's a peace in waking up when my body decides to....which is usually before 7:30 lately, but still. I know Saturdays may not always be quiet and calm, especially when little ones are running around, but for now, Saturday mornings are tranquil and I love every moment...

O Christmas Tree

December is here, and we're in full on 'Holiday House' over here at the G house :) 

The fire is lit, holiday music is playing, and the tree is up! 

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

O Christmas Tree

And this video is hilarious! I may be heard saying a few of these things throughout the day....I love my tree!!
