The countdown is on to Christmas. I AM NOT READY! I've got to have a marathon online shopping session tonight. Yes, online is my preferred method of shopping. All of the decorating has been completed so we really are enjoying the season. Both of the kids are home from college so that's a gift in itself.

I'm excited about today's post because it is special. It gives me the opportunity to share a few family traditions with you. 

A huge thank you to my dear friend, Laura from Duke Manor Farm, for the idea and organizing the small tour. Laura is one of the first friends I made in the blogging world. I'm looking forward to learning about her traditions as well as the other talented gals! Be sure to follow along to the end of the post to visit the other girls!

We have several holiday traditions. I'm sure they may even be similar to yours! I'll share them along the way as we tour our Christmas kitchen. It was a hot mess when it was time to photograph my Christmas Tour that went live last week. You can tour it HERE! So it didn't make the cut!

Many great times have been had around this kitchen table. When this space will accommodate, we usually eat here with family and friends opposed to the more formal dining room.

It has become a family tradition that we host a Christmas morning breakfast…late morning that is. It small with just the 4 of us and my 2 step-daughters. We really have a great time catching up over a hearty breakfast and opening gifts with each other. We've been doing this for a long time now.

I always have the table set with place cards that I made several years ago. I can't believe they are still intact and that I can actually locate them year after year. 

French country farmhouse Christmas with Our Southern Home #christmas #farmhousechristmas #frenchcountry #christmasdecor

We all look forward to this breakfast! Kind of funny, but we have the same breakfast each year. If it ain't broke I guess don't fix it. I like the breakfast because we can make it the night before which makes Christmas morning enjoyable and carefree.

French country farmhouse Christmas with Our Southern Home #christmas #farmhousechristmas #frenchcountry #christmasdecor

Some of our traditions actually start on Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve is my birthday, and with the kids I've always tried to make it about Christmas Eve and not by birthday. So we compromise a bit. Years ago, we started celebrating my birthday with my family sometime before the day. It was just too much trying to do my birthday on the day before Christmas. Besides, I wanted to make Christmas Eve about Christmas Eve. I love how we've been spending this day for many years now!

Every Christmas Eve, the kids and hubby take me to a nice lunch then we go to a movie. I get to choose, but I try to pick something we all will enjoy or a Christmas movie if one is out. My son keeps letting me know that a new Star Wars movie will be out then. UGH….not a fan, but we will see.

French country farmhouse Christmas with Our Southern Home #christmas #farmhousechristmas #frenchcountry #christmasdecor

After to movie, we come home and all contribute to get breakfast prepared for the next day.

Our Breakfast Menu is:

  • Breakfast Casserole
  • Cheese Grits Soufflé
  • Fresh Fruit
  • Coffee and Juice

You can find the Reindeer Placecards HERE. They are an easy at home print! All you need is a little ribbon and a hole punch.

The Breakfast Casserole is a great make-ahead dish and quite the crowd-pleaser. Last year we also made the Cheese Grits Soufflé the night before and it was great!

French country farmhouse Christmas with Our Southern Home #christmas #farmhousechristmas #frenchcountry #christmasdecor

We tell ALEXA to play a Christmas jam, and we make it fun in the kitchen. With everyone pitching in, we finish in no time!

The kids absolutely love the next tradition! When we were little, mom gave us new pajamas to wear on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning. I guess girls enjoy it more than boys. They don't get too excited when they get to open 1 gift on Christmas Eve and it's PJs! I sure love it!

French country farmhouse Christmas with Our Southern Home #christmas #farmhousechristmas #frenchcountry #christmasdecor

We all get comfy in the family room. Hubby starts a real fire for us, and we watch a Christmas movie or 2.

No cooking dinner on Christmas Eve. I usually have a cheese plate we can throw together quickly, and we pop popcorn of course.

And since it is my birthday, after all, mom gets to pick at least one of the movies with no groans or smart looks! HE-HE!

Here is the first look at our Christmas tree finally decorated. We don't do a fancy decorated tree in here. I do have one in the foyer. Would you believe that we just got the ornaments on it Tuesday night! That was the first chance with the kids in college that we could do another tradition….decorating the tree as a family. I had the tree in our home tour that you can find HERE with just the lights on it. I refused to go ahead and decorate it. It is such fun doing this together. The kids wouldn't admit it I am sure. It's a joy going down memory lane as we pull out the ornaments. We laugh at the photo ornaments of the kids when they were little. We purchase ornaments on our travels so it's fun to reminisce about those trips.

My mom made the Wizard of Oz ornaments when we were kids! They are made with felt, beading, sequins, and embroidery floss. They are so intricate and gorgeous. She gave them to me a few years back. I cherish them and DO NOT put them in the attic. I wrap them in tissue and place them in a drawer safely with the cross-stitched stockings that my mother-in-law made us. 

French country farmhouse Christmas with Our Southern Home #christmas #farmhousechristmas #frenchcountry #christmasdecor

I surprised the kids this year with the tree. I haven't done this in many years, but I strung 2 strands of colored lights deep in the tree. Then there are large and small clear bulbs. They love the hint of colored lights. Of course, they'd love for me to go full-on color. Who knows??? I might just really surprise them for one year. 

These are simple traditions, but they are ritually performed with love and care each and every year. I hope to see one day the kids carry on some or all of these traditions with their own families and add a few new ones of their own. 

Simple Breakfast Casserole that you can make the night before and pop in the oven in the morning! #breakfastcasserole #christmasbreakfast #breakfast

Here is our yummy Breakfast Casserole that we have every Christmas morning. You make it the night before to make the big morning carefree. I'm going to do my best to share the Cheese Grits Soufflé with you first part of next week. 

I made it in a 9×12 dish by mistake, but it was just as good just a little thinner. I typically make it in a an 7x11.5 (2 quart) Pyrex. It's thicker with fluffier eggs in this dish.

      Thanks so much!!! All of our interior lighting is from Circa Lighting. They are online. We built in 2004 so I’m not sure if all are still available. That is my favorite light in the entire house!

    Hi Christy – My younger sister was born the last week of December. My mom made sure that her birthday was extra special and even as adults my mom would make sure my siblings and I wrapped her birthday gifts with birthday wrap and not holiday wrapping paper. 🙂 Your home is beautiful, I love the taller cup rack you have. Is that an antique? Happy Birthday, and Merry Christmas.

      Thanks so much, Diane! Happy birthday to your younger sister. My hubby gave it to me several years ago for my birthday. I love it. It came from eBay and it is not an antique, but looks like one. I’m seeing taller ones on Amazon as well.

    Your home looks so beautiful as always! I know you are so happy to have the kids home. I love that you waited for them to come home before you decorated the tree and I’m sure they liked that too! Thanks for the recipe… I printed it out and just might make it this year! Merry Christmas!! XOXO

    Hi Christy! We both share a Christmas Eve birthday. As a kid, my folks always made my birthday special, so I never felt like I missed out. As I’ve gotten older, we do a birthday breakfast or lunch on Christmas Eve, like you do. Folks say don’t you hate having a Christmas Eve birthday, but I always respond, no, everyone is always in a good mood and happy! So that makes for a wonderful birthday for me 🙂 Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday!!

    I love that your Christmas tradition (like mine) involves food!!! And I absolutely recommend the Star Wars movie. They are so well done now. I didn’t think I would like the first one, but I went with my daughter (at her urging) and we enjoyed it so much!

    Oh, and happy birthday early!

Y'all know all that molding and trim that I've been tackling. It's so time-consuming but has a big reward. Fresh paint works wonders in a space. We've got a beautiful weekend ahead here in the south. Hoping to enjoy a little time in the yard before the pollen starts setting in.

AD: Call me quirky, but I love a great grocery sto AD: Call me quirky, but I love a great grocery store. I could explore forever. Ashlyn and I enjoy cooking together so shopping for our favorite steak taco night dinner was the perfect opportunity to visit our new @foodlion in the Greenville, SC area. We are no stranger to Food Lion! We shop there when in NC while visiting our family beach cottage. The extra fresh produce and meats section always blows us away. Food Lion prides itself on keeping prices low and passes savings to its customers. Be sure to sign up for an MVP card in-store & online. Swipe to see more + our yummy dinner!

Good morning! Another gorgeous day before the rain Good morning! Another gorgeous day before the rain and cold creep back in. The weather is a big tease around here! A tip & a question! Please read below...help a girl out! 

🌸 Do yourself a favor, when you go to the grocery store....pick up some fresh flowers. They are inexpensive and instantly brighten your day. Change out the water every couple of days and most will last a week. Cut a little off the stems as well. 

👁 I recently had an eye appointment. My doc wrote a prescription for me to get progressive readers. Folks, She said that I need 2.5s! I’m in a 1.75. It’s such a pain. Here’s my question. I can no longer pluck my eyebrows with my magnifying mirror! 🤣 The 52 struggle is real! What’s a girl to do? Become Bert or go to the salon. I don’t wax because it’s too irritating. @ashlyn_little offered to pluck them! 🤣 Anyone else in the same boat? 

Favorite @lovechicos look! My So Slimming Girlfriend jeans are on sale! Today is also the last day of their first-ever warehouse sale!

Curious? Do you make your bed daily? We do! We usu Curious? Do you make your bed daily? We do! We usually have a last one out rule. I just can’t walk in the bedroom with an unmade bed. My dresser may have a pile of folded laundry for a couple of days, but that bed is made! That Amazon blanket is linked in stories. It’s soooo good! 

This is perhaps my favorite look for our master bedroom! Soft toile, linen and leopard print bedding and blankets are so cozy! http://liketk.it/3953P #liketkit @liketoknow.it #StayHomeWithLTK #LTKstyletip @liketoknow.it.home

I have not been this excited about the weekend sin I have not been this excited about the weekend since last weekend! Ha, ha! Happy Friday! No big plans here, but I’m still trying to dress up for a date night in on the weekend. We’ve been eating a lot in the dining room lately. It’s a cozy space with the twinkle lights that I don’t have the heart 
to take down. It’s like feeling like we are in an actual restaurant opposed to the daily meals at the kitchen table. Just that little extra effort makes a difference. #ad

Loving these separates from @lovechicos This lightweight chevron sweater is perfect for now and spring. The lines are so slimming with the flowy ¾ length sleeve. Guess what! My So Slimming Girlfriend Jeans are on sale now thru February 25th! All full-priced jeans are $59!

Been watching the news before cooking dinner and e Been watching the news before cooking dinner and enjoying a glass of wine. It’s heartbreaking seeing what’s going on in Texas. The people, the animals....I pray that everyone finds warmth, food and water tonight. It makes me look ahead to warmer days and carefree times of summer. This photo was last summer....I’m ready for outdoor weather. 🙏

I’ve been on a no sugar or anything processed lifestyle change going on 7 weeks except for that weekend cheat meal. Spent an afternoon doing a little shopping and indulging in a vanilla chai latte with my daughter, and it made my day! No regrets on the sweet splurge. #ad

This outfit with pieces from @lovechicos has been on repeat the last couple of weeks! I don’t tend to wear bright colors like this in the winter but let me tell you…. this sweater changed my mind! I am sharing 4 fun looks on the blog today with some of my favorite @lovechicos pieces. #lovechicos

These So Slimming Girlfriend jeans are the only ones I reach for these days. They work with boots, heels, flats and sneakers.
