fox – trend alert

fox – trend alert

It seems that there is always an animal that makes an appearance each year.  The past few years we have seen a lot of birds – especially owls – and then last year there seemed to be a lot of octopuses — or… octopi?  Ha!  Anyway, each year a new animal seems to pop up in home decor, fashion, design, etc.  This year must be the fox – and I kind of love it!

If you want to be up on the trend, below are some great finds!

We have a tradition in my family.  Every Christmas Eve, we get a new pair of PJs.  My mom had this tradition with her family growing up, and she passed it along to us.  SO, that means that tonight, I will get to open a new pair of pajamas! We open them in time to wash them before we settle in for the evening and watch National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation – a new tradition my husband and I have started.  I hope you have yourself a very merry holiday.

These would make some awesome pajama gifts…

Adult Onesises (and even better, a crazy monkey pattern) from Jumpin Jammerz
