What's not to love about Linus recounting the story of Christmas? It just never gets old. Plus, Linus has a trusty blanket, and I too had a trusty blanket up until a year and a half ago, so Linus and I have a lot in common.

happy olympics day!

The only thing that would make this opening-ceremonies-day more awesome would be if I were watching it with my fellow Olympics nerd, Junie!

i love olive us.

How sweet are these kids? They're all siblings, and the videos are produced by their parents. They have three episodes out so far, and the goal of the project is to show what it's like to be a kind and caring sibling to your brothers and sisters. I love that. I also love their adorable names (listed in the credits). See more at http://oliveus.tv/.

Happy Monday!

P.S. A little treat from the Katie + Charles archives...circa 2007.
