Lights, Tigers, and Bears...Oh my!

The Christmas Season is one of my most favorite seasons.

This time is so magical and a beautiful way to wrap up the year.

Christmas lights are probably my favorite part of the season.

Three years and counting it is now tradition to visit Christmas at the Zoo 

for the best display of lights, hands down.

{Tip: visit with your besties to make the trip even more memorable}

A few of the many attempts to get the perfect selfie

My most favorite part...

Being able to begin the tradition with my husband!
After 3 years of spending the Holidays in two different countries
we are finally together for our very first Christmas together.

Most animals were cuddled up and sleeping but we sure enjoyed the thousands of lights that lit up our way from one end of the zoo to the other.

Well, hello there Big Ben, am I in London again?

I promise that is Andrew and I and not just a random couple

Every year there is this tree and it is always one of my favorites.
Isn't it just beautiful?

We couldn't leave without going to see Santa {from afar} and
decorating cookies in Mrs. Claus' kitchen

Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Hope everyone found the magic in the season and their hearts were warmed with family, friends and so much love.

12.13.14 - THIRTY!

I turned the big 3-0!

It is a new decade sure to be full of adventure, love and blessings.  

Of course I celebrated all weekend.  What else would you expect?

The celebration began on Friday with the best framily a girl could ask for.  The night was complete with yummy food, good laughs, lots of love, and ice cream cake {my absolute favorite}! 

The celebration continued on Saturday {my actual birthday}, where I learned so much about my strength and the love that I hold in my heart.  It might not have been the 30th birthday I was dreaming about but, I believe everything happens for a reason and that I was in the right place at the right time.  I started this new decade with more strength than I ever thought I had and I see that as a blessing that will take me far in this next decade of life.

Sunday was a beautiful day.  

A day I will forever hold close to me.  

Wine Shake at Hopwood with my love

Amazing dinner at California Pizza Kitchen

Love. Christmas Lights.  Downtown Indy

The night ended with birthday treats and a Christmas movie on the couch!

This.  Summarizes me perfectly!

Thank you to everyone that made my day and weekend one to remember.  

Here is to a new decade and new adventures.

Thirty is going to be amazing, because I will personally make sure of that!
