I may be a little late with the timing… but I’m okay with that. Even though Christmas has come and gone, I still wanted to share some of our holiday highlights from this year! So, a little personal photo dump of precious moments to remember...

Special times with my parents, including dedicating Levi at our American church:


Days spent not changing out of our pj's:


Hot tubbing in the snow:


Quality and quantity time with my awesome husband:


Morning sleep-ins and family cuddle time in bed:

Dear friends, it’s hard to imagine life without digital photos… or even just any kind of photos. Aren’t we blessed to be able to capture memories visually like this? I hope you were able to get some great Christmas photos this year too.

glad for the memories caught on "film",

  8. You will always remember this Christmas. Looks like it was fantastic. I love hot-tubbing in the snow too!

    I thought my family was the only one who opened stockings in bed. My sisters and I still did this in my parent's bed until we were married. My husband and I enjoyed so much this first Christmas of opening presents with Laney in our bed.
