Christmas Prep & Tree Lighting Ceremony

Since Ry had to work Saturday morning, it was nice to have the entire weekend after Thanksgiving at home! I decided to start the Christmas season early by decorating our home and after Ry got home from work, we went and got our tree! We put up our ornaments while sipping on Pinot and after dinner my parents came for dessert and tea, the perfect start to Christmas.

Sunday we went over to my parents and from there we went to the St. Regis for our annual tradition of watching their tree lighting ceremony and reminiscing on where Ry and I got married around this time... FIVE years ago now!

We sipped on hot apple cider and even met my co-worker and his family, such a festive event!

Afterwards we went over to my parents and my mom cooked a delicious meal (Thanksgiving part Two!) Our wish is to slow down this Christmas Season and spend time with the people we love most, so far we haven't slowed down but we are sure planning to see many special people this month :)
