Have yourself a married little Christmas

Although this is Jim and I's 6th Christmas together, this one is very special because it is our first Christmas as a married couple. One tradition that I waited to start until now was sending out a family Christmas card and here is our first one!

My cousin Laura took this photo and it was the only one out of literally a hundred where both the dogs were looking at the camera. Who knew taking a photo with your pets could be so difficult.

Happy holidays everyone!

Layering

The weather around here lately has been absolutely nuts. It ranges from 40 to 80 in a matter of days and I'm sure the squirrels are wondering what season it is anyway. 

For me, temperature fluctuation means lots of layers.  During the day it's warm enough just to throw on a light sweater (or chambray or flannel), and at night I need a jacket and a scarf. 

I think the key to layering is to make sure no one piece is too bulky. This daytime look consists of a light tank top and chambray, which still fit nicely under my jacket at night.

I'm leaving next week for my big New York vacation, so get ready for some pictures of fabulous sights and delicious food!
