bonfire | Shenanigans

Christmas is over and i’ve been relaxing/recovering the past few days in preparation for the New Year! December went by in a flurry of party’s, gift exchanges, work dinners, and family time. It has truly been a joyous month, but i’m definitely ready for a bit of a slow down starting on the first. As I have barely blogged this month (whoops), I thought I gather up a few of my favorite photos from the month to share with you!

Had coffee with these two Gems! This is the face little F.T. makes when you ask hime to smile. Cheese!

Holiday barn potluck, complete with petting zoo, rope swing, and horseback rides.

Lil Sebastian any one? J.K.

Mini pony! She kept trying to eat my jacket. I giggled a lot.

And no December is complete without a bonfire!

Brown paper packages tied up with string! Please tell me you sang that.

Apple pie making setup! If you have never used an apple corer/peeler, find one. So simple a tool, but it has made peeling apples a relatively relaxing experience, as I hate peeling them with a traditional peeler.

Unbaked, but one of the prettiest pies I’ve ever made. Sadly, I forgot to get an after shot 😦

My sister and her family surprised us on Christmas eve by showing up at our parents house. We don’t often get to see them on Christmas, and we were more than a little excited. Their outfits also put my parents and I to shame 😦 , as I spent most of the week in leggings and tee’s.
