Happy Holidays

The build up to Christmas is always huge and then its just over..  Always seems to bring me down a bit, but at least I have a few awesome gifts to keep my spirits high!
   We always go to my mom's for Christmas, momma's girl through and through and this year was a pretty quick trip. As some of you know, my family lives out on an island that requires a ferry to get to, not some much fun with busy holiday work schedules but we were able to get out there Christmas Eve afternoon, but had to jet back the next night. 
   While on the island, along with spending time with the family and doing the Christmas thing, we always make sure to visit family friends, even if just for a few minutes, and boy do they appreciate even that!

This year I got some pretty awesome swag for my kitchen, now that I'm a full fledged wifey!
Check out these adorable aprons my mom made for my sister and I! She just started sewing like a year ago and is seriously making an outfit a day, and her stuff is so stinkin' cute!


   But my favorite gift has to be my BEAUTIFUL Le Creuset Dutch Oven!



   I can't wait to cook up something delicious in this bad boy... Can you say Coq au Vin!?! Yum Yum. Well time to do some more relaxing, I may even be ready to eat again, last night was the annual Prime Rib Dinner with Yorkshire Pudding, Texas Potatoes and all the yummy sides :)
    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
