It was our first Christmas with a baby girl,
even though she spent the holiday with roseola
and the pitiful attitude to go along with it.
It was the first Christmas where vinyl was played,
the first with our new vintage tinsel tree,
the first where cornbread muffins and cupcakes were from scratch
and one where the gifts were not lavish, yet very well received.
It was a humble Christmas, and it felt just right.
Lots of exciting things coming in 2012
This weekend feels like the quiet before the storm.
Here’s to a new year of love and creativity!
Wishing so much love and goodness to you and yours. <3
