Jesus is the reason for the season....

Poor little angel is simply frozen!
These are the gates in front of our courtyard, so pretty in the snow......
I've had this hat for years, the label inside says "Nordstrom Best". Tucking in some velvet holly makes it perfect for Christmas, don't you think?
I have to admit after seeing everyone's lovely decor for the blog party Christmas, I was ashamed to realize that I hadn't shown a photo of our nativity. We bought this a few years ago and this year I found the perfect spot for it, in our family room.
We bring it out every year, and our 8yo dd loves it!
Our snow finally started to melt today and hopefully I can get out this weekend to get some last minute gifts. This has been a tough week with our weather being so very strange and unpredictable. I've been without a car, by choice, all week so dh could drive the safer car to work.
I'm looking forward to going out tomorrow, been inside a bit too much.
Wish me luck!

Love the post - we all need that reminder as we hustle and bustle to slow down and remember what the day is all about. We planned on going to Melanie's shop on Saturday but the weather had a differnt plan. Merry Christmas!
