Home for the Holidays

It seems like so long since my last post! Lot's going on with Christmas just around the corner. Last week I got the news that my mom would not be joining us for Christmas. The tickets are insanely expensive this time of year and it just doesn't make sense to come now. Hopefully next month. I've accepted it, but not after crying like a baby because I wouldn't be with my mom for the first time in my life on Christmas. Yes, I am a cry baby.

The good news is that I got a brand new "fake" tree this year and I love it so much more than our last one! My mom also sent me my stocking and I got my husband and "fur baby" Rocky stockings too! It's time to start our own traditions and I am so excited to see how much the holiday grows in our home. :)

With all the warm and fuzzies that the holidays bring I was super excited when I found out my custom order from DefineBliss is on it's way! Back in October I entered a giveaway over at Katie's Camo-Colored Chaos and I won! I began emailing with Jessica at DefineBliss and she came up with the most beautiful custom order for our family! I should have it this weekend and I can't wait! This was my first time ordering something from Etsy and Jessica made the process so smooth and effortless. I got my husband in on it and we agreed on the font, color, and placement of everything! I definitely recommend her for all your custom needs! She's awesome!

 

This baby will be hanging right above our TV in the center of our little home. :)

 

 

After a little over a year in this tiny apartment of ours, it's really starting to feel like a home. It's custom pieces like this along with lots of love and memories. :)

 

 

I hope you all have a great weekend!
