Happy Labor Day!

Hope you all have a fun, but safe Labor Day!
We have been enjoying the sunshine, glitter and giggles of Disney World.
Be back soon!

 

ps; I’m sure you’ve all seen the news on my various social networks, but I’ve been selected to be a brand ambassador for Ban.do! I am beyond thrilled and pretty flattered to be working with such an amazingly fun and creative company that I have been such a huge fan of for a long time. To quote Garth Algar, I am not worthy! I can’t wait to share their great products with you all very soon!

Magical Moments Monday

I hope you all had a great holiday weekend with your nearest and dearest! It always goes a little too fast, huh? Here were our highlights:

x. Really delicious Thanksgiving dinner
x. Sharing stories and pictures from our trip with family and friends
x. Chatter about starting to test drive cars (!!!)
x. Starting new photo traditions, namely, a picture at each anniversary
x. Putting together a video of our amazing vacation
x. Putting up our fun & kitschy tree and other Christmas decorations
x. Attempting to listen to Christmas music and failing (it makes me angry for some reason), eventually reverting to the Nightmare Before Christmas OST
x. Seeing my hubby happy: He finally got an iPhone 4s!
x. Having a girls nite with my sister
x. Starting some fun Christmas-themed DIY projects like this cute tinsel wreath:

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!!!

I hope you all have a great time with family and friends, enjoying good food, drink and company. I know I have a lot to be grateful for this year and I hope you all do as well.

DIY Holiday Wreaths

OK, so I know I like to say that I am a big, fat Grinch during the holidays, but I feel like something may change this year. Maybe it’s the fact that we have our own house to call home and I can actually put up lights, and really enjoy the festive decor. Or maybe I’m just changing (for the best?). Either way, I’ve wanted to take on a new crafty project (I itch for one if it’s been too long) and I think now is definitely the time! Modern, quirky holiday wreaths are my favorite way to dress up a home for the season, but unfortunately, they tend to go for big bucks and with the state of things, we definitely have to find alternatives. Cue DIY!
