Christmas Town USA
Oh. my. gosh. This place is incredible. And I’m not even gonna pretend that Gracie was the one who really wanted to go to Christmas Town USA. It was me. I adore Christmas lights and if I thought for two seconds our neighbors wouldn’t say something, I would leave mine up year round. I found out about this place a few years ago and we finally made it the day after Christmas. It was about a two hour trip {and worth every second of the drive} and this little town known as McAdenville was like something out of a movie. What I’d give if I could live in a neighborhood…
Christmas 2013
I can’t believe that Christmas has already come and gone. I know I’m behind with my recap of our Christmas but we’ve been so busy. It’s been ridiculous. I think this year was officially the longest we’ve ever celebrated Christmas. We started the Sunday before and finished up the next Sunday in Asheville.

After dinner, we…

New Year Revolution
You’ve seen that commercial, right? Please say yes. If not, you have to watch. Even if you’ve seen it, I know you want to watch it again. These are some of my favorite commercials because they’re all so natural and just. so. cute. Last year, Cory set goals for the year rather than resolutions and it worked out pretty well for him. He’s written down his goals for 2014 and I thought I would share my goals for the year. Floss every day. For 2013, one of my resolutions was to take better care of my skin and teeth. I’m embarrassed to say that I don’t floss every day {or…
