DECORATING FOR THE HOLIDAYS

Happy Friday!  We are officially sixteen days away from Christmas. Even though our tree is out, the kids want us to try a real tree this year. I am not sure if it’s worth it since our Christmas trees are picked the first business day after Christmas by the city. So we won’t enjoy we won’t be able to it enjoy as much. I might end up buying a little one for their bedroom because the holidays are all about making everyone happy and merry.

I don’t know about you but every year I like to change things up a bit when it comes to our holiday decor.This year, I’ve gotten rid of a lot of stuff that I’ve not used over the past few years and picked new ones from Amazon.ca. The prices are just unbeatable and even lower now that Christmas is fast approaching. Thinking of getting this 9-foot tree for our dining room for next year. Below you will find a list of items I’ve purchased and a few others I am sure you will love. I am adding some storage items there as well because the seasonal decors have to be stored somewhere right? Also if you are an Amazon prime member you can receive these items in no time. Read More »

Fall Transitional Wish List | Plus Size

Fall Transitional Wish List | Plus Size- Wide leg-mycurvesandcurls

Phew ! We made it through the first week of school guys. The kids are still working on their sleeping patterns and I am working on making healthy lunches for them. Other than that, we are ready for an amazing year.

I wanted to start today’s post by sending plenty of love to everyone affected by the hurricanes. I was browsing through some photos last night and I could not hold my tears.
