Thanksgving and Christmas are Bittersweet for our family. Our Loved one’s have gone “home” during these holidays. Most recent is our mom. Though it is Bitttersweet…we still carry on with our New Year Mochi making before New Year’s Eve where our families get togetheer to make hand made mochi. Lots of hard work however, Lots of fun as well…best part is having handmade nochi on New Yeer’s Day! Cherished, Tresured, Priceless Memories!

Oh May, thank you so much for sharing your incredible talents: I love your blog and find so much inspiration here. Thanks for this Christmas card photo list! My favorite thing to do at the holidays is take a hike with my family, so nice to get out in nature without the internet world and just talk and enjoy each other in beautiful natural surroundings.

Merry Christmas May & hubby & cats.x
Dec . 15 . 2017My favourite thing to do over the festive season is on Christmas day, to see the children’s eyes when they come down with their stocking & see their presents set out under the tree, their excitement is contagious & I love it as they open them after trying to guess, magical x
