I'm not ready to say goodbye to the holidays just yet! We'll have the decorations up through the weekend and bid a festive farewell on Sunday. I'm really savoring the last few days of the season, because it was such a good one this year. While we had several rainy weekends, stir crazy kids, and lingering colds for all, it was still such a fantastic month of celebration.
My holiday night out with my best girls was SO much fun.

EB and I's third annual Nutcracker date. This year was extra special because we got to see Emma as the sweetest purple friend in the opening scene!

This was the third annual Holiday Cheer night in our neighborhood, where we have hot chocolate and carriage rides to see the lights. This has become a really special tradition and a night we look forward to all year.

MB's Christmas Program was so wonderful. She was the sweetest singing angel, wearing a dress of mine from the 90s.
I am so proud of this girl of mine. She's sugar and spice and so much fun.

We celebrated K's birthday with steak and a special bottle of wine. I made this black and white to really set the ambience.

SANTA!
I can't believe EB sat for this picture. She hasn't even wanted to walk past Santa the last few years, let alone TALK to him. They all did so great and I love the photo we got. This was the first year of "The Charleston Santa" down at the Best Friend Train museum. I was very impressed with the whole experience. Afterwards we went to the Elf Emporium at the Children's Museum where each of the girls' bought presents for eachother <3
