happy friday and happy new year! it seems a bit razy that the holidays have come and gone, but there is something special about those first few days of january and a fresh start.

maya was so into christmas this year, and the magic was not lost on her. she loved writing a note to santa, and preparing his plate of cookies and reindeer treats (carrots and muddy buddies, of course).

happy friday! in the midst of christmas week, and keeping as much of the magic going. we typically stay home for christmas, and visit family on other weekends around the holidays to celebrate. that means our christmas itself is at home, the five of us, snuggling in pjs and eating our favorite foods.

happy friday! another week, and inching rapidly closer to christmas. wade and i cannot believe how fast the end of the year has gone. i feel like halloween was yesterday, and yet somehow i’m finalizing christmas lists, planning cozy meals, and putting the finishing touches on our family holiday magic.

it has been a minute, but friday favorites was really exciting to me. i love the magic of the holidays, planning holiday adventures for my children, and cozying up on the couch to watch holiday movies after bedtime.

this week was crazy; i had numerous work events and meetings, which made the week fly by. it’s also gotten so cold, it absolutely feels like winter.

this week’s friday favorites feel like a little bit of all of what i needed this week; holiday magic, decompressing, and welcoming the cold.

friday friday friday! after a whirlwind of a week, i am so happy it’s friday. we have virtually zero plans this weekend, outside of football being back. our family is ready for pizza friday, watching the us open, and the farmer’s market this weekend.
