Sunday morning was full of wrapped gifts everywhere, and a bunch of my Halle Handmade gift tags in action...
Halle got into the festive spirit and wore her brand new Christmas jammies from her Auntie Beth for the occasion...
B's Mom also had a little tiny Charlie Brown tree to decorate and Halle got involved in the fun too...
There were lots of gifts opened and we just had a great day relaxing around the house with both sets of parents. It was especially fun that Halle was really getting the hand of opening her presents. I know we'll have a ton of fun with her when Christmas Day finally rolls around.
That evening we continues a fun little tradition that we started, when B and I brought Halle to La Salette (this is where he popped the question). We made sure Halle was bundled up nice and warm (I honestly forgot how cold it gets back east in the winter... brrrrr), grabbed some hot chocolate and then soaked up all of the gorgeous lights...
That last photo was taken right after B asked me to marry him - notice me flashing my bling. We grabbed a young couple walking past and got the girl to snap this little family photo. I love it, and I'll probably have to display it at our wedding... whenever that may be!
So there you have it, just a small glimpse into how we celebrated Christmas a month early. It was just a really great time, and I'm so happy I got to see my folks before the holidays, and share the news of our engagement with them in person. We have a busy month ahead, but I'll pop in whenever I can, whenever I have something worth sharing!
What have you been up to getting ready for Christmas / The Holidays?
The little Charlie Brown tree is just Halle's size, so sweet! And congratulations on the engagement (somehow I missed that post)!
