We were on the hunt for our Christmas tree last weekend. Let me tell you about Alhambra Christmas Tree Farm. Located at 2647 Reliez Valley Rd in Martinez. They have a pretty good selection! We were going back and forth between two. I like the location and there is beautiful golden hour light here as well. We brought a veteran (my dad who had a Christmas tree lot for a few years) and he showed Rhys the ways of picking out the best tree. I just love Rhys’ genuine reaction to my dad. He loves his grandpa so much, we all had a good time at the Alhambra Christmas tree farm. We picked out a 8-9 foot noble fir and they loaded it in the car.

Wishing you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year!
Rhys and Mimi are in adorable Hanna Andersson Christmas gnome pajamas. Each year I order the next size up for Rhys and each year they continue this pattern, so we having been rocking the same print for 4 years now! We went up to Tahoe to visit with Mimi before shelter in place and got in some snuggles!

Rhys found this costume in my wardrobe closet in my studio and wanted to find the white rabbit. I thought that was so cute and also so smart! How did he recall or know 19th century style from Alice in Wonderland and put the two together? This outfit also reminded me of a character from the Great Dickens Christmas Faire. Both are from the Victorian era or 19th century.
I’m really enjoying this stage in his life, a time where he likes to play dress up and has imaginative play. I feel this time is going to pass so fast, so I’ll take the adorable outfits and cheesy posing. I mean my puppies just turned 5 months and we got them at 5 weeks old. Time feels different during Covid. It sometimes feels like we really are in Wonderland.
