TBB ASKS ~ HOLIDAY EDITION

The Holiday magic is upon us, snowflakes are floating in the air and joyous hearts are marveling in the sparkle of the season! I personally have a son turning 21 tomorrow....what? How can this be? I mention this because as fast as the Holiday season goes, the years go faster and you blink and your babies are grown but it still feels like they should be babies. Hold on tight to the special moments that surround you and arise when you least expect it. We sure hope you’ll join us or hop around and check out what others love about this glorious Holiday season! 
Let’s get to it! 



1. Candy Canes? Yes or No? YES, I like the Big homemade ones. BUT no flavored ones..ucky.


2. Christmas morning early riser or sleep in? When the boys were little it was when they woke up but now it's a more relaxed pace. We open gifts about 9 am then have breakfast.


3. Did you shop on Black Friday? Yes or No? No way, not in stores, but some online.

4. Christmas Tree up in November? Yes or No? OH YES!!! You may remember last year, we didn't get into our new house until mid December so the first thing I did was put up the tree. This year it went up Nov. 10th!

5. Do you get Holiday ideas from Pinterest? Yes or No? Sure do, remember my cabinet wreaths POST?
Cabinets lit at night

6. Christmas Glam or Ugly Sweater? Do not like Ugly Sweaters but always have a little glammy-ness on Christmas Eve. And I really like Graphic sweaters and tees.

 2017 (yes, I put on a cardigan, lol)

My new Merry Sweater

7. Stocking Stuffers: Wrapped or Unwrapped? Mostly unwrapped as this is how my parents did it as "Santa" as if Santa just filled it up with unwrapped treasures. 

8. Traditional or Modern Christmas Songs? Both Baby!!! I'd say I am way more traditional but some of the modern ones are fun!

9. Fruitcake? Yes or No? Oh NO WAY!!!

10. Is your Christmas Shopping Finished? Yes or No? 3/4 done. BUT nowhere near done wrapping.

11. Is there Snow in December where you live? Yep! Not today as we got warmth and rain but more headed this week. It's stunning.

12. Classic Show: A Charlie Brown Christmas or Rudolph? Rudolph all the way! Classic all the Way!

and BONUS...admiring my favorite ornament which still goes on my mom's tree today..the blonde angel! 
 
She's tattered but she is still precious more than 4 decades later!

ENJOY THIS HOLIDAY SEASON SWEET FRIENDS!!

FRIDAY FAVORITES...GIFTS & GOINGS ON

Happy Friday and I bet you all have happy hearts and stuffed bellies. Lots of goodness today. Some life happenings and sweet gift ideas. Tuesday, I brought you some fantastic AMAZON fashion gift ideas. Today just throwing a few more ideas your way but some recent fun as well. 

1. Chicago
As you may know, Mr. Nine and I went to Chicago for an overnight on Sunday. We walked around town, ate at Shake Shack, went to the Christkindlemart and had some warm Glühwein, took a nap and met friends for the Chicago Bears game, it was a chilly late night but so fun! The next morning, we had our favorite breakfast at West Egg and heading home so Mr. Nine could get to the office. Here are some highlights. 





2. MERRY Sweater
Oh how I feel so festive in this Merry Sweater. It will be great for lounging and for wearing out.
