FRIDAY FAVORITES LET'S GET LIT

Three more sleeps until Christmas. I think it’s just so cute when people say that I’m sure we will use it with the twins when they get older and their excitement mounts to Christmas Day! Just sharing some festive love on this last holiday Friday favorites! Was beyond bummed when we did not get to go into Chicago for some festive fun due to tons of yucky rain. I was so looking forward to all the outside events and special pop-ups. I guess it’ll have to be next year. But excited to show you this holiday love!

1. Let’s Get Lit

Here it is the photo that graced the front of our Christmas card. Mr. Nine chose our outfits this year and again they were supposed to be for a party that got canceled but we were able to wear them to a holiday dinner. Doesn’t his bulb placement crack you up?

Here’s the back of the card. I don’t know about you other empty nesters, but it’s so hard b/c I still want to include my family, but it was impossible to get a group family photo this year, so I still included little snippets of them.

AND THE TWINS CUTENESS

The lab results are in…they are indeed Identical Twins..a 30% chance even when in separate sacs.

Remember I got these Pink Onesies for the gender reveal, had 2 blue just in case.

2. Hood Brunch

I called this the hood brunch because it was my friends in the neighborhood coming over for a festive morning last Friday. We had a ball. Already looking forward to the next get together and two of the ladies are planning an around the world party which will be so much fun when the weather gets warmer!

And my first attempt at a Brunch Breakfast Board.

3. Lights with Mom

Then that night, my mom and I attended the Christmas light viewing at our Wellfield Botanical Gardens. It was such a lovely night, not bitter cold and the lights were gorgeous.

FRIDAY FAVORITES THE MAGIC OF THE SEASON

Santa’s arrival is getting way too close my friends! Unfortunately, my December didn’t really get real festive until today when I host a brunch for friends this morning! I’m so excited! Oh, wait, we did have Mr. Nine’s work dinner on Wednesday night at Ruth’s Chris! And then there’s the botanical lights tonight and hopefully fingers and toes crossed not only can Mr. Nine and I do something festive this weekend, but finally see the twins since our sickness. We gave it a good two weeks just to be safe from seeing them.

1. Twins

It sure did make me smile to get pictures of them. It always does but even extra while we were sick. Don’t they look like precious dolls in these pictures?

2. Stella Mae Turns 2

Speaking of cuties, our precious, Stella Mae turned two on Monday! I can’t believe she left the sunglasses on. The tutu kept falling off, but we sure did get some cute pictures! Our lil Diva.

Remember when she was just 2 MONTHS?!

3. Outfits Lately

I didn’t actually wear these outfits out, but hopefully I will. It was to make an Instagram video showcasing the metallic flats I showed you last week from Cecilia New York. But let me note how cool the Rhinestone Bra is! It’s kind of like a corset from Amazon, so well-made, and just super sparkly and cool!

4. Oh The Dinner

We had a Christmas Party to attend Wednesday night. I wanted to get dressed up but Mr. Nine had his heart set on wearing out matching “Lights” outfits. More on these outfits next week. They were a huge hit, and the party was so much fun this is one of only a couple pics snapped. I’ll take festiveness form Mr. Nine wherever I can get it! lol

2. Fun Weekend

We had lots of fun last weekend!!

Notre Dame Game

We went to the Notre Dame Syracuse game, which was so fun, especially since it was so close and we ultimately lost by one point. I love the pace of basketball games.

Afterwords, we went to the Irish pub across from campus called O’Rourke’s, and it was so yummy!

I didn’t really feel like wearing the team logo, so instead, I wear the team colors in a chic way with the Blazer and Sneaks.

Son's Birthday

Then, on Sunday, we celebrated this boy turning 25! We had a great brunch at one of our favorite local restaurants, and I made his always requested apple crisp!

3. Wearing Red

Red is one of my favorite colors, so you can bet I put a lot of it out this time of year!

This DRESS is from Draper James at Kohl’s, and it is such a pretty sweater dress, with great detailing in the net and the bellowing sleeves.

It was a week of Blazers with this pretty red one and some gray jeans.

4. Dunkin' Gift Idea

I know many people who are fans of Dunkin’ Donuts! This is the perfect little affordable gift to put together. The Dunkin' Chocolates in their most famous donut flavors are available at Target as well as the Dunkin’ hot chocolate bombs. Put a gift Card from Dunkin’ in a cute coffee cup Gift holder and you’ve got the perfect gift.

STELLA MAE

This girl who turns the Big ONE Sunday is truly the light of our lives. She gets to go on a little road trip with us next week. We got her lots of cute gifts for Christmas and her birthday the sweater below is one I’m super excited about. She is so easy on her toys but this is her second pink monkey, she thinks it's her "baby" and the first one got all dirty, lol
