Well, the festivities have well and truly kicked off over here at My Sub headquarters!
The sweet smell of baked cookies wafts through the house. Christmas music fills our hearts and home with joy, and the mulled wine and Jack Daniels flow freely (at this time of year my husband thinks he's Don Draper loves a good whiskey!).
Between putting batches of creamy cookie dough in the oven and telling my son for the millionth time to stop taking the ornaments off the tree, I find myself with a very rare moment of quiet....
...so I just want to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to you guys for reading and being so supportive in 2010. I've enjoyed your comments, your questions and having the opportunity to get to know some of you as well (hoping to chat more).
I wish you and your families a very Happy Holiday season and a New Year packed with fun, creativity, love and joy!
I also want to take this moment to share with you the Christmas tradition my husband and I have been doing, every year since we got married (almost 7 years ago now!).
Every year we get a new ornament for the tree, or are given one as a gift by a family member. The ornaments become so special this way because, when we dress our tree, they not only remind us of the person who gave them to us, but also of the time and the place we got them.
When I see them all hanging together they remind me of my family...
They come from all over the world
Each is so gloriously individual and different
When they get together special things happen.
Do you have any Holiday traditions? Would love to hear them. Hit me up in the comments below and let me know.
Best wishes
Jackie
