Magic, Noel, Peace and Joy To You This Holiday Season

Around My Town Part 1
With the winter season quickly approaching I thought it would be fun to head out with a dear friend and capture the city in photos before Jack Frost sprinkled his magic wand and covered it in a blanket of white wonderland. I always get so excited to get out into the big city around this time of year. The air has a different smell about it as the hustle and bustle of the holiday season approaches. I live about 30 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City and always find it a pleasure to drive into the city. Whether it be escaping to my favorite hotel "Hotel Monaco

Birthdays
This past week our family has been celebrating "Birthdays" Aysha turned ten on Saturday. I cant believe she is a decade old.

I normally don't decorate with the color blue, however I just fell in love with these plates and had to see if I could mix them in for the evening. What a fun night full of good food, laughter, fun and friendship. Now to take it down and set my fall table... the warm colors of autumn are my favorite!
