Thank you, December. You did it. You absolutely were the best one. Way to go. Every sweet moment that could possibly be held & remembered & treasured, you provided. You wrapped up a magical year like a boss. Christmas week was the S T A R.
We hosted a few of our merriest parties and filled our cottage up with family&friends&neighbors//old&new. Many of our most favorite people were here and it was so super FUN. We even hired a caterer & bartender which is about as fancy as we get.
Christmas EveEve was McCarthy Chili Verde Night. It's tradition & yummy & really special. Our family is warm&silly& everyone is FUNNY. We laugh the whole night through. It feels good. I'm
deeply thankful for McCarthy's. We belong to each other.
(Plus. Now we have secret service. So don't worry about us. We're safe:)
We celebrated Christmas Eve at my parents and Christmas Day at my Ant Bert's. Every minute together was filled with love&games&food& laughter & a deep sense of gratitude.
The night before Christmas sleepover was the cherry-on-top. Best friends&matching blankies& mimosas to toast our brand new happily-engaged couple. IT WAS MAGIC.
And so now I've been pondering and treasuring. My family says I say it every year. But TRULY.
For so many beautiful reasons. THIS WAS THE MERRIEST CHRISTMAS EVER.
