So nice to venture out a bit more again! Popped by So nice to venture out a bit more again! Popped by the @achotelscottsdale last night for a little tour and a little 🍷. Tomorrow, it’s sports and enjoying this amazing weather. What are you up to this weekend? 👇🏽👇🏽

BYE, 2020! Are you staying up until midnight tonig BYE, 2020!
Are you staying up until midnight tonight or headed to bed? 

I have zero intentions of staying up partying, unless it’s in my jammies and with Netflix! 

It’s the 2020 way, after all. And I intend on honoring that. ✨🥂💗
Wishing you a merry Christmas from our family to y Wishing you a merry Christmas from our family to yours! 
I’ve spent the whole day thinking about what this year has brought us. And how much we’ve all been through in such a short period of time.

Truthfully? It’s almost too much to digest. 

But isn’t it funny how we all soldier on even as we think we’ve been served more than we can handle?

I’m constantly amazed at the resilience we all have. How we’ve been pushed to the max, and then some. 

And yet, there is so much beauty and growth in this it would be remiss to ignore it.

I’m filled with so much gratitude for this and all of our blessings. (And not in a cheesey IG #blessed way with a photo of a brand new car). But a true, deep sense of gratitude for our family and health this holiday season.

This year might look different. But it is no less joyful or love-filled than any holiday before it. 

And I hope yours is, too. Sending lots of love and good wishes your way! 💗💗🎄🎄✨✨

To last year’s Slava. This one will be a lot quieter. 

Minimal table setting since our decor is stuck in storage. 

No guests outside our bubble and missing those who can’t celebrate with us today.

Luckily, we still have: plenty of love, family, health, food and lots to be grateful for this season. And that’s more than enough. ✨✨ #LWMstyle #slava2020
GIFTS WITH HEART Loving this gorgeous piece from @ GIFTS WITH HEART
Loving this gorgeous piece from @eliafulmen [ad] as a reminder to stay grounded and remain at peace, something that's easily lost in the chaos of motherhood (and 2020).

These are all 14k gold vermeil and just stunning. I love that you can choose a charm that feels empowering to you and the necklace can be worn so many different ways!
