be happy for this moment.

Christmas, children, is not a date. It is a state of mind.

Here are some pictures from our lovely Christmas long weekend!

Nick's sister Leah came into town for Christmas and met us along with my old friend Britt for dinner on Sunday night.

My mom and I took Nick and Leah out to St. Armand's Circle in Sarasota for
lunch on Christmas Eve.

On pretty St. Armand's Circle.
