It’s Sunday night and we’ve had a quiet, lazy day heading into Christmas Eve tomorrow. And it’s been lovely. We had our own little Christmas celebration last night – delicious meal, festive-looking crantinis and our gift opening. That left us with today to enjoy our new gifts, wrap presents for the family Christmas events coming up this week, get some baking done and even sneak in a nap. As I said, lovely.

And tonight as I sit in front of the TV happily watching (for the zillionth time) The Sound of Music, I realize there are lots of little Christmasy things from today that I love. Random little Christmasy things. Enjoy – and I hope you have a wonderful holiday!
