Thankful Park II

I am headed home today to start the celebration of Thanksgiving, to continue my thankfulness, here is part II.  I'm peacing out on the blog until next week to take a breather and just be.  Have a wonderful time connecting with friends and family!

1. Friends who love to travel, especially Erin and Sarah.  These girls love to plan trips and we have the absolute best times wherever we may be going.  I believe there is a bit of a gypsy spirit in me!
2. My loud, noisy family!  There will be 50+ at lunch for Thanksgiving and I love the challenge of spending time with everyone and yelling over each other in order to be heard.  
3. My grandparents, they are the sweetest souls and leaders of our family.  They are the glue that keep us together and I love spending time with them.  My grandfather is the happiest, sweetest, smiling man you will ever meet, he has never met a stranger and I love seeing his big smile!
4. Music-it is an absolute passion of mine and my vice.  I love all genres of music and love spending time listening to different artists and going to concerts.  I can't wait to sit by our fire pit with a large glass of wine with music playing.

A Place I Love

These Kate Spade sparkly sneaks are my new loves!

Just look at that gorgeous entry way with all the Christmas decorations!

Champs by the fire....cozy with a book

Complimentary handmade desserts from the chef

Sea Island Georgia is a Southern gem that melts my heart and oozes Southern charm, grace and the most ahmazing service a person could ask for.  It is the most breath-taking spot to escape the craziness.  Between the fabulous restaurants, (the Georgian Room was a fave) the best spa I've been to and the gorgeous property, there is not a single thing lacking at this resort.  I can't wait to plan my next trip back, aka see ya in February!

Weekend

I love Haim with a passion, they are such a cool sister-girl group that loves to rock out and puts on a killer show!  Their song, "Falling" is one of my favorites.  Have a fab weekend, I'm hoping to get in some chill time and hopefully a workout (tis the season to eat and drink).

Grateful Part I

Four Things I'm Grateful For.......Part I

1. My Parents: They continue to encourage me to pave my own path and be my own person and for that I am forever grateful. 
2. My Bestie from FOREVER Kippy: We don't see each other as much, especially in the winter months, but when we do it's like we've never been apart.  She knows me better than anyone and we are so alike sometimes it's spooky (Mama Jill calls us twins from different mothers)!
3. My Brother: We definitely have our ups and downs, but at the end of the day we have each others backs.  I know that even if we are fighting or don't agree, he will always be there no matter what and I would do the same for him. 
4. My Nephew, M3: He is the sweetest babe, he just loves to hug you so hard that you melt.  He is such a joy to be around and I can't wait to hang out with him over the holidays.

Robinson Pebbled Mini Square Tote

I am dying for the beautiful mini Robinsons, just look at all the fabulously, vibrant colors offered!  My bestie Kippy and I were discussing how we just couldn't pick a favorite color....I think I may now be leaning toward the hot pink!  Although small, it still fits a lot and let's be honest we should probably all try to lighten our purses to avoid back problems later in life!  Which color is your favorite?!?!

T Swift is Killing it!

Can we talk about Taylor Swift's new album.....this is a judge free zone and I am hooked on it!  It has been on repeat in my car, at work and at home.  I LOVE this video, the glamour, the outfits, the HOT guy, I mean what's not to love?!?!?  Anyways, T Swift, you have my total support....you are killing it girl!

Sweet Plaid

Sweet M3 and Mimi (aka Mama Jill) staring at the fire pit....quite the hit!

I wore this outfit on a visit to see my parents, grandparents and sweet M3, my nephew!  I am LOVING all things flannel to the point that we bought M3 a flannel shirt while we were in Nashville.  The brand Rails has the softest, most buttery flannel shirts, so thankful we stopped into White's Mercantile in Nashville (Holly Williams-talented singer-songwriter owns).

Weekend!

So happy for the weekend and for another low-key weekend as well.  The holidays are fast approaching and I've already started my Christmas shopping to get ahead of the gang. I might have listened to Christmas music three times this week at work, it just makes me soooo happy, so why not?!?!  This song gives me cold chills every time I hear it, Carrie Underwood delivers the most beautiful lyrics in her new song, "Something in the Water."  A powerful message that is perfect for this time of year!
