Merry Christmas Eve! Today is one of my favorite days of the year. There is a sense of magic in the air and it seems like everyone you meet is in a happy mood.
It’s so nice to be in my hometown for the Holidays. My entire family is here for Christmas and it’s so special to be back in the same house with all of those I love.
One of our favorite Christmas Eve traditions is going to church as a family. I love dressing up for church and the red dress I’m wearing is perfect for the holiday season! Going to church together is something that I look forward to every year and I’m so excited to have Chase join us in this tradition! Christmas hymns are so beautiful and there is something so magical about an entire congregation singing them together.
After we attend church, the baking/cooking begins! This year my mom has a variety of delicious things she is making. My all time favorite dish she makes are her baked beans! (Definitely a Southern staple!) After the cooking is underway and we are ready for a break, my family will gather and watch a Christmas movie together.
I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas! I hope you’re spending time with those you love and are taking a (much needed) break to enjoy the season!
Much love!
