Our Christmas Card!

Merry Christmas, everyone!! :) I truly wish peace and joy to every one of you this holiday season. Thank you all so much for reading this year. I cherish each and every one of your comments! :) I hope you all have a safe and happy holiday.
Thanks to my sweetie Kevin for getting the tree out of the attic and setting it up for us! He even vacuumed up all the needles afterward. :D

Our tree, before popping into light speed:

Using a star filter:

Merry Christmas, everyone!! :)
P.S. I really want to see your Christmas card too! :D If you have yours on your blog, will you leave me a link in the comments? :D
Finally! A new recipe!
In honor of my birthday (which was yesterday :D) I decided it was high time to post a new recipe! And since it’s for my birthday and all, it’s not just any recipe… It’s The Best Chocolate Cake Recipe Ever!! This cake is sooo moist and rich and mouth-watering… Perfect for any occasion. :D

The Best Chocolate Cake Ever! Click. Me. Now. :D
But since it was *my* birthday… I didn’t have to make a cake. Kevin made one for me! :D Kevin took the day off work and I slept in… I woke up to the smell of fresh birthday cake! And a hubby with frosting all over his face! Hehe

Yes, he iced & decorated it himself! Doesn’t it look awesome? Much better than anything I’ve ever done.. LOL. We spent the rest of the day lounging around the house and eating cake. A very good birthday!! :D
Over Thanksgiving I got the chance to take some family pics… This of Kevin’s cousin is my new favorite:

Now that Thanksgiving and my birthday are over, it’s officially Christmas season! To celebrate, I made a new Christmas blog theme from Crystal Wilkerson’s digital scrapbook kit, The Vintage Candy Cane Collection. Her kit includes an alpha made from one of my Free Scrapbook Fonts, My Own Topher! :)
Thanks for looking!! Are ya’ll liking the new seasonal themes? Or should I just pick one and stick with it? ;)
