All this Christmas decor has got me in my FEELIESSSSS.

The tree is up, ornaments are being ripped off by my toddler & stockings are hung on top of bookshelves so she doesn’t yank those down, too.

Tis’ the season!

Our entire neighborhood is like next level about Christmas lights. Every street is LIT, literally, figuratively, etc. We, of course, don’t partake because I am too cheap to spend money on Christmas lights & simply won’t do it until Lou is old enough to ask why we’re the only house in the neighborhood without them. I’m also too cheap to do more decor than just your standard tree and stockings. Especially in the south, I feel like most families bring out BOXES of Christmas decor and every corner is covered in nutcrackers. I ~love~ that for them, but it just can’t be me. Y’all already know I can’t have too much stuff around me &, I’ll say it louder for the people in the back, I’m cheap. I turned to Garr the other night & asked him if he wished I was the kind of person who decorated more for the changing seasons. Luckily, I married a man who gets me & he said, “No, because that’s more crap I have to deal with lugging around.”

Wedded bliss!
