HomeGirl by Design
Farewell, 2025! Thanks for the happy, even during the hard stuff; for the clarity amidst uncertainty, and for the growth throughout all the change. Looking forward to 2026 with open arms. 🤗🥳 Happiest New Year, HomeGirls! It's gonna be a good one.
Until this year, we've had just one Christmas tree - a freshly cut tree from the farm. We love the tradition - the day after Thanksgiving, fun family time hunting for just the perfect one. Some years we find it, some years we don't...but we have learned that any tree becomes perfect once it's decorated with love.
These ornaments each tell our story: some of our childhood, some of our kids' younger years. Some handmade gifts, some remembrances of our travels. Some exchanged at parties with friends, others chosen just because they made us smile. All of them representations of where we have been and happy times shared.
While I do love our new faux tree, too, the memories made and relived each year in the real one will always be my favorite ❤️.
Does your family do real, faux, or both? Let me know below 🎄.
