My View: Dancing Children and a Christmas Tree


I'm sitting in the corner of our home on a giant love seat, near the fireplace,  a perfect place to get cozy and watch my family as I write. The Christmas Holiday Classics are playing in the background the husband relaxing on the couch and the girls are playing well Lexi is bouncing off walls and Evalyn is dancing. I love the way she dances! Bends her knees, sways her head from side to side...makes me smile. Oh and I can't forget about Emma she stays close to the fire and watches right along with me. Even in all the chaos that my house is in, tonight I feel content and at peace.

Today was the day we decorated the tree. This is probably my most favorite, the memories that come with each ornament take me back to years filled with so much joy. There is no theme or color scheme to our Christmas tree its a collaboration of years and years of memories. Evalyn loves the lights and she's finding the fun in pulling off the ornaments she can reach. I have to say that decorating the tree really sets the mood for the christmas spirit. I think it gets us all excited for season. Just walking in the door and smelling the sweet aroma of pine makes me all warm inside.

Here's a Christmas memory from last year. It's crazy that it has been a whole year and just how much my little miss Evalyn has grown. What a great gift she is!
