The Perfect Tree

We decided to start a new tradition this year and head to the mountains to find the perfect tree! We headed to Glennville, NC to Tom Sawyer Tree Farm to choose and cut our tree. It was a perfect, cold day and I look forward to this new family tradition!!

Olivia's Parade Debut

Olivia goes to Palmetto Cheer and Tumble one day a week and they were in the Anderson Christmas Parade. Olivia walked the entire parade route, about a mile in 35 degree weather! Her teacher was so proud of her and her mommy and daddy were too!!!

 She wore this outfit for a week straight! Thanks Aunt Shell!!!
