Keepin' it real

It's so easy to get caught up this time of year in the stresses of the holidays, the crowds, the spending of money....

I have been guilty of this. But this year, thanks to this book, I've been doing my best to stay positive. I didn't actually read this book, but my in-laws told me about it.

So this year- I am thinking a lot about the little things.

And remembering why Christmas is so special to me:

(two years ago)

(three years ago)

Those two are why this time of year is so incredibly special for me.

Those two are why I feel so grateful this time of year.

Those two are why the magic is in the air.

And I do love them. A lot.

Until next time...
