{anklecising}

these are what i like to refer to as my anklecising pants. mainly because each ankle feels like you are a 60 year old power walker with 10lb weights attached. fashion and function? what more could you ask from a pant?

{walking in a not so winter wonderland}

it's been in the 80's here in florida. in december. yeah. that sounds about right. i hear there are places out there that have seasons. like, actual leaves and cold weather and snow and all that jazz. but, for now i'm stuck in central florida where people are still wearing flip flops and dukes.

{structure}

i love this jacket. i mean. i really love this jacket. the structure of it. the detail. the slight shoulder pad effect without looking too 80's. and i love the fact that i got it at target. which no one knows. well. until now. happy friday!

{gifting problems}

why is it when i go christmas shopping or any type of holiday shopping for that matter i end up finding the most random things that i "need". i really needed that christmas sticky moustache set and that ugly christmas dog sweater from the dollar section. i did however manage to pick up a few treasures for the ones i love.  i also have a problem with keeping gifts a secret and promptly ran home exclaiming to rey "look! look, what i got you for christmas!" which he replies "um. it's december 1st"

i love this kid.

like. a lot. 

as much as he is a wild terror running around knocking anything and everything over. all the while leaving a trail of toys, brooms and christmas decor as his trail. 

i can't help but laugh and thank the lord for blessing him in our lives for these past 18 months.

mama will always adore you, landon.

{hopscotch}

florida weather is so weird and annoying. this morning i had this sweater on. mid day i was holding it in my hand and ended the day with it wrapped around my waste like a 4 year old that was bundled too much by their over protective mother that morning and had to take it off to play hopscotch. hopscotch is still a thing, right? i'm not that old, at least i don't think i am.

{one with nature}

because some days after eating a lot you have to go run in a field. even if that field is probably rattlesnake, fox and other animals i don't even know about ridden. ok. now it's back to "reading" the williams-sonoma holiday food guide. we all know christmas means filling your belly with chocolate-filled peppermint snaps while dunking them in salted caramel hot chocolate.

{bits & pieces}

november is quickly coming to an end (seriously. where has the year gone?!). here at the lorenzo household we have been in full christmas swing for the past few weeks. it's my most favorite time of here!  here are a few bits from our thanksgiving. 

{fox faced}

i'm lovin' all of these kitschy animal prints that come out during the fall/winter. you can't help but smile when you have a rather large fox face splattered across your chest. except for that last picture. that is definitely not a smile. that's a "can these people just stop staring? is it really that weird to stand near a barn and have your photo taken? just carry on picking up your dog's poop, thanks."

{wedding style}

i hope you all had a great thanksgiving and spent it with the ones that mean the most to you! ours was awesome. ate too much. shopped too much. did way too much and now need a vacation from my vacation. rey and i shot a wedding two weeks ago in downtown orlando. 

so here you have it!

{thankfulness}

what am i thankful for?

i'm thankful for these two.

one of the two made me a wife, the other a mother.

two of my most happiest of days.

life isn't always easy but having these two along for the ride makes it that much sweeter.

xoxo,

rhi aka mama
