Best first Christmas ever

Authors: Kim @ NewlyWoodwards

I like to exclaim that every single Christmas was the "BEST CHRISTMAS EVER." And this one was no exception.

Except, for real this time. THIS WAS THE BEST CHRISTMAS EVER!

No, seriously.

Holidays, they tend to lose their luster as you get older. Is it just me? I love celebrating Christmas, but I think the problem is that...

A tale of two Santas

Authors: Kim @ NewlyWoodwards

I thought it would be a good...
