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.
Happy New Year, guys! It's been a minute, am I right? Taking off two weeks from blogging and social media (mostly) was definitely restorative but I truly missed it, something that I never felt in other jobs, which made me realize just how lucky I am to be doing the work that I love on a daily basis.
What a year... am I right? With all the craziness going on in the world right now, here are a few of my happiest memories from 2016. I'll see you again in January with new content and a fresh brain! In the meantime, I hope you have a wonderful holiday season, and enjoy time off with friends and family.
Today, my holiday festivities begin, in a way, as my mom arrives in town this afternoon. Tomorrow we're going to do a massive grocery haul as we have three dinners in a row to host: Mexican food with my uncle and cousins on Friday, Christmas Eve's seven fishes dinner on Saturday (it's an Italian thing), and then a big for Christmas dinner with my family and in-laws.
