Dreaming of Christmas

The weather is finally starting to cool down here in Sunny Southern California.  And, it's finally beginning to feel a teeny bit like the holiday season.  Though, I'd get much more into the Christmas spirit if I paid a little visit to this dreamy snow-covered cottage.  But, alas I'll just have to settle for playing nonstop Christmas jingles and drinking too many gingerbread lattes.

I hope you all had a lovely weekend and were able to start feeling some holiday cheer.  I'm excited to share with you all a new Monday tradition that I'll be starting tomorrow.  Until then though, have a good night!

Pre-bed tease

I am completely exhausted after this week and, sadly, it's only Wednesday...well, technically Thursday.  I have the problem of going, going, going until I'm burnt out.  Then, I end up spending an entire day on the couch, watching shows like "Mall Cops" and "Parking Wars."  Though I'm looking forward to a night free of plans tomorrow, I have to say I had quite a blast with tonight's itinerary, which was this Blog Out Loud event.  Pictures and details to come tomorrow!  

For now, though, it's off to sleep I go!  I would love to walk into this bedroom right now and drift off to dreamland.  I love everything about it, especially the skyline photography lining the window.

All it needs now is this furry blanket.

And some twinkle lights!

Taking a moment

Today, I just want to leave you with a peaceful picture.  Hopefully, it'll give your Wednesday night a nice little breather like it has mine.  It was a long day at work, and part of me wants to dive deep into this photograph right this second.  But, I'm looking forward to going out and unwinding a bit tonight.  Have a great night, and hang in there - it's almost Friday!

Pure beauty

If I had to imagine the ideal happy place right now, this would surely be it.  The weather would be a perfect Fall day - light sweater, jeans and nothing more.  The only thing I'd possibly add would be a couch or hammock instead of the park benches.  Then, I would lay down and read for hours on end in my little pink paradise.  How peaceful that would be.
