Merry Christmas!

Family

23 Dec

FullSizeRender(1)

I think I’m ready for Christmas.

The Christmas cards we WEREN’T going to do, but then last minute decided we WERE going to do, have been mailed.

I only made a bazillion Christmas cookies yesterday, so hopefully a few actually make it for Santa Claus tomorrow night. Mr. Cotten, I’m looking at you.

All of the presents are wrapped, but only after multiple trips to the store for more Cars-themed wrapping paper. Santa can’t have mismatched wrapping paper. That would have been a tragedy.

I have a rough outline of the Christmas Eve dinner menu and most of the ingredients. I think I can fudge the recipes a little.

Yep. We’re good.

So, until next week my friends. I’ll be basking in all that is Christmas, toasting to another trip around the sun (happy birthday to me!), and eating my weight in everything unhealthy.

I suggest you do the same. May your holidays be merry and bright.

Merry Christmas, to all!
The Cotten Family | Courtny, Samantha & Dorothy

      Thank you! I made it on Tiny Prints, and the photo was taken by my good friend Ardent Owl Photography. 🙂
