Happy December 12th! I am SO excited to begin counting down the 12 days of Christmas!
You guys have been asking me left and right if I’d be holding another 12 Days of Christmas vlogging series this year. While I’d love to, all we’re REALLY doing over here is cuddling a newborn. But!

My favorite memory from the year was finding out w a we are expecting our second child in March of 2018 and it’s a girl!!
I already follow you on Instagram and Facebook :) My favorite memory of 2017 is my oldest son getting hired where I work. He’s in training, and it’s a very extensive training process so, hoping my favorite memory of 2018 will be that he made it through the process! Although, pretty sure my favorite for next year will be a trip to CO. 2017 was pretty boring. :)
Best memory of 2017 was taking my daughters to Disney in February. My oldest was a few weeks shy of 3, and just seeing it all through her eyes (especially when she met Belle!) made it so amazing!
My favorite memory from this year is a compilation of moments- seeing my daughter happy and surrounded by friends. She’s always wanted lots of friends and it happened for her this past year. We just moved again(we are military) and now she has to start all over again. But this past year has been golden for us.
My favorite memory is that we bought our first house! The process was actually horrendous but I love being able to decorate and change things to whatever *we* want them to be instead of having to stick with a landlord’s boring beige walls :)
My favorite memory this year was getting to spend an entire week on the shores of Lake Michigan with my family!
Pre-ordered the new book! Can’t wait!!
Favorite memory of 2017 was getting engaged!!!
My favorite memory of 2017 was playing outside with my boys in the fall. They’re 3 and 1 and when that cool air hit, I don’t know if it was their ages or what but things just started seeming noticeably easier. We spent a lot of time outside in puddles, mud, and sticks.
Favorite 2017 memory….Our sweet new grandson was born in November – he had a heart condition that was unknown so he was rushed to children’s and had heart surgery at 4 days old (hang with me this story has a good ending!) surgery went well and after being told repeteadly that 2 weeks is standard recovery they got to go home in FOUR DAYS in time for thanksgiving! Our blended family had an opportunity to spend time together and grow – putting the past behind us and hopefully leaving it’s there!
BLESSED this year
My favorite memory was vacationing with my husband for the first time without the kiddos! We missed them, but mommy and daddy needed some time!
My son getting married was my best memory of 2017! Merry Christmas!!

My favorite memories are welcoming my son into the world and our family trip to Hawaii.

Have been following you on the Instas and FBs for always, because where else would I find the best and most delicious recipes to recreate? My favorite memory from 2017 has been the most best day ever for my wedding on 11.04.17. Such a joy to plan, and even better to host all of our friends and family in one room. I had the biggest smile on my face the entire day, danced the night away, and woke up the next morning sore, happy, and next to the most wonderful man – and maybe a little hungover? HA!
Favorite memory was just being able to finally take a family vacation after many years without one.
my favourite memory of this year might be when my partner took me on a trip to bruges for my birthday! or maybe when we celebrated his birthday with family and a giant cake….
My favorite memory of 2017 was when my husband and I got to vacate to Santorini, Greece. We don’t get to Vacation often, and we hardly ever ever ever get to vacation just the two of us. It. Was. A. Dream. I will never forget it, and I will cherish it forever!
My favorite memory was my summer trip with my family. 2 weeks traveling and touring the east coast. So many good memories
My favorite memory was seeing my husband complete on Jeopardy and visiting Joshua Tree with friends! <3
This was easy as I already like you on all Social Media and I have already pre-ordered The Pretty Dish! My favorite memory of 2017 was taking my dog to a frisbee class. We knew she was already interested in the frisbee but she was the star of the class and now can do simple tricks that look hard and when people are walking by they stop to applaud her skills!
While this year has been very hard on both my husband and I with 4 very close people to us passing away, 2017 will still be the year we got married! My favorite memory was being able to spend our wedding day with all of our amazing friends and family, some of which are no longer here. It was a great day though, filled with excitement, beauty, love and the greatest commitment I’ve ever made, oh and of course, delicious food (I made sure of it!)!
PS. Pre-ordered The Pretty Dish the first day it was up on Amazon!
My favorite memory of 2017 is spending a long weekend in Maine for my oldest friend’s wedding! It was perfect in every way. <3
