Frame This Moment - Festival of Lights ✨

Happy, happy Thursday!!! And Frame This Moment Day!! Today's little snapshot is from a from new-to-us outing that we adventured to this year, and it sure was a special and fun Christmas one!! 

The Riddick Home for the Holidays 🎄✨

Happy Wednesday!!! I hope everyone is having a sweet week before Christmas!! I wish I could invite everyone over for some tea and "peppermint drink" by the fire this week as we soaked up this cozy season, but I thought sharing some pictures of our home would be the next best thing... 

We tried to simplify a bit this year because with Christmas and two kids and well, everything that comes along with that, it can be a lot sometimes, but this year has felt sweet and cozy and a little "less" of everything has helped my brain a little as well... So, without further ado, here's our very imperfect, but cozy Christmas this year!! I hope you are sipping on a warm drink and feel just as welcomed as if you were here in person!!

Friday Favorites - Thanksgiving Edition 🍂

Aww Happy Friday and Happy Thanksgiving!!! I love a good themed Friday Favorites post, so I thought I'd make today all about Thanksgiving!! A little walk down memory lane, some very Thanksgiving favorites, and some sweet snapshots too. We are headed to Texas in a few days to spend some time with Pierce's family, but this time of year always makes me remember growing up and sheesh, I love a good Thanksgiving morning. The smells, the parade, the being "off school," the amazing food, time with family, football, and the Christmas season right after...it's all the best in my mind... Here are just a few little favorites though for your Friday!!

Here are just a few snapshots for your Wednesday morning!!
