We look a bit like something you'd hang on a wall or wrap around a gift. It's not every day you can wear red and green without people wondering if you've permanently joined ranks with Buddy the Elf. I couldn't resist at least one outfit (okay, maybe a few more), that were overtly Christmas-y. 'Tis the Season.
We wore these outfits to church on Sunday. I might have begged Benjamin to wear something other than a faded tee shirt and hole-y shorts that looked like he'd slept in them, and Crocs with wall paint from when we painted Jax's nursery (before he was born). I thought he did well selecting his outfit to match us.
As much as I care about what Jax and I are wearing on a given day, Benjamin could equally care less. Perhaps that's why I was attracted to him - so I could reform his wardrobe.
Jax's pants were a thrift-store steal. Polo Ralph Lauren corduroys in
immaculate condition. And I got them on half-off day so I think they
cost a buck fifty. His irresistible socks were a gift.
We are happy and merry and bright this time of year. Excited to be finding steals for ones we love. Joyful to be investing some of our Christmas funds for those without. Happily looking forward to celebrating with family and friends.
