Bringing the Blog BACK with our Yuletide Season

Ok all – I admit when I moved on over here to WordPress I got super intimidated by all the functionality. I couldn’t even figure out how to upload a picture SO, I quit. And it haunts me. Because we have SO much amazingness to share and I would be devastated if I came this far only to stop documenting when things REALLY get good. The boys are 9 and 11 and changing by the day. The last time I left them with you, they were a banana and a werewolf. Next notable holiday was Christmas, where one was still a Santa believer and one was not. Let’s dive in.
Here we have our annual family tree selection photo. You’ll notice Ashton comes up to my nose, thereabouts. He also wears bigger shoes than I do.

  Now, for the first time ever, we did not wake up at our house on Christmas. Instead we traveled on Christmas Eve, probably THE MOST terrifying ferry ride we’ve ever been on to Hampton Bays. At one point the captain got on the loudspeaker and said “IF you are not sitting down, sit down. And hold on, this is going to get bad.” No joke Alex started praying to Santa.

  Spoiler alert: we made it across, went out to dinner and managed to have a nice day with Grandma and Grandpa (COVID hit the other family members, it was so sad we couldn’t see them) and then on the 26th, Ashton woke up puking sooo we headed home a day early. Merry merry! Haha. It was not funny at the time though. Anyway we still got a tree and decorated it and overall the holiday was festive!
