christmas 2017

We started our decorating this year realllyyy early. Like....before my birthday early. But, this being our first year at home, we all wanted it to be extra special. It was a family effort, and you guys all had a great time. That is rareee....believe me. But, I hope it's the start of a new tradition, either way, I'll take it :)

Our actual Christmas didn't go so well. Bells, you got sick right as you got out of school. By the 22nd you were REALLY sick. This flu season has been hell...and you were the first one down. We didn't leave the house until right before New Year. Both me and you were sick for more than a week. It was the worst! 

When we finally felt better, we squeezed in some late Christmas activities. 

By New Year we were feeling somewhat better, so we went to your grandma's house.
