We are lucky to live close. I especially want to try hard as Olivia is younger. It must be hard to have older siblings out of the house already! Thank you!

I have been a fan for a few years now, and my husband and I have managed to work them into summer road trips etc. and see them 6 times in the last 4 ish years maybe. We usually get the cheapie seats and try to go somewhere really close. That cuts costs, but the shows are always so fun! I hope that you get to go someday soon! :) I hope you got a chance to watch the holiday!

I am glad that for the time being we all live close and get to see each other frequently. :) I hope that you had a lovely time seeing your family, even though you had to leave them too. <br /><br /><br />The Holiday is so sweet! I agree Kate is so adorable, and so is Leo. I used to highly prefer Cameron & Jude's storyline... and it is still more romantic, but I just love Arthur. :) And I love the fact that this is the first time I have like Jack Black's acting.... it's so funny in that movie. :) <br /><br /><br />I hope you did too! <br /><br /><br />XO,<br /><br /><br />AlexandraAlexandra Consolverhttp://www.simplyalexandramyfavoritethings.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450106821547345955.post-41751564637764049942014-12-29T08:22:17.469-06:002014-12-29T08:22:17.469-06:00Thanks Jessica!

I always like hearing about how other people prepare for the holidays, because it's such an exciting time. It's so lovely to see how much time you spend with your family, I love that! I live across the country from my family, and even though I'm home for the holidays I'm dreading going back and being so far from my family again. <br /><br />I actually have seen The Holiday, lol and I love it! Even though I adore Kate Winslet (she and Leo need to just get married), I actually like Cameron and Jude Law's storyline better than Kate and Jack Black's. Sometimes I actually fast forward through their scenes to get back to Cameron and Jude lol. <br /><br />I hope you had a lovely holiday Alexandra! From the looks of this post I'm sure you did!! :)<br /><br /><i>Z.</i> | <a href="http://www.jdotpotter.com/" rel="nofollow"><b>J.
