Merry Christmas y'all (I'm in the South, I'm allowed to say that now). I hope Santa brought you everything you wished for and more! My family didn't do a gift exchange this year as we are on vacation together instead, so let me live vicariously through you - what was your favorite present this year?
We've been doing more of the same down here - lounging, playing board games, tanning when the sun is out, going on bike rides and walking along the beach.
Why did no one tell me sooner how versatile a mustard cardigan is?! I have seriously worn it every day we've been here.

I made Chris ride the girly bike. The boy bike matched my outfit better....
We even did a little swimming and boogie boarding. The water was ....chilly.
Various locations around the world that are special to our family, and how far away/what direction they are.
Fireworks and monopoly rounded out our Christmas Eve. The weather the rest of the week is looking promising, so hopefully I will return to Wisconsin with just a little bit of color.

Deletemerry christmas! i think this year my favorite gift is my new macbook :)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas! I love that your family decided to vacation together, it is such a great idea. Picking a favorite gift is hard, but I think the gift I will wear the most is a silver cuff bracelet that my grandmother picked out from a local store with pieces made by local artists. The fact that I probably won't see anyone else wearing the same cuff is pretty neat. =)

A family vacation sounds like so much fun! One of my favorites this year was a new pair of boots! But I also got a book with a secret compartment cut into it, that was pretty cool!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I love the slightly nautical feel of the cardigan with navy and white stripes. Looks like you're having a blast!
