Happy Veterans Day! We’re enjoying a balmy 37 degree day in Omaha with my in-laws. My kids interviewed my dad and father-in-law about serving in the military and air force, respectively. I thought it was a cool assignment for them, and meaningful one for me. It reminded me how grateful I am for their service.

Today I’m wearing spanx (size up) a tan hoodie (fall must-have) faux fur coat (under $80!) and my favorite Nordic boots! I’ve had these boots for 3 years and I STILL LOVE THEM.

My kids don’t love family pictures, but here are some ways we make it easier.

Since I get asked often what are some tips to styling a great family photo:

1. Pick one print (here I chose black watch plaid)

2. Pair that print with neutrals for example khaki pants, white shirts, white dresses, and neutral footwear.

3. Add a pop of red!

4. Don’t forget some prizes! I bring meringue cookies, lollipops, whatever sweets I have on hand to keep the smiles up. A little bribery goes far!

boys pjs $27! // girls nightgowns // women’s pjs or pants (I’m wearing a small) // men’s pj pants (Reid is wearing a size small) // my hat // my tee (only $11!) // baby knit outfit  // 7.5′ tree // stockings // artwork // garland

I’m obsessed with matching family pajamas. These are awesome because they are quality, come in all sizes (minus Levi) and warm for chilly nights! Now is the time to get them, they’re on sale and just before December comes around. Our tradition the day after Thanksgiving is to get our tree (usually a real one), and bring it home to decorate. For dinner, we have french onion soup, fresh bread, and hot chocolate. We settled for store bought bread and ended the night with “It’s a Wonderful Life.‘ I feel truly blessed. It IS a wonderful life! I hope the kids remember these traditions though small for many years to come.

What’s your tradition? I’d love to hear.
