Sorry to rub it in for all you folks suffering with cold and snow – especially back in the UK – but we are having ridiculously abnormal temperatures here for the first week in December! It’s in the 70s! Talk about Global Warming – seriously! I was out and about yesterday and saw people in shorts and t-shirts again. Now I like warm weather but I like my December to feel like December – I hope it cools down soon so I can snuggle in my sweaters and knitwear again.
Daycare was closed yesterday for random reasons, so I had my son with me all day. It turned into a fun day. He ‘helped’ decorate the outside of the house – not National Lampoon style – but a few lights on the bushes, plus our inflatable 4ft Santa – tasteful if you ask me, with just enough festive spirit:) We then headed off to the Fernbank Museum to see the dinosaurs. There was also a fabulous Genghis Khan exhibit and a fun adventure area for him to burn some energy off. He obviously had fun because when I asked him to tell Daddy what we had been up to he was thrilled to tell him ‘we had Chick-fil-a for lunch!’ – sod the museum.
The tree is also up and finished. I had a lovely Saturday afternoon decorating with the kids, drinking Prosecco and listening to Radio 2 – it’s the little things in life:) I then embraced everything Southern as I cheered on the University of Georgia in the SEC Championship Football game – fabulous game but we threw it away with 15 seconds to go, such is life.
Our salt dough decorations, as promised. These were painted at 7am Saturday – we’re early crafters in this household:
The tree – no idea why we have a blue top:
So today there was a bit of a dilemma when it came to dressing. It was freezing when I was out walking Tennyson at 7am but the weather man has promised it will be in the 70s again today. I opted for my Hudson jeans with a long sleeved t-shirt and my lovely Zara jacket that hasn’t had too many outings (sorry I can’t find either online!). The boots are the Sam Edelman Louie.
Last night I watched The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills – my favorite ‘remove brain and watch’ t.v. – and the Beverly Hills franchise is my favorite. This season I am completely smitten with Yolanda and her effortless beauty. Just watch and see how stylish she is in her white jeans and Hermes belt. Last night she looked amazing in her Lululemon Inspire crops and she was by far the most appropriately attired for their trip away.
