Is is December 10th already?! When is all the caroling, shopping, stocking stuffing, posing with Santa, baking, card making, ice skating, present wrapping, present delivering, and just plain merriment making going to happen? Fifteen days, people. Get jingling.

And there's so much more! Come over!!

For Jenny...

I'm feeling the need to write out some deep thoughts, as I am known to do every now and again. But first, decos pix for Jenny.

Cuteness

It's always so nice to see old friends doing well. And in this case, old friends with new houses and growing families. We were so happy to meet lil Fiona, Ebe, Baby Justice, and to see friends we haven't yet seen as a Mr. and Mrs. (haha)! Thank you, Jay and Erica, for having us out to your new home. We had a great time!

Best Husband Award

I can not begin to explain the magnitude of my bliss when I came home to a 'winter menu' (as the chef liked to call it), all plated and piping hot. That's not even the end. A glass of my favorite champagne. And no dish duty for me. Compliments to the Chef. And the Husband. And he was doing all of this while the Steelers were playing. Thank God for DVR.

It's in the Air...

As if the Four Seasons is Santa Barbara isn't beautiful enough... try it at the holidays. Imagine my winter-season-loving surprise when we pulled up seaside for a lunch with the gals to behold this wonderland of deeelight!

Gotta Love Her...

How cute is this virtual scrapbook made by our dear friend Ali?! She's always surprising me with new craftiness.. Although it should not surprise me any more. She is so talented, thoughtful and oh so crafty!
Not only that, she cruised by this weekend with a 'little something' for us... a MILLION Sprinkles cupcakes, all the drinks you could ever desire to make it an official 'party', and even treats for Tilly's stocking. So delicious. We love you, Ali & Joe!
