I love this time of year. Its just so good to feel the cool breeze of autumn and see the beautiful colors that surround us this time of year. All of the fun holidays seem to be crammed into the last three months of the year! Halloween is so much fun now that I have a little one. Thanksgiving is by far my favorite holiday and we enjoy our annual trip to the mountains to celebrate our family. Then comes Christmas! How many of us get all wrapped up in to do lists near the end of November? A list of cleaning, shopping, parties and other events! Its never ending it seems and it always calls for an Advil or two!
This year I challenge you to stop with the lists and frantic running. This year the dare is to actually stop with the madness and think about what the real meaning is during the holiday season. It isn't how many times you mop the foyer, its not the dress you wear to the party, its the people you surround yourself with and that you love so much! Its the girl from down the street you'd really like to get to know a little better, its the laughs and smiles and conversations you have with your sisters and daughters. Its inner peace.
This year I challenge you to spend more time smiling and less time rushing. Invite the girls over for a glass of wine and piece of pie and reconnect. Enjoy this beautiful time of the year!
xoxo,
Amanda
