Friday Things #402
Happy New Year friends!

It feels like itโs been forever since weโve hung out together on a Friday, doesnโt it? I hope that you had a wonderful, healthy, and relaxing holiday season and that the new year is treating you well so far.
The kids had so much fun and we thoroughly enjoyed having the most beautiful white Christmas.
We spent much of the break playing games, coloring, and enjoying lazy days. Weโre back at the daily routine this week, but I thought I would spend this Friday sharing some of my favorite photos from the holidays with you!
We put on pajamas after dinner and drove around looking at Christmas lights ๐
We baked (and decorated) multiple batches of cut-out sugar cookies! ๐
We enjoyed multiple snowfalls โ๏ธ
We took chilly walks and saw forest friends multiple times ๐
We basked in the glow of the Christmas tree from mid-November until a couple of days ago ๐

And weโve enjoyed cozy days and nights near the fireplace every single day ๐ฅ

Beautiful pictures! ย They are growing so fast! ย Precious family!
I am so enjoying watching your children growโthey are beautiful! ย I think you are about the age of our oldest daughter and your children are all around our grandโs ages. We have three childrenโso much fun- and ย our six grandchildren range from 4 months to eight years. ย This makes it extra fun to see all your posts and pictures not to mention the yummy recipes! ย Very best wishes for a happy and healthy 2021 to you and your family!

I cannot get over how sweet your kids look! And the picture with Joseph (I think) kissing the top of your daughters head is too prescious!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Yaer to you!
Thanks for sharing the fabulous pictures with us! Really enjoyed them.
You are a lovely human . Love reading your blog and using your recipes. Great pics of your kids too! I have 5 grands itโs hard to get good pics constant motion . All the best to you in 2021
It looks like everyone had an amazing Christmas! ย I bought that grocery store for my 3 grandkids two Christmasโs ago and its a huge favorite. ย Your children are always so adorable and you are making wonderful memories. Happy New Year and I wish you and your family lots of blessings and good health for 2021!!ย
Your children are all so adorable.ย
I have used so many of your recipes and loved them all. I have told many friends onto your website.
I LOVE THE FRIDAY POST.ย
Your kids are growing so fast. Your Christmas reminds me of ours when we were growing up. Mom used to let us help make cookies too. Those are great memories and your kids will hopefully pass that down to their children. It is so refreshing to see parents that donโt let their children just sit in front of a computer all day long or use them as babysitters. Good on you. Hope you all have a wonderful year.
Christmas is Jesus but itโs also family. Seeing your beautiful family, the wonderful setting you get to live in and all the fun holiday activities makes my heart so happy. God bless you Michelle and may 2021 be full of Him, and may everything you put your hand to this year prosper. ย Thanks for sharing with your BEB fans.
Michelle I enjoyed the pictures!!! The kids looked so busy & having so much fun !!! It was a gorgeous white Christmas!!! I also love seeing the deer in our neighborhood! Thank you for posting !!!!!!! Have a happy day ๐๐๐
Evidence of a WONDERFUL Holiday!
Best wishes for a safe, healthy and happy 2021!
I love your innovative recipes but your Fridayโs are my favorites. ย Your sweet children are so delightful. ย We have ten grandchildren but they could not open the stockings this year.
Your photos always remind me of all the fun we had when our children were so young. Busy, but such fun times. Thanks for sharing.
Looks absolutely perfect! Happy New Year to you and your beautiful family!
OH MY GOD! The grocery store!!!!!! How amazing is that?! They are going to have so much fun!!! I had never seen such a thing!ย

We did too: lotโs of baking and watching cooking show with my kids! And of course, playing with new favorite toys: a set of mini soldiers and a device that tells stories for my younger son, and a keyboard for my older one.
โฆand an Instant Pot for me!!! Looking forward to cooking many recipes from BEB with it!
