Celebrating Winter Solstice

First of all.. happy winter solstice Yule. This house is definitely cozy, filled with mistletoe, smells of pine and cinnamon fill the air. The snow has fallen leaving a cold and beautiful Winter's day. This is a perfect day for a pj day and that is exactly what we plan to do. While fun family movies play in the background I thought I could sit here, witness the calm cuddles on the couches where the children sit still and get cozy. Pj days aren't always filled with complete laziness but they definitely aren't taken so SERIOUSLY. I can get my dishes done and laundry folded without the rush The husband is finally off until the new year which is just really great! Pj Days are pretty magical I have to say, the madness seems to subside, no errands to run, just a time to sit and enjoy the company of each other. It's important for me and my family to stop and take this time, with christmas madness and the rush rush rush, we forget about what this time is TRULY about. Magic, love, warmth, service, and did I mention love?

It is crazy that Christmas is only 4 days away! I still have lots and lots to do baking, wrapping, and sewing, oh my! I actually enjoy each of these so I'm excited to spend the rest of my days before Christmas doing what I love!

It is also crazy that 2014 is coming at FULL SPEED.  Year 2013 has brought so much change and although along came fear and chaos it also brought a new light, a balance, a new blessing to explore and journey through. I'm thankful for the lessons learned and for the change that has been made!

I look forward to this new year and all that may come. I'm hoping that I can view each new challenge as a blessing.

Wishing everyone a blessed Yule! and Happy pj day to those of you like us who just need to chill from all the christmas rush.

So much love!
