Happy Monday! There goes my attempt at positive thinking, again ;). If we think it will be a happy Monday then it will be, right? Or at least I hope that is how it works. I was already back to work last Thursday and Friday, but this is my first official full week back at work in two weeks and I have a feeling it is going to be a bit of a sluggish one. Plus, I am still dealing with a bit of the post-holiday blues. I guess I am just not quite ready to get back into the swing of things. So in an attempt to hang on to one of my favorite times of the year, I am going to share with you a holiday-themed post. In other words, this is basically going to be a wrap-up of what I have been up to over the past two weeks, all courtesy of my phone. And for those of you who follow me on Instagram, I apologize because these are mostly repeats.
An annual Christmas Eve tradition: cooking soup for my family. This year it was my “No Chicken” Noodle Chickpea Soup.
In case you missed it: the BEST chocolate fudge pie ever (and it’s vegan!)
Doodle #1: Sadie
Doodle #2: Lola & puppy dog kisses!
My Christmas dinner plate X 2
Healthy Bites from Tara’s giveaway!
I was a very lucky girl this Christmas. Santa brought me everything on my list and much more including a new pair of Uggs!
Egg on a pizza = the best thing everrrr.
The puzzle I completed over break. Nerd alert! 😉
My bff got married on NYE and I was on bridesmaid duty!
How cute is this? I have been using it for water ever since.
I was pretty much in love with my hair.
I was also in love with Panera bagels and mimosas.
My other bff, Stacy, and me before getting into our dresses.
I was pretty much obsessed with my shoes, and surprisingly they didn’t hurt my feet quite as badly as I expected ;).
The bride and her girls.
The bridal party.
After the wedding on the party bus.
Dinner included vegetable lasagna that was so good!
Amanda had a hot chocolate bar and smores, which were perfect considering it was snowing pretty much the entire day and night.
And yes, that is me in the obnoxiously bright coat and Uggs! 😉
All in all it was a fantastically busy and great holiday break!
