Hi lover! Today’s post is a recap of different moments throughout December {2017} that made my holiday season so special.
This Christmas was one of the best because we have Baby G on the way. 🙂 Aside from our sweet baby G, being able to celebrate with our family and closest friends made the holidays so fun. Let’s start this recap with how I decorated our house.
My mom really helped me decorate all of it and I love how it turned out! The garland she made herself and I still have it up because I just can’t convince myself to take it down haha.
Santa’s Enchanted Forest is a Christmas themed fair that comes to Miami every year. It has trees lit up every where you look, funny signs to take pictures with and even a mailbox for letters to Santa. It also has traditional fair food and some pretty fun rides too. I went with my mom, boyfriend and two cousins and the boys enjoyed going on the rides.
On Christmas Eve (also known as Noche Buena) my boyfriend and I had a party at our house and celebrated with both our families and some of our closest friends. My boyfriend cooked and one of our friends also made some side dishes and a dessert..the food was a big hit! After dinner we turned up the music and everyone started dancing. This was probably my favorite moment ever because dancing makes my heart and soul so happy. It was freaking awesome!
On Christmas Day, we always open presents in the morning. For Christmas dinner, it’s a tradition that I go to my best friend’s family celebration. Their food is always homemade and so delicious. My favorite tradition of theirs is called Peppermint Pig. This is a moment when the entire party gathers around and each person says what they are a grateful for that year. It gets emotional but it’s truly a beautiful moment.
