I Love Those J-I-N-G-L-E BELLS!

We all received the sweetest gifts from our nanny yesterday - totally thoughtful and original. She made the kids fleece tie-blankets in non-traditional colors/patterns, which I love! And she created a beautiful framed monogram with pics of the us and kids in the background.

We are getting set to head north to see all of the family for the holidays. I think we will be hitting 6 houses in 3 days. It will be a change for us to not stay "up" or "out" until the wee hours on Christmas Eve. But it is SO nice for everyone to sleep in their own beds and start fresh the next morning.
