    1. I love that nightgown so much it reminds me of my own childhood! Although it's not pictured here I actually ordered a similar one for myself in a large girls size! I'm such a momma in it on Christmas. xx

  2. Beautiful photos mama! You really have a talent :) Your family is so lovely...I just showed by husband the "matching" Christmas outfits your kids were wearing and he loved it. I can't get over Adrian in that suit with the sneakers! And...that's a pretty sweet gingerbread house. Thanks for this glimpse into your family life Monica.

    1. Kera, you are so kind. Thank you. I made the kids the matching Christmas outfits last year out of an ancient skirt that belonged to my MIL. I was thrilled to stuff them in the outfits for one more year! It fit Lucia well, but was a bit small on the boy! My mom always made gingerbread houses me and my brother when we were kids - entire villages actually. Ours was such a disaster. I seriously broke out a glue gun, school glue and blow dryer, as my kiddos watched on! Wishing you all the best in the new year. xx - Monica

    1. Thanks so much Mandi, but the key here is "glimpses"! I'm not usually compelled to take pictures of the hot-mess that we sometimes are, the dishes piled in the sink and the never ending heaps of laundry! Thanks so much for visiting.
