Christmas

Making cookies!
Lot's of hearts and flour.

Trying to look like a real baker.

Our scary snowman...

was accidentally beheaded! :(

Christmas morning with this cute boy!

Isabelle the elf (don't worry Ronald isn't strangling her) :)

Christmas breakfast: French press coffee, oj and Pillsbury orange rolls.

Ronald talking to his stocking.

Ronald kissing his stocking.

Yum!

Bourbon!

Gift certificates!
Our Christmas was so nice. In the morning Ronald and I opened all the presents under the tree, and we gave lots of toys to the pups. My favorite gift is a leather refillable sketchbook that I have been wanting all year, it's so perfect and lovely, I can't wait to fill it with sketches!

We spent the afternoon with my in-laws. We watched movies and had a yummy simple dinner. It was relaxing which is just what we needed.

Today Ronald is back to work, and life returns to a bit of normalcy. I usually get really depressed Christmas night and the days after Christmas, but this year I really tried to keep my spirits up and although I am depressed, I didn't get the after Christmas blues which would have made things worse. So that's something.

How was your holiday? I hope it was dreamy and light, happy and restful.

xx, C
