Merry Christmas 2021

Merry Christmas and a very Happy Holidays to you!  Thank you so much for blessing our family by being a part of this blog, part of our journey, and offering your support and encouragement every step of the way. You never cease to amaze me, and your kindness truly humbles me. I feel lucky to navigate life’s ups and downs with this fantastic community.

I am so grateful for the opportunity to share my interests and passions with you, from fashion, beauty, and undergarments, to our home, recipes, and our traditions. Thanks to every one of you, I can live the life of my wildest dreams from this tiny corner of the internet.

I hope you’re able to have a wonderful weekend filled with love, laughter, and togetherness. The holidays can be difficult for many, so please know my sincere thoughts are with you, thinking of those who have experienced loss.

For Christmas Eve, we’ll be heading over to my mom’s house for a festive Christmas Eve brunch. I made lasagna using leftovers from my great-grandma’s sauce and meatball recipe that we’ll be enjoying tonight. I feel very grateful that despite my parents being divorced, we can all celebrate the holidays together as one modern family. We will be hosting my and BK’s family over tomorrow for Christmas Day. You know I’ll be making my quiche and enjoying my dad’s cutout cookies… It has brought me so much joy to see you recreating our recipes; keep the pictures coming.

Lots and lots of love and joy from our hearts to yours!

xoxo
Caralyn, Brian, and Walter

My idea of Christmas, whether old-fashioned or modern, is very simple: loving others. Come to think of it, why do we have to wait for Christmas to do that?" – Bob Hope

Don’t mind BK’s shoes…. he was feeling rebellious after our 3rd outfit change to get the perfect shot… Luckily, we can laugh about it now! :)
