Boston was hit with a snowstorm this weekend and I was actually pretty excited about it – being snowed in makes me feel like a kid again. Though I didn’t go out and play in the show, watching it pile up outside my window in the comfort of my sweatshirt, and getting to watch our little kittens experience it for the first time, was enough.

Having been away for most of December so far, Christmas has sort of come out of nowhere for me, but this weekend it finally flooded our apartment. We watched the Muppet Christmas Carol and played Christmas music all day long. Best of all, on Saturday Mike and I got our very first tree.

He’s a small little guy, about my height, but we love it. We don’t have too many ornaments but we plan on building upon it, picking up a new one here and there each year.
As much as I love to get away, staying home and doing things that during any other season would seem lazy, get me into the spirit of the holidays.
What gets you excited for the holidays?



















I love that picture of the kitties!
Merry Christmas, Susan!
