as the rain pours

i know christmas is in full swing back in the states & although i'm not feeling the holiday spirit here in israel, that doesn't mean im not in the christmas spirit  :) 

i just wanted to share some holiday-inspired photos that i think are pretty.

i would totally love to bring these to a holiday-themed party:

& last, but not least, i love photoshoots, so i would convince dekel to dress all warm & cuddly and we would drape lights around us for a few photos to frame around our home:
