I dreamed a dream

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living

"mom...that was super fun!"

Took my lovely sledding for the first time.
Or so she says.
We got a new sled from Santa and this slippery snow was perfect for zooming right on down the same hill my sister and used to sled on when we were younger.
I used to hate sledding when I was a kid. For various reasons. Mainly because it always seemed like so much work for such a short thrill.
But with her....I could do it for hours. I love seeing how she lights up.
Totally worth coming inside with snow packed into the back of my jeans.

My favorite

For as long as I can remember this has been my favorite Christmas song of all time. It's not well known, but the lyrics are sweet and true.
Merry Christmas!

Merry merry

There's only 3 more sleeps til Christmas!
We are enjoying this holiday season with lots of spontaneous caroling, snuggly Christmas movies every night, plenty of Santa trips and as much love as feasibly possible.
It's been a hard Christmas season this year, but me and my girl are making the best of what we've got, livin' and lovin'.
We hope you and your little families are doing the same!
Have a very merry Christmas!

Winter is peeking...

Winter is right around the corner.
Up in these parts, Christmas music has been playing on our radio since the first snowfall on halloween.
Our tree was cut from a friendly little farm, dragged across the frozen ground, and decorated so sweetly.
We have started our nightly holiday movie and snuggles in the chilly air.
Winter hats and boots have been warming our heads, mittens are already stashed in our chilly car, and salt has been bought for the driveway.
Christmas cards are ordered.
Shopping has begin.
Winter crafts have been started.

It's the most wonderful time of the year!
