After a very busy holiday season, Anel and I wanted to unwind and connect without our phones or any stress, so we planned a day of massages, healthy eating, and relaxing. On Saturday morning, we drove up to The Mayflower Grace for our luxurious spa day, and it was better than I could have ever imagined.
Happy Friday! The first week of the year flew by, didn't it? I woke up this morning thinking it was Wednesday. Getting back into the swing of work was tough, but I'm feeling high on life today after four super productive days, a successful photo shoot, cooking healthy, vibrant recipes for every single meal I ate all week, and some extra sunshine in the sky.
I realize that blue stripes and white jeans are not exactly appropriate for January, but yesterday the sun came out, it was 50 degrees (practically tropical around here!), and I felt so excited to feel sunshine on my face and soak up some vitamin D. I suffer from mild seasonal depression, and at some point every winter decide I want to move to California.
I shared photos of our sunroom over the summer, and while it looked super cute, it wasn't all that functional. Even though we have three sitting rooms (a formal living room, a man cave in the basement, and this sunroom), we never felt like we had our go-to cozy hang-out family room. That was something that kept gnawing at me, so I knew we had to make a change.
