i wish things would be like this time all year around. family togetherness, fires, bright decorations, lights, cold weather movies, hot chocolate, and all that christmas entails. the time between thanksgiving and christmas is by far my favorite time. the tree goes up, lights are scattered around the house, and everything seems to smell like cinnamon. i get to wear my big sweaters and my fuzzy boots topped off by my pom-pom ball hat. all is right in the land of katie. i love christmas. i love what we celebrate and i adore how we celebrate it. traditions, family, food, laughter, it's wonderful.


happy christmas.
