His and Her Christmas

Fact: 
His birthday is on Christmas Eve.
Her name, Natalie, means Christmas.
We were meant for each other... and the holidays!  Here's a recap of our holly jolly season.


Natalie squared plus Jackson on the train at the Ogden lights.  Too bad this Natalie derailed the whole train when she tried to take a peek at Jackson's excited face.  My bad! I'll lay off a little on the cocoa and cookies next year, promise!


  Birthday boy and his mama.  The Christmas Tree birthday cake has become a staple for him.  I'm pretty sure choirs of angels sang the Hallelujah chorus when I took a bite, but maybe that's just me.
 My mama :) She's a special one, she is.
 This just makes me smile. Enough said.
 Yup.  I call these beautiful people family.

 So simple.  So genius.  The zoo +christmas lights= a wildly festive good time.  They really should allow the tigers more privacy though.  I think a lot of parents were forced to give their children the "birds and the bees" talk that night.  Ho Ho Ho!

I grew up honestly believing that Santa preferred Diet Coke and toffee on Christmas Eve because he got sick of so much milk and cookies. Once I pointed out that Diet Coke and toffee were my Mom's favorite treats, she just replied that Santa had great taste ;)

"God bless us, EVERY one!"
