Balance...

The chaos of the Holidays is here.  Are you feeling it?  I am.  Why is such a beautiful season filled with so much stress?  If you know me personally, you know I've been working on balance.  Finding enough hours in the day can truly be challenging... I find myself often wishing there were 36 hours instead of 24.  What is wrong with me?  I'll venture to guess I'm not alone.  Is there ever enough time?  Something always has to give and most times, it's "me-time."  How wrong is that?  If I believed in New Year's Resolutions, mine would be to refocus and prioritize.  But... since I don't... I decided to do it now.  I've refocused and prioritized my life.  I've vowed to take more pictures of my family, so you will begin to see those sprinkled in.  I'll begin to share more of "me," because the "me" in this equation is someone I hope you can relate to.  If you can... leave me a comment and let me know you heard me!!  :)  A VERY big part of "me" is my day job.  I work at Target Headquarters and I love every minute of my life there.  I love my job, I love the work I do, but most of all, I love the people I work with.  You know those people that walk into your life loudly and shake things up, in the best possible way?  Molly is one of those people for me.  She walked loudly into my life and has encouraged, supported, listened, talked, laughed, teased, and so much more.  All the while, she has given me the gift of insight into what's important.  She has led by example when it comes to balance.  She consistently reminds me of what's important, and, she inspires me to be a kinder, more loving, more caring person... which hopefully leaves the people whose lives I walk loudly into kinder, more loving, more caring people as well.  She is moving mountains people... and she doesn't even know it.

I had the pleasure of spending an afternoon with her beautiful family... my time couldn't have been more blissful. 

All about TRUCKS!!

Honestly... he was SO ENTERTAINING!

I would die for those lashes.

Something about this one warms my heart.

One of my all-time favorite pictures.  The chaos is absolutely perfect!  For those mom's and dad's out there who get frustrated when their kids won't sit and smile for the camera... wouldn't you much rather have this on your wall!?!?
