Friday Favorites

{These three loving warm-ish December days at our beach} 

Wow. The past week has flown by. It's been a whirlwind filled with a few ups and downs- don't worry, I'm working away on a post about it all to share very soon.

And while there have been a few tears recently, they've all been overshadowed with the joy of soaking in the holiday season.

We hung garland in November, we put our tree up two days after Thanksgiving, we started playing Christmas music way earlier than I care to admit- and I don't regret a second of it. This really is my most favorite time of year, and this year I've been making extra certain to be present in all the  magical moments it has to offer. 

Here are a few of my favorites this Friday:

{Sort of loving this whole Elf on the Shelf thing. Although my husband is killing me in that elf-staging game}

{Beach piggies} 

{These pretty little products from Switch to Pure}

{Chilly days don't slow this ballerina down- all decked out in her Tutu + leg warmers}
