Christmas was lovely...and exhausting...but lovely nonetheless. It was full of moments containing straight up Christmas joy, (Sam channels Buddy the elf at this time of year) sadness for those who were lost and those left behind, wonder at how these two beautiful boys have grown, random acts of kindness and thankfulness for each other, family and all that we have. I have high hopes for 2013...some big exciting/terrifying changes ahead. But it's good and we're ready and above all we have each other, which is really what matters most in the world. I am thankful...completely and sincerely thankful. Farewell 2012 and Happy New Year to us all.
Christmas morning monkey bread...super easy and crazy delicious.

There's that Sammy Christmas spirit...it's positively delightful.
Christmas morning with our boys.
This is what's important, right here.
Sam's new hat...he picked it and bought it himself and I rather like it!
Winter has finally arrived.
Feels like we're inside of a snow globe today. It's lovely.
Pugs aren't really fans of the snow, but these guys seem to be having a good time today.
Sandy Hook weighed heavy on our hearts during the holiday.
Skeeter and I made snowflakes to send to the kids who are heading back to their new school in January. Our little guy is still unaware of this tragedy, but he was more than happy to make snowflakes for the kids in CT...just because. Such a good heart our Sammy has.
Hunkered down, awaiting a bright new year.
Wishing for a much more peaceful world.
