My Favorite Things…This Christmas more then ever I just want to spend a lot of quality time with our family! A few weeks before visiting, my mom said she wasn’t planning on decorating too much…something about grandchildren demolishing everything within reach…? I was kind of bummed because I love, love her Christmas decorations. Fast forward a few weeks when we pulled up to the house the front shutters were open and I looked in to see a new, beautiful 10 foot Christmas tree impeccably decorated (I’ll post a picture soon). Then I walked in the door and the rest of the house was decked out too. It was the most perfect surprise ever! Oh my gosh I could sit and look at that tree all day!!! Nothing like being home during the holidays!

Ya know, I’ve been married 5 years and we’ve never had a Christmas tree…is that pathetic? haha. I’m not really into fresh trees, and I don’t want to store a fake one in our 2 bedroom apartment, so no tree.

My mother-in-law also loves to decorates her house. My favorite decoration she put out this year is a new one too!

I love Physicians Formula Bronzer, it’s amazing. Have you ever used it? It’s kind of pricy, I’m not really into spending $15 for one item of make-up, but this is worth it. I ran out of it a couple weeks ago and my make-up just doesn’t look the same. I’m asking Santa for some for Christmas…exciting huh? I’m actually really excited!

Guess where you can find this beauty? Did you guess? I bet Micahel’s craft store didn’t even cross your mind. I never would have guessed it, but my friend Corinne over at The Lookbook shared how she organized her amazing jewelry. If you haven’t seen her website check it out. I can’t even imagine having half the jewelry she has! I might ask Santa for one of these too. Did I mention it’s only like $17. Sweet!

I found these boots on Pinterest a few months ago! Could you die? I’m obsessed! I did a little digging…ok a lot of digging, and found out where I could get them. They are Jeffrey Campbell’s and cost about $250…kind of out of my budget! I love them though! I’m really digging the combat boots, have been for a while actually. Luckily I found a different pair I like that wont cost me an arm and a leg.
