today

is WINDY!!! No joke...I almost took flight trying to cross the street to retrieve my kids paci from the car earlier! To my suprise it was not as fun as once imagined! Reminds me of those insane dreams my husband says he has about suddenly being able to fly!!! bahah...oh my husband...what a funny guy!

N-E-way... interesting how the outside weather and my mind prrrrrrrrrrrrretty much are doing the same thing...if I could look into my head im pretty sure it would look something like this...

Lots of beautiful, colorful ideas flying around...trying to be reconized! Ew ew pick me pick me...write me down, yeah yeah make a list of MEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Wow...I SERIOUSLY need to start a journal or SOMETHING before I go INSANE!!!

I love being creative...love it SO much that I have 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 different ideas...I need to learn  how to organize them...but ya know what...I've been saying that for like oh i dunno MY WHOLE LIFE...so I don't think thats gonna happen so probably should just stop wishing and hoping and just EMBRACE it...this is me...a little crazy! I like to think of it as organized chaos...its how I function best really...yet for some reason I continue to judge myself for it...

Wow ok so anyway AGAIN..its ALMOST CHRISTMAS!!! Yes I know...INSANE right??? I don't know why I feel like it has creeeeeeeeeeeeeeeped up on me since I have been thinking about it since Halloween...but it has!!!

I must say...one of my most anticipated gifts HAS to be Style School!!! Im super pumped for it...maybe they can help me embrace my creative self!

Signed, sealed, delivered...

It's that time of year when we send out our warmest wishes to the ones we love!!! Check out these awesome cards I found...

its begining to look...

a lot like Christmas!!! I woke up this morning to the first snow of the season!!! Its still coming down...just a light dusting...enough to cover the ground...but oh so beautiful! Its so magical when the snow falls for the first time...especially now since we have a little boy to share the beauty with! I am so blessed...so loved...so lucky!!! Tonight is our Christmas parade in Downtonw Winchester! Its going to be magical because this is going to happen tonight...

For the first time we are lighting our Christmas Lights strung from the Courthouse across the street to the buildings tops!!! Its going to be so AWESOME!!! People are going to come from all over just to drive under them...I just know it!!!

A little magic to start your day...

I couldn't have said it any better!

I'm not much of a jewelry person...mainly because my 11 month old little boy likes to pull, chew, and smack at anything I have dangling from my neck or ears...

But these pieces make me want to be...
