Winter beach

We had the opportunity to enjoy a couple days at the beach house. It was so pretty driving downtown with the hanging Christmas lights over the road. In all my years, I don't think I have EVER been to Ocean City in December to see the decorations. Made it all look so pretty! We enjoyed a nice time together as a family. Savoring all these moments as they are far and few between these days! (Only downfall - trying to find places open for breakfast, lunch, and supper, lol).


Morgan wanted to catch a sunrise so the pup and I joined her. Successful one morning, not so great the second. (boo hiss)








Nice walk on the boardwalk

Trees decorated for special causes on the beach

This one was for 'save the turtles'

and this one was in support of our miliary and law enforcement



Cape May visit!

Xmas Eve

Family shot after returning home from Christmas eve mass. 


How many photos does it take for these two to be serious?! haha



Seafood supper time! Yum! Thanks Dad!!


TikTok inspired attempts...

Put whip cream on you hand - slap your arm and make the whip cream land in your mouth. 

And more attempts at TikTok stunts...





Dog and kid photo time







Last picture before heading upstairs in our Christmas jammies!

Our neighborhood always looks so beautiful with the luminaires out!

Although it was like pulling teeth I begged each of my children to pick one Christmas picture book to read with me... the begrudgingly agreed...


Final book of the evening... the one we read together every single year.
Merry Christmas Eve night to all!
