I am finally back from my holiday and am busy trying to catch up with everything. It is amazing how fast e-mails, dust, and errands pile up. Oy Vey! Although I felt terrible for my lack of TLC on the blog, it was a really nice break to wake up and just enjoy the mornings without the stress of putting up a post. I so love what I do, but like any job, time away is always nice. I am sure I lost half of my readers but I am praying you all stuck around because I have some really fun giveaways coming up this month! Hint: two of them are on my wrist! Stay tuned…

Since I am having major Europe withdraws I decided to post a few shots I took while in one of my favorite cities: Geneva. I am not sure if it is because my husband is from there or the beauty of the city but I absolutely love going there. His childhood home is so warm and inviting and his family always makes my stay one to remember. This summer I am headed back over there with my parents so I must find a way to pass the 175 days (who’s counting) until then.

Over Christmas my sweet Mother-in-Law gave me the gift every girl wants: a new Celine. I am not ashamed to admit it is my first big girl Celine, and I am in love! It actually came with a mini version that I have attached a chain to, so I now have a cross-body as well (double score)! It was a little hard being away from my family over Christmas, but my in-laws made it so special and I am grateful that I have such an amazing souvenir to mark the occasion.

stay tuned for more holiday shots and upcoming giveaways!
