Well the old saying, "Time waits on NO ONE" is surely true! It was January 2019 just last week it seemed and here it is a year later. I hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas season and that your New Year has gotten off to a good beginning for you. We surely had a wonderful holiday season. I have so many pictures but will share just a few of my favorites.
We love our PJ's and at Christmas us girls and the grands all wear our PJ's. I had a friend do the design on our shirts for us all and they turned out so adorable. But I am huge SUCKER for Red trucks!
These kiddos bring me so much joy. Every year I buy the kids matching PJ's and sometimes it has been hard to get them all to match with so many different sizes. But once again, it all worked out.
I enjoyed my tablescape this season. Hated to put it all away. No worries though...I've already started on another tablescape. LOL!
Yes I do love me a little red truck.
Even my grandbabies had a little Christmas tablescape.
Speaking of red trucks...
I got another Red Truck to play with for Christmas. LOVE IT!
We celebrate Christmas Eve at my FIL home and have Santa come with gifts for the kids. It is so much fun to watch the little ones as their faces light up when they see him coming.
Even us BIG kids love Santa.
Even us BIG kids love Santa.
One of the favs of the kids was the Cocoa bar.
Marshmallows went into the larger bowl and chocolate chips in the smaller bowl.
And did I ever make some good, rich, creamy cocoa! Remember when I shared about having Belgium hot chocolate in NYC while the kids ice skated? That was the best hot chocolate ever. So I decided to make our family some Belgium hot chocolate.
It was soooooo good! I found a recipe and I tweaked it just a tad and well....it was a winner for us all!
We made so many wonderful memories during the Christmas season. We ended 2019 with our children and grandchildren with a big pot of chili, hot dogs, all the fixings along with roasting s'mores. God has been so good to us and continually amazes me with His love, mercy and grace. So undeserving but yet...HE STILL LOVES US!
We wish you all a very blessed and wonderful New Year. May you be blessed more than you could ever imagine.
Hugs and blessings, Cindy
I always enjoy visiting your family through your pictures! Happy New Year dear friend.

Awe, thank you Christine. We sure have fun and we love our PJ'S.
DeleteI just love those matching pj's, Cindy!! You and your family sure have fun together, and I love seeing the pictures and reading your posts. Happy New Year, my friend!
ReplyDeleteThank you Kitty. I have really enjoyed mine for sure. I do not like running the heater at night...I get too hot...but since we have had a few cold night here in Florida, those flannel pj pants has sure been nice.
DeleteHappy New Year Cindy and family! I loved all your photos celebrating the most wonderful time of the year! Wishing you health and joy for 2020❤️
ReplyDeleteThank you Pam.

ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Susie.

ReplyDeleteThanks Vee, Yes, mam, I will send you the recipe.
DeleteHappy New Year! I love how your personalized pj's turned out! Those shirts are right up my alley! It sounds like you had a most wonderful holiday season full of family, food and fun! Just the way it should be!

DeleteHi Cindy,
ReplyDeleteYou are so blessed with this beautiful family. We all get matching PJ's for Christmas each year too. I agree getting everyone's sizes is a challenge. Yours are adorable. Glad you had such a great Christmas all together. Hoping 2020 will bring you more joy and happiness and great health. I love that your jammies all matched your table setting too! Big New Year's Hugs.
Kris
Thanks Kris.
DeleteWe all get PJ's for Christmas Eve for picture taking too. Our daughter does them for everyone. Your table setting are lovely. Why do you love red trucks. Did you own one at one time? Happy New Year to you also.Praise God from whom all blessings flow! Nancy
ReplyDeleteNever owned a red truck Nancy but I sure would love too! LOL! I just adore the red truck decor.
DeleteYour family knows how to celebrate in a big way together Cindy, what a blessing! That hot cocoa sure sounded yummy! I love how you gift the kids each year with a pair of matching pajamas, that is so much fun! What a cute design you chose, and I love how your tablescape, well all your decor was themed to match! Just so much fun! Many blessings to you, sweet friend!
ReplyDeleteThanks Marilyn.
DeleteI love the pj's, love the tablescape, the dishes and the black check. How lovely! I just know that you and yours have a good time every time you are together. Happiest of new years!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lea.
DeleteI love your family pictures. What a beautiful family. Everyone looks happy and like they are having a ball. LOVE that red truck with the tree- what a perfect gift!
ReplyDeleteI always do the pjs for the kids (big and little, too). Lately, Target has been doing family pjs and on the Black Friday weekend-they were $5! They are usually $29! Crazy and I was able to get all the sizes I needed (12 pair). lol
Hope you have a great Sunday- xo Diana
Girl I bought 6 pair and 4 tops! I need to wait till Black Friday I guess to hunt. I did find the pj bottoms in the right sizes at Target. Found the tops elsewhere and then had the logo put on them. Was an easy fix but really wished I could have found the whole sets in the sizes I needed. Thinking ahead now! LOL!
DeleteThis is SUCH A CHEERY POST, Cindy! Everybody looks fabulous, the food delicious, and like you, I love your table scape!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! Thanks for sharing your family fun with us.
Happy New Year.
DeleteHappy New Year, Cindy!
ReplyDeleteLove your holiday PJS, tablescape (the black plaid looks great!), and cocoa bar (now you've got me craving Belgium hot chocolate!).
I took down my Christmas stuff yesterday. But I'm looking forward to decorating for winter.
Thanks for the visit. For some odd reason, I didn't receive an e-mail notification. Maybe Blogger has changed again...
Blogger can sure be CRAZY at times. I have one blogging friend that I NEVER get a notification from and yet I am suppose too.
DeleteYou are surrounded by such a beautiful family! Love the pyjamas. Best wishes for the new year.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kelly.
DeleteHappy 2020, dear Friend. Hope your year is full of blessings! Love you! 💜
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you too.
DeleteOh how I love this post....and YOU! I just have to tell you how sorry I am for just now commenting. Among other things, I have not been able to be on the internet (except for my phone...and then limited). I loved seeing all your "jammy" pictures...you have such a beautiful family! And yes, what is it about that red truck at Christmastime? I pray you and your family have a most blessed 2020, my dear friend! Sending New Years Hugs & Blessings!
ReplyDeleteAwe thanks so much my friend. Girl...when we have computer/internet issues it's really the pits! Yes, those red trucks are the cutest ever!
DeleteA picture perfect Christmas, Cindy. I enjoyed the happy smiles.

Thank you Amailia. Happy 2020.
DeleteIt looks like you had a wonderful Christmas. We split ours between our daughter's home on Christmas Eve and our son's home on Christmas Day. I loved the matching pj's. We've talked about doing that next year with our kids and grands all together. What fun!
ReplyDelete~Adrienne~
Oh the PJ's is the way to go. Especially for the kids. They are ready for bed after all the fun, food and gifts.
