{ a few of katie's favorite things }

I am always blown away by all the gifts I receive at Christmas. I think my mom's love language is gift giving - so naturally Christmas presents are a big deal in my family. I love coming home and unpacking everything & getting to use them. These are a few of my favorite things I received this holiday. 

Seriously - just a few of things - because I got sooo many things I love! 

I had been hoping for ugg boots, but didn't ask for them because we really needed money for a refrigerator, but Santa is very generous...Philip got me a wide-angle lens I had been hoping for. He got it on ebay...just like the base of the camera. I am loving it! 

Have you tried smart wools? You really should. They are kind of pricey, but the best socks...Philip loves his. He has 5 pairs of them, which I think is funny that he knows how many pairs he has. Like seriously, who keeps inventory on their socks? 

The last picture is of me wearing my Free People lace slip. It is so cute. You can layer it under t-shirts or sweaters. I couldn't find it online - but this is similar + also very cute. 

blue polka dot robes

nothing says christmas like matching blue with white polka dotted robes...

we have had a great holiday so far. we got a bunch of snow! i love a white christmas. this has been one for the record books. we actually got snowed into our family friends' house last night while eating dinner. we had made jokes about having to have a sleepover and it actually happened. i'll have pictures of all the fun soon. 

however, i wish there were still christmas movies on tv. i haven't had my fill (phil) yet. 

hope you are enjoying your holiday!
