Jenn- I would LOVE to have a real one
but cannot so fake it is.

Marie- Sugar Cookies.
Jenn- Frosted Sugar Cookies.

3. Home on Christmas Morning or Travel?

uncle's home late afternoon. I would always
throw a fit because I wanted to stay home and
play with my toys.

4. Clear or Colored Lights?

Jenn- White lights are not Christmas lights!
I hate them and go crazy when I see them. 
So, yeah, colored lights it is.

5. Send Christmas Cards?
Marie- always but last year I didn't do them.
Jenn- always. One year, we did a picture card
of us with the twins from the Boondock Saints
Movie. That was a huge hit with people.

6. Favorite Christmas Present Received? 
MarieIt's a tie between a trip to Spain and a new car.
 It was fun driving everyone around in my new fancy SUV
 listening to the NKOTB Christmas album. 
Yeah, I'm spoiled. 
Jenn- I have gotten some pretty amazing
Christmas presents, so I can't pick
just one.

7. Favorite Christmas Present Given?
Marie-A trip to London and Paris. That was my present
to Jenn for Christmas and her (our) Birthday. 
Our Birthday is three days after Christmas.
Jenn-I have no idea, do you know how many presents
I have given in my lifetime??

8. Stockings or no stockings? 
Marie-stockings, I still use the one from 
when I was a little girl. It's on the small side but I love it.
Jenn-STOCKINGS! Best part of Christmas.

9. Christmas PJ's?
Marie-always, reminds me that I need to 
get some for this year.

Marie picks them out for us.

15. Cookies and Milk for Santa? 
Marie- Of course. When we were little, Santa would eat 
them and leave crumbs all over the table. He also wrote us a 
note every Christmas Eve. We were devastated when we found
out the truth!! Christmas has never been the same. 
Jenn-of course. And one year, he went into our freezer and
ate some of our Frosty the snowman ice cream cake!! 

We love the holiday season as it is also 
the season of our birth! haha 
Now, if we could just get our own birthday
cakes, we would be very happy. 
Talking to you, Mom!!

The Ultimate 2017 Christmas Gift Guide- Men



Today, I'm linking up with OwenBrittany, and Emily
for The Ultimate 2017 Christmas Gift Guide.  
Today, it is all about the Men!!

Fleece Pullover

Sweater Jacket

Watch

Bracelet

Robe

Tech Gloves

Game of Thrones T-shirt

Valet Tray

Cashmere Beanie

Wallet

Taco Socks

Wet/Dry Shaver System

Portable Speaker

Backpack

Men's Fragrance

Baseball Cufflinks


That wraps up my Gift Guide for men. 
To be honest, it can be challenging to find a gift for that
special man in your life. I find that sticking to the basics or 
men's staples (classics) is always a good idea.

Do you find it hard to shop for men??
Let me know, I love hearing from you!!

Currently...The Twin Edition

Hey Hey!
It's the Twin's.
We thought it would be fun to do a
  currently post, twin edition.

This is what we are currently up to.

 drinking //
Brown Sugar Cinnamon Iced Coffee by Dunkin Donuts.
It's a little bit of sugar cookie mixed with snickerdoodle and it
is so freaking good. And yes, ICED. Always iced,
year round, even if there is snow on the ground.


 listening //
Christmas Music, ALL DAY LONG.
Note-This is because Marie controls the radio in the car.
Jenn is not a fan at all!! You do not listen to Christmas
music before Thanksgiving. She has been listening to it
non-stop since November 1st

This is one the BEST Christmas Songs,
according to Marie only!!

 watching //
 Friends on Netflix. We cannot stop
watching this show. It really was a great show and
oh so funny.
  How you doin???

 wanting //
less Uber and Lyft drivers on the road. It's becoming a huge problem in
the city. They pull over anywhere on the road to pick up or drop off. They are
not paying attention to the road because they are too busy looking at their
GPS. The other day, we saw one go down a one way because he was
not paying attention. He almost hit all the people walking on the sidewalk.
It's a very small street that he went down.  Sorry, but they are making traffic
 even worse than it already is. Boston streets cannot handle all
these extra cars on the road.


 enjoying //
All the holiday lights!! We try to do one holiday thing
a week. This week we are going to see Blink at Fanueil Hall.
Last week, we went to the Enchanted Village. It's a great way
to stay in the holiday spirit but it's not over kill.
Note-Jenn is already tired of all this Christmas music.
 It's like they just play the same five songs over and over again.

loving //
This purse.
I love having a tote that has a zippered closure.
And the leather is gorgeous.Even, Jenn likes it and she
 usually doesn't like my taste in handbags.
Although, it should be noted that she would want one in black.


wearing //
We have been wearing our vests non-stop.
Marie's is navy, Jenn's is black.Yes, we walk around with the same
vests on. Such a twin move!!

smelling //
Sugar Cookies!!
This candle smells just like freshly baked sugar cookies.

daydreaming //
our upcoming trip to NYC for our birthday!!
We cannot wait!! There is something very special about being in NYC
over the holidays. It's a bit magical. 

sales //
Bath and Body Works 3-Wick Candles sale ($8 each) is 
Saturday, December 3rd. We will be stocking up!! 


sales  two //
