Christmas Time

Pa Rum pa pum........It amazes me how fast the entire month of December flies by in the blink of an eye, we jump from Thanksgiving to Christmas. It is in these two months that time should be savored with friends and family. I have enjoyed my merry little Christmas this year. There was a lot of traveling, a lot of Love, a few naps in front of a fire, traditions kept and made.

Thanksgiving

This year Thanksgiving consisted of a road trip to Lexington and to Gastonia NC with the parents! A great weekend full of friends, family, shopping and of course food! I enjoyed the cool air, porch swings, belly laughs, hotel blackout shades, and vineyard views.....to name just a few!

I recently read a horoscope that is resonating with me:
Being a success in life is like photography. Just focus on what's important, develop from the negatives and if things don't work out....
take another shot!
