'tis the season

it's beginning to look a lot like christmas!

.....and remy has been helping me decorate.

she fit under that tree last year.  she's getting to be a big girly.

in other news...

jake and i are spending christmas in new york!  my lovely momma and step dad have offered to fly us out and we just couldn't pass that up!  i'm so excited to spend some much needed time with my mom, sister and niece!!  we may try to squeeze in a broadway show [much to jake's dismay].  i haven't spent christmas with my mom in so long...and, let's face it...sometimes a girl just needs her mom.  yay!

what's better?
