The 2020 holiday season looked a little different than years prior—2020 was a year of challenges, adjustments, and unexpected blessings.
For us, that included moving into our fixer-upper during a global pandemic.
While the walls still needed painting and the floors had their quirks, we were determined to make the house feel like a home and make the season special.
With just a few simple touches—like a front porch/door update, a glowing tree, and lots of handmade decorations, it helped to create a cozy holiday atmosphere.
These little details reminded us that joy isn’t found in perfection but in the moments we created together.
2020 taught us to slow down, appreciate what we have, and lean into the simple things—like baking cookies in our unfinished kitchen or snuggling up on our couch in a construction zone, to watch holiday movies. It’s not the most polished Christmas we’ve ever had, but it might just be the most meaningful.
Here’s to finding joy in the imperfect, making new traditions, and cherishing what truly matters. From our little fixer-upper to yours, happy holidays!
