Christmas Photo Diary [2016]
I’m currently crawling out from under mountains of wrapping paper, boxes, and leftover ho ho cake (!!) to pop in and say hi and share some of my favorite Christmas moments with you.
How was your holiday weekend? I hope it was amazing and full of love and laughter. We had so much fun this year… while Joseph still doesn’t understand Santa or presents, he really enjoyed opening them, tearing the paper, and then putting on his best “oh wow!” face after seeing each one. It was such a blast and a tiny glimpse into what a magical holiday it will likely be next year.
I really wanted to do a better job at photos this year (like I had for Thanksgiving!), but opening presents with a roomful of people, helping Joseph, and taking turns holding an infant proved to be a little hectic and not all that conducive to picture taking. BUT! We did get quite a few, and I wanted to share them with you…
I hope that you all had a fabulous holiday! xo
Thankyou for sharing your Christmas pictures.i felt like I was back in time with my boys.20 yrs ago.enjoy them while they are small it goes fast .
Love, Love, Love the pictures of your Precious Boys with you! They are So Adorable! Thank you for sharing them with all of us. Wishing you and your family a Wonderful New Year filled with Good Health and Many Amazing Memories with your two Darlings!! Love and Hugs from Texas
Just a short note to thank you for all the joy that you and your sweet family have provided me over the past year….couple of great recipes too! Even more than the recipes, I LOVE the photos. There are not a great many things that warm the heart these days but your family is surely one. Those little boys are so sweet that I can hardly stand it…makes my heart ache. Thank you for sharing and giving me something sweet to look forward to in the New Year. I hope and pray for all of the very best for you and yours and count on you “being there”.

Thank you for the sweet note, Dianne. xo
Such beautiful pictures. Both of the boys are absolutely adorable! I love reading your posts and made some of your recipes over the holiday. Happy New Year to you and your family, and I look forward to seeing you in 2017!
Beautiful pictures! Hope you had a Merry Christmas, looks like you did :)
Your babies are precious! Looks like your Christmas was as much fun as ours. Our new grand baby was so cute in her 1st Christmas outfit, we absolutely love her dearly. My husband calls her “The Princess”. We look foRward to seeing your two boys grow and develope and as we do our little princess.
Oh, Michelle – your pictures are so precious, as are the subjects!
You certainly have your hands full! What beautiful family photos! Christmas changes when you have little ones to share it with, doesn’t it? Happy new year!
Thanks for sharing your Christmas day photos. Dominic changes every week it seems, and is looking more like Joseph. Makes me miss my 3 young grandsons just a little less. Happy, healthy new year to you and the family.
Great pics! I think my fave is the one of Joseph passed out on the couch w/ his shoes & stocking cap still on. :) The boys are just absolutely adorable!
They are darling! Your pics warmed my heart. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I am off to make your green smoothie to counter act all the sweets I have consumed!
Love all your photos! Looks like you had a merry Christmas! Jospeh and Dominic are handsome little boys! We got 15 inches of snow for a beautiful white Christmas! We got our first Xbox for Christmas and my 11 year old is having a blast with it. Enjoy your babies and have a happy new year! ❤️
Love seeing your sweet boys. They will grow so quickly.
Your boys are so adorable!! It looks like you had a wonderful Christmas. I am so happy for you and your growing family! Thank you for sharing.
Merry Christmas! Your boys are so precious. I have a grandson that is about the same age as your oldest. We live in Texas and they live in Boston. I am looking for a snow sled like the one in your picture. Where did you purchase this.
Thank you so much.

Hi Annesta! My in-laws got that for Joseph – I will ask them and get back to you! :)
Update! My mother-in-law said she got it at a local Marshall’s.
Joseph and Dominic are just so cute! I’m so glad you had a great holiday and that everything went well. Stay warm this week.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful family. Your boys are both adorable, and I love when you post Fridays things as much as I love your recipes. Have a wonderful New Year.
The photos are precious! I don’t know how you did it! My photos are — blah. Too much going on with kids, presents, lighting — inexperience (mine). The boys are darling – and getting shots of them when that actually look at the camera — that’s great. I’m glad you had a wonderful Christmas. Wishing you a Happy New Year.
Beautiful! I hope you get some snow for that toboggan!
Aww, I just love seeing pics of Joseph and Dominic! Dominic sure keeps looking more and more like his big brother! They both are so adorable! Thanks for sharing!
Wunderschön! Merry Christmas!

Love the photos! Hope you are having a wonderful holiday season. We got about a foot of snow on Christmas Eve, making it quite magical. Your boys are darling. Thank you for sharing.
