Christmas Sunday Best

Growing up, my grandma always bought us Christmas dresses (and similar nice outfits for my brothers) every December. She would take us to see the Nutracker in OKC. I loved that tradition. I have desires to do the same with my family, except for that my husband tends to SLEEP through the Nutcracker, so perhaps I will watch a video of it to save on ticket expenses. One part of this tradition that I HAVE kept going is to get a new dress/outfit for my children for Christmas. I found some adorable ones online this year. Take a look:



 



We received several compliments on how cute they looked at church, and I, of course, couldn't agree more.

My grandmother always did this too! She even took us to see the Nutcracker, we decided to wait until Evie is 8 to take her for the firs time (that's when I got to go for the first time) but we still buy them dresses in the mean time :) Glad to know other people do this too, and the kids look absolutely adorable, you're right you found some awesome clothing for them!

My daughter gets a new dress every Christmas, and it's one of her favorite Holiday traditions! She'll be seven next year, and we'll go to the Nutcracker for the first time. I can't wait! New dressy clothes and ballet- two really fantastic Holiday treats! Your kids look fantastic!

They look SO classy. I love it. I want to do a tradition like this, too...maybe it'll be more fun when I have a girl to dress up? Anyway. Good job on keeping the kids cute (although, being your children, how could they NOT be? ;)
