Tis the Season...

What a wonderful time of year,

to be present in the moment and enjoy the memories with your friends and family.

This time of year I normally get overwhelmed with all the complexities of the Christmas Season.
There are so many events to attend, and gifts to wrap up.

This year I want to slow down and enjoy the simplicity of it all.
Instead of rushing every minute of the next 25 days, I am going to reflect on the awesome life I have and all the gifts I already have in my possession.

Family is the most important present I have, everything else is just extra.
The warm tiny hands holding mine as we walk through the busy stores. The hand drawn Christmas cards my children create for me to store forever in my heart.
The relaxing near the Christmas Tree watching the vintage holiday movies together.
These are the moments that I choose to appreciate and remember.

I hope this holiday season, we all take time to reflect on the joys we already have and not get

caught up in the chaos of consumerism.

Most of all,

I wish everybody a very Merry Christmas!

Cheers,

Christmas Time is here.

The evergreen smell is filling our house as we prepare to get ready for Christmas this year. I enjoy Christmas so much and I love spending time with my family. This year we get to wake up and see the face of our little Adalaide smiling at the sight of Christmas morning. (well probably drooling and crying because… she is a baby) Words can’t describe this upcoming feeling of wanting to start these new traditions with her. My whole life I got to enjoy the traditions of our family from being a little tike to being an adult. However, now we get to embrace new traditions and new joys of having a little one in our home on Christmas morning. It is a surreal feeling. I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and hope you keep up the traditions you had as a child every year. Enjoy the memories this upcoming holiday and be present in the moment. Social media should take a step back and really enjoy the company of others this weekend

Memories

come back into our head,

after the scents

of Gingerbread,

and carols of yesteryear

echoe in our ears.

Gather around the table,

and feast on the finest Roastbeast.

as merriment, happiness, and joy

converse among our family cheer.

No sorrow, no pain , no worry, no angst

let us hold off and have an armistice

until tomorrow or forever

Amen.

Cheers
