Buffalo Plaid Christmas Home 2017
I know that Christmas has come and gone but we are still very much rocking our Christmas home and will be until after the New Year. Heck, we just finished our last Christmas celebration last night. Plus, I’ve been working on this post for like a solid week and just haven’t been able to get it together. So, I’m sharing my new and improved (not really! but maybe a little) buffalo plaid Christmas home with you guys! If you’ve followed my blog for the past couple years, you probably already know how much I love Christmas and decorating my home for the holidays. There is just something so peaceful to…
Outdoor Christmas Home
Something that I’ve never shared here on the blog before is my outdoor Christmas home. I’m really not sure why I’ve never gotten around to it but every year, Cory and I semi-Griswold the outside of our home.

Maybe it’s because as a kid, we lived on a farm with no neighbors so my parents never decorated the outside of our house, or maybe it’s because seeing a house lit up really does remind me of the magic of Christmas.
Baker Meets Santa 2017
Just like last year, our favorite photographer Chase Todd from Chase Todd Photography hosted Santa pictures in his studio. Since our chubby little 5-month old was so fascinated by ‘ole St. Nick last year, I couldn’t wait to let Baker meet Santa again. Last year went sooo well and she’s really not a shy kid so I went in (alone, I might add–bad idea from the start!) with high expectations.
Thanksgiving 2017
Another Thanksgiving with our Baker girl and my first official “school break” since starting my new job with the school district. Even though it was just one day longer than my previous job, that day made a big difference! Baker and I enjoyed a lot of snuggle time since Daddy had to work most of the break, but it was a sweet time to recharge with my little family.
