#LowerChristmas2016

Merry Christmas Eve! I just wanted to pop-in to share a few photos of our Christmas celebration shenanigans this year.

{We went to WildLights again at the Zoo this year and it was so fun! Eloise was much more into the lights this year though she was disappointed that we couldn’t see any animals, especially the tigers!}

{I LOVE photos in front of Christmas trees and was so excited when I knew this bump would be around for Christmastime this year!}

{And before we decorated the tree, Eloise played in all of the lights!}

{If you know me, you may know that one of my mama dreams was to have matching family Christmas jammies! Seriously. And I am so lucky that Aaron is such a good sport about it. Plus, Eloise is at the age that she LOVES to match mama – can this last forever?}

{And finally, I wanted to share our new fireplace that Aaron has been building! I know he wants to do a more in-depth post about the actual design and building process, but I wanted to share our Christmas mantle this year. We haven’t had a mantle since we lived in our old townhouse, so I have been dying to have one to decorate and hang stockings from. I don’t love TVs mounted above fireplaces and in an ideal world we wouldn’t either, but it didn’t make sense to change the entire layout of the living room at this point. So Aaron built the fireplace to house all of our electronic equipment (all of the front panels open up) which is so fun.}

We hope you have a very Merry Christmas and joyous holiday season!

And you can find our matching Hanna Andersson jammies here! Note: Aaron is wearing the adult long johns and I am wearing the kids long johns.
