I started this blog about a month ago in hopes of sharing my journey with a few family members. However, within a month, I’ve gained almost 50 followers and have earned more then 2,000 views. This has given me the confidence to start another blog, one that Zack and I will be sharing. It’s going to be our blog.
Zackary and I are still working on all the little details of our site, but we expect the new blog to be out by Christmas / Early January. So be sure to follow along on this blog so that when the other blog comes out, you won’t miss it! (I’ll publish a post about the new blog when it comes out!!)
We’ve finally decorated our Christmas tree! And now, this #Blogmas post is going to be my family’s guide to decorating the perfect tree. (Thanks to Zack and Finn for all their help!)
Find a Xmas tree! The best way to do this, is to go out into the great outdoors, and chop one down! (Thank you to Dad, Finn, Zack, Colter and Miguel for doing this!)
Set it up! We always place ours in the family / living room. (Big thanks to Mom, Grandma, Grandpa, Raine and Alaïa for doing this with me!!)
Find those decorations! (Thank you to Domi, Veri, Connor and Raine for digging them out of the back closet!)
Put the bows, balls, lights and tinsel on the tree!
Add extra decorations!
Finally, place the star (or angel) on top of the tree. As family tradition in the house, the youngest member their gets to do it. Technically, Veronica is the youngest, so we suppose she should do it, but since Dominique is only 2 minutes older, we let them both do it! (Thank you to Finn and Zack for lifting them up so they could reach the tippy-top of the tree)
The tree is complete! Be sure to enjoy it with a nice cup of hot cocoa with your family!
Till’ next post, Everleigh
(P.S. The younger kids wanted to type their names onto this post because they worked so hard at the tree, so I decided to let them. 😉 )
I gotta admit, I am that person that spends hours agonizing over Christmas wallpaper choices. Should I have a tree? Or holly? If you also are looking for some cute Christmas wallpapers for your laptop, computer, phone, tablet etc. then this post can maybe help you out!
Let’s start it off classic & simple. With this fun “Merry Christmas” greeting, it will be sure to get you into that holiday spirit!

5. These next wallpapers are for phones, and they have lots of different Christmas themes about them!
My personal favs out of these last phone wallpapers is probably the stockings and baby reindeer. That’s what’s on my iPhone!
6. And last but definitely not least, we have some computer and laptop wallpapers!
Out of these ones, I gotta say I do love the Santa one and the tree / house one!
If you do happen to be interested in using some of these wallpapers, just screenshot them, and add them to your device! If you have any questions or concerns regarding them, or how to apply them to your deceive, just comment below, or contact me . Thanks for reading!
#Blogmas post #1! December has officially rolled around, and as tradition my family will be decorating the house. With so many kids in the family, it can be a challenge to keep everything organized, but we are definitely trying to do so this year!
We have “Christmas Groups” every year in our family. In other words, we organize who is in charge of what this time of year. Alaïa, Finn (Alaïa’s boyfriend), Connor and Veronica will be in charge of the upstairs decorating. This includes everything that needs to be decorated upstairs except for the Christmas Tree. (The Christmas Tree is family tradition to do together, and we set it up 2 weeks before Christmas). Dad, Colter, Raine, Granny and Dominque will be in charge of the downstairs decorating which will include the chimney and pulling out those old lights. Lastly, is the outside decorating. This year, Gramps, Mom, Zack (my boyfriend) and I will tackle it! We will make a few snowmen, set up the lights and outside Xmas tree, as well as the cardboard Rudolph and Frosty and Santa.
We will try to tackle it all in a day, and I am betting we will have a lot of hot chocolate to keep us going! Christmas is personally my favourite time of the year, as it means that DHS (Dental Hygiene School) finishes for a little while, and I have tons of time to hang with my family.
But now I hear Miguel telling me to get back to work. I will do so, and hopefully will not get another warning from my dear Guelly!
Next post, I will be sure to include some photos of our newly decorated house!
ANNOUNCEMENT EVERYONE!!! As we all know, Christmas is fast approaching. Hallmark movies are playing, houses are being decorated, and your favourite Christmas playlist is playing. And so I am gonna be making a bit of a change to my blog in December.
What I’m tryna get at is that I will be hitting “pause” on my regular posts (eg. Meet My Boyfriend, Where Do I Live?, Dog Names I Love etc, etc.) so that I can start my Christmasy posts! I will return in January with posts such as my Workout Routine & House Tour, but for now it’s time for… (Drumroll Please)
BLOGMAS!
That’s right! You see stuff all over YouTube about VLOGmas, but thats for videographers. I am a blogger. Therefore, I will be doing Blogmas!
Every so often, I will have a post on me, Zack and my family preparing for the holidays. Posts about things like decorating the house, family traditions, Christmas baking, etc! Now, this being said, I will be doing fewer posts, but the quality and length will go up, so trust me! It’s only gonna get better!
So make sure you follow my blog, twitter and instagram so you don’t miss out on anything!
