Earlier this week we were invited to a very special occasion: a Christmas breakfast in our PJs! This is a fun tradition that my friend Kristin and her mom have had going for a few years now. Each December, Janet invites her grandchildren over for a morning of Christmas fun in their pajamas. And while weโ€™re not technically family, my mom, my kids, and I were lucky enough to be included in this yearโ€™s festivities.

A former school teacher, Miss Janet has thought of everything! Gibbs and his dear friend Charlie had fun dancing to Christmas music while Ella and Casey looked on.

We ate a delicious brunch complete with mimosas, waffles, fruit, coffee cake, and an egg and sausage casserole.

It was truly the perfect way to spend a morning during this hectic time of year. We celebrated with our close friends and family, and enjoyed all that the season has to offer.
