a tradition continues...

i'm sure i've mentioned before that i'm a very traditional person. i lovelovelove tradition. i love hearing about others peoples traditions, i love current traditions, and i love making new traditions. in a world where things are so unsure and always changing, i find comfort in knowing that when a certain time comes,certain things happen. one of my most favorite recently made traditions is going to A Victorian Country Christmas with my sister-from-another-mister,amanda.

i was going to tell you about all the radical things we did in this post, until i re-read my post about vcc from last year and realized we did the exact same things...one year later.

so i guess there's really nothing else left to share except my favorite pictures we took this year! which works out,because that's always my favorite part anyway :)

if/when i ever decide to get married, i expect my diamond to be at LEAST this big. someone better start saving now.(ignore the date on the picture. i swear that is my current hand and not my hand from almost two years ago)

we wanted to take a picture with santa but it was $20 bucks, which was a little steep for our liking, so we settled for the next best thing-creepster frosty:


you guys probably thought santa and the north pole were ACTUALLY up north, but really, they're just to the right:


crazy cheese face that shows how excited i am to be holding a just purchased,fresh out of the oven fair scone in my hands(by then i had figured out how to turn the stupid date stamp off my camera):


can't WAIT to do this again next year. love your gusts bee elle! thanks for being a part of one of my favorite traditions <3
