December is in full swing! 2012 has been so amazing! I plan on soaking up all that December has to offer. :) This is the 2nd year Eric and I have been in our home together so we are just getting into the groove of our holiday traditions. I loved the holiday's growing up. I always had so much to look forward to!
First off, it wasn't Christmas time without my grandmothers famous peanut clusters! They were the best! If we couldn't make it there for Christmas she would send some our way. yummm.
So you're probably thinking...Barbie in her pink convertible? No...I didn't get it for Christmas (that I can remember) But I was kind of obsessed with lights and our tree. I remember specifically one Christmas my mom let me take all of my Barbies and play under the tree on Christmas eve. There weren't any gifts under the tree yet because Santa hadn't come yet. (duh) I remember laying under the lights driving my Barbie around and making up some imaginary story having so much fun. I played for so long under that tree that I fell asleep and woke up the next morning in bed, all of my barbies were put away and present were magically under the tree. I was so confused and excited at the same time. Thanks mom! :)
Speaking of lights and pretty trees, growing up my mom always had the best decor for our house. (For the 90's that is LOL) It has definitely influenced me and inspired me to decorate my own home, in my own unique way. She always did and still does, decorate with lots of lights and lots of love. I like to think that I do the same. :)
Cheers to happy holidays, and time with loved ones.
