Hi sweet friends! Oh, how I've missed y'all! I have been pretty disconnected from the blog world for the past almost-week. Though soaking in the family time has been an absolute joy and blessing...I've missed y'all! So I'm back with a little something up my sleeve...
Every once in a while, I want to fill y'all in on life before the blog. :)
Let's start simply (and merrily) with our Christmas card from last year! ...Because don't you remember that Christmas cards are one of my moooossstttt faaavvooorrriiittteee parts of Christmas?!?
Without further ado, Merry Christmas (AND HAPPY DECEMBER!) from the Houstons [last year].

I still adore it. And I love that TinyTina puprise (no, that's not a spelling error ;)) on the back!
Two traditions I have with Christmas cards...
1. I make our own. From "scratch!" Even growing up, I loved the task of creating the family card.
2. Frame them! And display them at Christmastime year after year (got this one from my mama!).
Do y'all have any Christmas card traditions?! Fill me in!
And don't forget to link up with us Tuesday for the FINAL installment in our linkup series...! EEEEE! I can hardly wait!!! <$100 gifts for anyone! Everything you need to know is here!
