Christmas Chaos!

sorry for radio silence all. it's been an insane couple of weeks and i just gave up attempting to keep connected online. 

since we last spoke, hubby turned 30, we enjoyed a great mini break in beautiful breckenridge, co and we enjoyed our first family christmas in chicago.

but before getting to all of that, i wanted to finally share some images from our first annual carretta family xmas party at MIL's a few weeks ago. it was great catching up with family and the decor was outstanding. i couldn't stop snapping photos of it as you'll see. the kids were adorable and hubby even got a mid-party shout out with a birthday cake and song.

i'm also sharing a couple of shots from breck - other than the side effects from the altitude (namely the difficulty to BREATHE) i fell completely in love w/ the place.

enjoy and i hope that your holidays are bright and merry and surrounded by all you love. 

oh, and speaking of photos...i got that fabulous xmas present i mentioned previously - a fancy, new camera. so...you'll clearly be hearing LOTS more about that.

season's greetings all!
