all I want for Christmas

I'm just going to say, this has been a really great Christmas season thus far.  And it's about to get better.  Wednesday morning I'm flying home to Utah for a few days and I'm so excited.   

What I'm looking forward to most:

1) Watching the best Christmas movie ever: "All I want for Christmas" 

 

2) Grandma's Candy Cane Rolls - while Grandma is no longer with us, her recipe still is.  

3) Wearing PJ's all day on Christmas

5) Puzzles and board games

6) Family parties

7) Chillin' with Zoe (the cat)

my quiet little life

I'd just like to take a minute to say that I love my life.  While I don't have it all figured out just yet, I'm in love with this moment in time.  I can't quite believe all the little things that make my life rad.  

Today as I was leaving work, I walked by my favorite flowers - still blooming.  And I thought to myself, it doesn't get much better than this.  On the first of December, I was able to wear my favorite mittens AND enjoy a beautiful bunch of Japanese anemones, still blooming their little hearts out.    

Not my picture but I thought you might like a visual. 

So at the risk of sounding smug, I'll keep it short.  Just wanted to say, I'm inexplicably happy with my quiet little life.
