I am hoping Santa reads my blog! 
As an adult it gets a little tougher each year to create a “wish list” because most items you can get for yourself.  This makes me appreciate the season for what it truly is about; spending time with loved ones, baking cookies for my family, watching Frozen and Elf with my sister, and champagne toasting with friends at holiday parties. These are what I am most looking forward to this season! But with that being said there is still the giddy little girl in me wanting everything the eye can see and hoping Santa leaves lots of gifts under the tree. Most items on my list this year are things that I need like Photoshop or an experience that I would love to have like taking a Blogshop workshop, but there are still lots of “wants” on my list. 
Ok this wallet really is a need more than a want, my current wallet now is small and over flowing with cash pennies. I am also always in need of new athletic wear, since I work out everyday of the week, my tops get a little worn out. Most of my wants lately seem to be coats and purses. I think the gray color of this coat is gorgeous and none of my current coats have a hood, so this fur hood would be nice to have. Outerwear is a great way to stay fashionable when you walk around when the world can not see your outfit, this includes handbags. I love to switch things up and have a good amount of options to pair with different outfits. Most of my bags are neutrals, so I want to add a little color with this purse. This clutch I think is darling as well. I love to add this print and book to my home decor, giving it a fresh new look and you can never go wrong with a pair of cute pajamas to lounge around the house in while sipping hot chocolate. 
What is on your Christmas list this year?

Head to your next holiday soirée with a gift for the hostess! It is a great and thoughtful way to say “thank you for hosting”. Plus your friend will feel extra happy and appreciative of the gesture. 
These cheese spreaders and ornament will add a little more cheer to the season, or have the entire house smell like the holidays with this candle. If you want to give them something that they may use all year around, these heart plates and bow magnets are the perfect gift. I think this print and book are a darling gift to give. I know I am always a sucker for champagne coupe, and if the hostess loves to throw parties as she seems to, she would be happy to have enough glasses for everyone to enjoy sips of champagne. And of course, for last minute gift, you can never go wrong with a bottle of champagne!
P.S. for a one stop source for gift giving ideas, 
I have created a gift guide board on Pinterest šŸ™‚

Have a wonderful and happy Thanksgiving, may your food be gobble-lishious!
Blogging has been truly an amazing experience and it has a lot to do with all of you! I am really thankful you have helped me make this dream come true. Although it is in the early stages, you have given me so much motivation and inspiration to keep going and I will forever be grateful for it!  I never imagined how much this blog would open up so many great opportunities for me, but the most valuable part of it is meeting and connecting with wonderful people like yourselves.  I love that I  have something in common with all of you through various interests. Thank you for allowing me to embrace my inner nerd and to be overly enthusiastic about everything šŸ™‚
I am excited for what the future holds and to get to know all of you better! Keep your comments and emails coming, I love reading them!
This past year has taught me a lot. It taught me how to not take anything for granted, to appreciate all that I have, and to make the most out of each day. I am deeply grateful for my family this year. They honestly have been so wonderful through all of my craziness during this transitional year. 
I hope you have lots to be thankful for this year!
