Today is kind of a weird day. Usually on Christmas Eve, I’m scrambling to finish packing or waking up in Denver because my flight the night before had been canceled due to weather. Oh, the adventures of traveling during the holidays, and I’ve been doing it for 24 years. But, on this my 25th year I am snuggled up on the couch with my puppy catching up on editing and spending my very first Christmas in California.

So far, it’s weird. Not bad, not good, but very different.

I just wanted to take a couple minutes at the start of this week, before the hustle and bustle of Christmas Day takes over to thank everyone who has been a part of my business and my life this year. My blog readers and commenters, the amazing couples and families that have invited me to share in the moments of their lives this year. I have been so so so blessed by all of you.

Because no blog is complete without a picture, here is a photo of my FAVORITE part of this season. May your Christmas be blessed!
