a little bit of sparkly snow


I honestly can not believe it is December second. I know you probably feel the same way. I love the Christmas season more than anything and want to savor every single thing I can about the blessing that it is. I want it to go slowly and sweetly and be covered in sparkly snow and twinkle lights. I hate the moments when the holidays become overwhelming. Decorating my home always helps me find the deepest anticipation and I admit that we have already been in heavy decorating mode over here the past week.


This morning I took some time to make a little snow village in my candy jar display in our entryway. I love how it turned out and so do the boys. They were really mesmerized by it to be honest oohing and ahhing over the sparkly snow.


The easiest of projects just some epsom salt poured into my vintage jars and then I added some bottle brush trees, deer and a putz Christmas house too.



Easy and magical are the best kind of projects to do this time of year so it was a perfect pause for me today to thank God for the love He has for us sending us the sweetest gift in his son Jesus.



I have lots of other Christmas projects planned for our weekend and so many more things I am just dying to share with you all too.  But now I must take my little ones to yet another doctor appointment. Praying that Josie will miraculously be able to get her cumbersome cast off early - oh that would be the best!

Happy Friday friends may your weekend be filled with something magical...honestly some real snow around here would be perfect in my opinion!
