Well folks, Christmas is in high swing for Brandon and me!
We arrived at my MIL2B's (mother-in-law to be) house Friday evening after Brandon got off work. We spent the day Saturday baby sitting Benjamin and Sara (Brandon's niece and nephew)--they were both sick with colds so we lounged around, napped and watched 'Madagascar'--not too bad of a Saturday if you ask me! Then, on Saturday evening, Brandon's mom and sister surprised me by taking me out for a surprise bachelorette party! We had a wonderful time!

I'm so excited to finally be getting a sister--love her!! |

My wonderful MIL2B and Me! |

Shots with the girls! |
Yesterday, we celebrated Christmas with Brandon's mom, sister, brother-in-law, nephew and niece--we ate, talked, ate, opened presents, ate, slept and ate some more--I probably won't fit into my wedding dress but hey, you only live once.. right?

Ninjabread cookies! These were so fun to make--I'll have to write up a post about them for later this week! |
|
Baby Sara and her new headband from Auntie Annie (I got it from Kendra at A Proverbs 31 Wife--she has such cute headbands for babies and little girls, I definitely recommend checking her out!). |
|
Nancy gave both of the guys a covered fire pit--I can't wait until we have a backyard so can use ours! |
I'm sad that our Christmas is half over now, but I look forward to heading home to Colorado next weekend to celebrate with my family. Does anyone else have a hard time believing that Christmas is already here? I've always been told that time goes by faster and faster the older you get--I'm 22 and time is already flying by so I hate to think of how fast it'll go 10, 20, or 50 years from now!
And since Christmas is upon us, that means the new year is fast approaching--and we want to add a little extra sparkle to your 2013! So, Kristine from Heart Shaped Sweat, Tricia from Mama Marchand's Nest and I are hosting a 'Beautiful New Year, Beautiful You' giveaway! We are giving away goodies that will keep your skin soft and glowing, and keep your ears looking beautiful all the way through 2013 :)

Hey girl! New follower...thanks for cohosting the awesome giveaway! Looking forward to some great recipes from you... because I seriously need to get out of my "cereal for breakfast, lunch, and dinner" routine before my little girl starts on solids. Lol! :)

That would be such a great way to pamper myself during this busy season. My best beauty tip is plenty of sleep and water. Great Giveaway.
