    I'm so excited for Christmas this year! Last year, it melted my heart when they came downstairs and saw all their presents from Santa. The wonderment is priceless. This week, I just introduced the girls to a certain boy band's holiday album. Yep. Ryan didn't appreciate as much, so we turned it to the "Hallmark Holiday Favorites" channel on Pandora. We're getting Ryan (e.g. Mister Grinch) in the mood y'all!

    This year, Conrad will be celebrating his FIRST Christmas! I am beyond excited. As our family tradition, each of us always get a Christmas ornament. Our tradition first started when Ryan and I were dating and we would get EACH OTHER an ornament that reminded one another about each of us. Somehow, it would end up being outdoors related. Slowly, it evolved into getting ourselves one that represented our year. For this year, I was really excited to shop for Conrad's ornament because it would be his first ornament EVER.

    Posing of course. Little sister is Anna, big sister is Elsa. Could this not be more perfect or what?

    The girls loved putting ornaments on the tree:

    I got Olaf in there too, just for kicks:

    This was the picture I landed on for little Conrad's Hallmark ornament:

    What I also wanted to do this year (now that our family is complete) was another tradition with the kids. And you could do it too! This is a very FUN ornament tutorial that involves the whole family. Its what I'm calling the "Kissing Reindeer Thumbprint Ornament".

    Let it dry for a few hours. Then, draw the nose, smile, eyes, antlers, and legs. Add name of each person's thumbprint.

    Cut it out and put it into the ornament. You can put fun holiday floral around the ornament as well to add flare.

    Now, you'll have everyone's thumbs for this year forever engraved on an ornament! What a fun tradition, right?

      How fun! I love that you incorporated homemade/handmade with Hallmark ornaments and both mean something significant to you! Such a fabulous way to showcase that and congrats on all of your littles - they are darling! 😉 #client
