Wow! I’m not a fan of the holidays flying fast but I am a fan of Friday’s and sharing with you some of our family fun and favorites during the blessed season. Hoping 2023 brings joy, happiness, and good health to you all my friends!
1. Family
May have been some of my favorite family time yet despite one gathering postponed due to weather being -40 below! BUT spent all day Christmas with these darlings. Just missing our Pharmacy resident in Baltimore (but she’s off next year!) And the postponed night at moms was wonderful.
This girl was ready for Christmas!
Ruth's Chris on the 26th to celebrate Birthdays, College Graduation and an engagement (the other engagement had not happened yet)

Family Recreates
Oh my, were these ever fun! I came across some of these photos as it was getting closer to Christmas, and I knew it was time to re-create this family goodness. I don’t know why I didn’t think of getting one of the five of us, but I did get the three boys reenacting the year that our youngest still believed in Santa. And because it’s a rarity to have all three boys when we see the cousins, I had to do Mr. Nine’s sister’s family with a couple re-creates too.
Hilarious these 3 trying to re-create it!!

With the Cuz's
Love this fam.
2. 2nd Son ENGAGED
Eek, when our son got back to Baltimore, he proposed! That’s right friends; 2 sons engaged within 2 weeks of each other! Exciting times!
3. What I Wore
Didn’t take many pictures of what I wore at all, but the hot pink blazer was a favorite as well as this dress that I wore to a holiday dinner.
4. Charcuterie Wreath
I actually had someone on TikTok that did not believe that I made this. She obviously has not followed me very long, lol. Look how amazing the Christmas wreath charcuterie turned out. Mr. Nine told me I should start my own seasonal business for these. You know I love my Charcuterie friend, but I think there might be a market for the wreath idea. Anyway, I plan on sharing the whole thing and how I did it on the blog next Christmas season.
Awesome Wood Tray for this found HERE

POSTS LATELY
Since a lot of you were not around like for Christmas, linking the posts around the holiday too.
EARRINGS OF THE MONTH
from Nickel & Suede
I just ordered these earrings of the month. I love the neutral aspect and style. Nickel and Suede are my most worn earrings, and the earring of the month is always a good one at a great price.
Have a great weekend
my sweet friends.
