This weekend we celebrated Christmas round 1 with my Mom's side of the family in Kentucky. I am so incredibly blessed to have such an
amazing family who I can laugh with and simply enjoy every second of being with.

Pictured above: All my cousins with our "stockings." Since the youngest one of us is now in high school we moved from stockings to decorative bags so we all have something to take our stuff home in. The girl cousins have a little too much fun decorating them every year. |

Pictured above: The coolest gift ever |
We did a secret Santa gift exchange with our cousins and my sister's hammocks were the hit of the party. Since it was warm we headed out into the woods and tried them out. My sister is now selling these hammocks on Etsy so hop on over and check out her new
shop. I have one and it is awesome!
Tomorrow I will be celebrating 3 more Christmases and I hope they are all as sweet as the first one.
Merry Christmas eve friends!!
this looks like a blast!! i love the idea of the bags so you can take stuff home.
ReplyDeleteOK WOW. This looks like A LOT more fun than I have at any of my grandparents houses. We don't even decorate the table (sad!) but when I get married, this is CHANGING! Maybe they'll come to my house and I"ll be martha stewart for a day.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing family! You're very lucky (but you obviously know that :) The photo of your grandparents is so sweet, they look so in love... what a great example of marriage.
ReplyDeleteAnd the photo of your husband with the dog melted my heart. What a sweetheart.
Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family! xoxo
