Hey folks… I am still "stuck" but really enjoying my vacation in Cancun. I am over indulging in lattes and smoked salmon! Details to come next Monday…
But for now, I am linking up with Brianna on her monthly ten favorite things (better late than never). She has chosen for this month's theme… The Holidays. For different reasons, Christmas is not my favorite time of the year. Over the last couple of years, it has become a very stressful day. However, there is some stuff that surrounds the holidays that I do enjoy.
- The famous red cups at Starbucks.
- Christmas music on the radio.
- Receiving new Pandora charms from Bidou (hint! hint!)
- Having some time off from work - this year Christmas falls on a Wednesday, my company is giving us the 25th, 26th and the 27th as vacation days!
- Buying gifts for family.
- Since I have no room for a tree in my condo, I still enjoy to decorate with some precious Christmas items I cherish.
- Love to watch a classic Christmas movie. I am thinking that I will re-re-rewatch "Elf" again this year.
- Window shopping at the mall.
- Quality time with family and friends.
- Cooking Bidou's favorite French Canadian holiday meal "La Tourtière". I will post the recipe and instructions on a future December post.
I LOVE link-ups. I am a new blogger and I am still learning the ropes. I have found that linking-up is a great way to find inspiration and I am making a ton of friends doing it... bonus!
Today I am linking-up with Brianna that blogs over at Endlessly Beloved. She hosts a monthly Ten Favorite Thing link-up. This month's theme is 10 things you are thankful for and here is my list:
First and the most important is that I am thankful for being healthy. Without your health there is literally not much living.
The second thing on my list is that I am totally thankful for Bidou. He is the best husband a girl can have. He spoils me rotten!
Third... I am thankful for having such a nice Dad. My Daddy is my best friend and my hero. I love him to pieces and pray to God every day that he will be among us for a very long time.
Fourth... thankful for having a full time job. We use the extra $$$ for all the extra stuff we enjoy!
Fifth... thankful for all the books I can read. Reading is the best pastime ever!
Sixth... thankful for Kloé. She has only been with us for a short period but she brings so much joy and laughs to my life.
Seven... thankful for Starbucks coffee. Especially, for Grande Skinny Lattes :)
Eight... thankful for all of the vacations we take. I try to enjoy every moment of every trip.
Nine... thankful for all of my extended family and friends.
And for number ten... I am very thankful for this list to be over since I can not think of anything else.... :)
