"I've been spending Christmas in Beaver Creek, Colorado since I was three years old. It's incredibly special for me to be able to bring Henry there each year, and to introduce him to all of my childhood traditions. One of my favorites is our annual trip to a restaurant called the Minturn Country Club. The name is supposed to be tongue-in-cheek; it's very much not a country club. There's a huge communal grill, and you order your dinner from a butcher's counter and grill your food together. There's also an enormous salad bar, and my brothers and I are experts at making salads that are mostly cheddar cheese and ranch dressing on a plate. I dream about the Onion Rings all year. Usually we take turns holding Henry at a safe distance from the grill while we make garlic bread, steak and veggies. There's also a shuffleboard table that Henry asks about as soon as we arrive in Colorado. It's the best night."

"I'm obsessed with the Emery vest, and can't wait to buy my husband, Teddy, a matching one. Teddy is a huge fan of matching outfits. Usually when we're all walking together I'm the odd one out, but they're so cute I don't mind!"
