HOLIDAY CARDS

I'm still in shock that the Christmas season is already here!  It has been so fun decorating this year for the holidays and seeing Nixon's face as we add new decorations to our collection.  One of the first things that we did to get into the holiday spirit was taking family photos a couple months ago.  We love being able to send out Christmas Cards each year and the earlier I can  prep for that, the better.  My awesome sister Mckenna took us up to the mountains and captured fun moments with us as a little family.  I was so excited to pick out a photo and wanted to hurry and find the best Christmas Card to go with it.  I went on to Minted where they countless options of holiday cards that made it so hard to choose! I was able to customize the options to exactly what I wanted.  One of the features I love with Minted is that they will send you samples of the different paper types so you know exactly the quality you are getting.  I will never order my cards anywhere else because they truly do give you only the best! Once I placed my order, I was shocked with how fast it came .  They had all my cards and envelopes packaged so beautifully.  Thank you Minted for sending me the most gorgeous Christmas Cards that I can't wait to share with my family and friends!

Recently we had Kenna Wilson Photography come do an in-home photo shoot of our little family. It was so fun to just be in the comfort of our house while she captured candid moments of us together.  What I loved about this photoshoot was that Kenna was so quick with capturing just what she needed too before Nixon would get too out of control. It's been so fun to see Nixon's personality develop as he gets older and I just want to have EVERY SINGLE moment captured so I never forget!!!

This past week we celebrated our Nixon's first birthday which I am still in shock about!  It is so crazy to me that this time last year, he had just joined our lives as we welcomed him into this world. I don't even know where to begin when it comes to talking about how amazing this year has been with our baby boy.  We look at life with a whole new meaning and every decision we make is based around what will be best for Nixon, and for how we will be raising him.  Being a mom to Nixon has been the greatest thing in the world and I wouldn't change it for anything! 

Earlier this year I knew I wanted to have Nixon's first birthday be cactus themed.  In his nursery, he has a cactus accent wall so he has had no other choice but to love cacti from the beginning! I can't thank everyone enough who helped make Nixon's party so special! And such a huge thanks to my sister Mckenna for being our photographer!
