The Holiday Season


For me, the Holidays started November 1st, but for most people, the Christmas season doesn't start until after Thanksgiving but for me Thanksgiving is just a part of the Christmas season. I am loving being back here with the clean air smell {even Austin comments on it} the crisp air, some sun some rain & I am loving the time change! Last night I helped my mom put the 'Christmas Village' up and plan to continue the decorating until Thanksgiving when it ALL goes up! Since we were in Denver the last 2 years I haven't been able to pick out a tree in quite a while but this year it's one of the things I am most looking forward to! Walking into Starbucks {as I already mentioned} always smells, and looks like the holidays this time of year and even downtown Kirkland was putting up their real garlands-they smell like Christmas and make me so happy! It has been a weird adjustment moving back though trying to juggle a baby, friends and family {and for 4 weeks, a job} I think things are finally starting to feel normal again & are only going to get better, it's my favorite time of year & I have SO MUCH to be thankful for!

My Sweet Savannah


I discovered this blog when I went to a craft fair & saw the cute things she makes...check out her blog, super cute stuff! I am a little obsessed! http://mysweetsavannah.blogspot.com/, also check out her etsy store, the link is on her blog...she has a lot more than what is featured, I am sure you could contact her!

It's beginning to TASTE a lot like CHRISTMAS!!!



It IS THAT TIME OF YEAR PEEPS! The Starbucks Christmas Cups were revealed yesterday & the Eggnog, Gingerbread & Peppermint drinks came out of hididng! We took a walk into town & I got my lite whip gingerbread steamed soy milk & my mouth was flooded with the taste of the season. It's without question my favorite time of the year & it is now official. I am so excited for all the fun things I will get to do this fall up until Christmas with my new baby girl, who as you can see was equally as drawn to that cup as I was :) Merry Christmas Season Everyone!
