our christmas card | 2016

i really, really enjoy christmas card season. i usually start to browse the holiday cards on minted towards the end of october; however, deciding on a design takes me usually up until the first week in december. minted is my very favorite way to send holiday cheer to loved ones. 

this year we went with the ‘winter botanicals’ theme cards with a photo of parks in his knitted reindeer hat while picking out our christmas tree… one of my favorite traditions of all. 

(i don’t know why there are lines over our names… but minted is so wonderful that i am looking over it) 

under the photo of parks we wrote 

so this is love.

their free address assistant might just be my favorite part

they know the way to this momma’s heart – they are printed so beautifully and save so much time

the greatest gift of all 

a few from thanksgiving day 

because we are most thankful for this boy in 2016

before we were off to meet the big guy

another shot with santa claus 

awe, that sweet face looks so pitiful 

on our road trip yesterday 

we held hands lots

the weather was perfect, we picked up our favorite treats (coffees, hot tamales, sour patch kids, and doritos) and rocked out to kenny and dolly christmas. it took us exactly eight hours- not bad at all. 

so happy to be in cincinnati with my brother and sister/her awesome husband. we plan to make some memories today. after all, isn’t that what it’s all about?

only three more sleeps until christmas!
