Morning, loves! Happy, happy Friday to you all. I was up extra early this morning, 4:30am early, as my sissys and I were volunteering at our church for project Hypothermia. Every year, our church opens it's doors to this program and we house homeless for a week. It has become a Christmas time tradition for Babyspice, Sportyspice and myself to assist one morning shift and even though it's an early morning, it truly is a gratifying one too. #ilovemissionwork
Before we get to favors, who here is excited about the
Pantone color of 2016? I personally find the mix of Rose Quartz and Serenity a beautiful contrast to the 2015 color of Marsala. I can't wait to see all the beautifully romantic pieces designers bring out next year. Am I the only one? Oh, okay, moving on to favorites.
Favorite TV Moment of the Week: As you know, we are Peanuts people. We both grew up watching the movies and we also collect Everhart paintings. So, you know we'd check out the ABC special celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Charlie Brown Christmas Movie. I loved Kristen Bell as host and learned so many fun tidbits about the movie and the music. If you can find it On Demand you should definitely check it out. #peanutsforever #cooljoeandbirdie #linusandlucy

Favorite Recipe of the Week: For some reason, Christmas brings out the baker in me. I love to bake year round, but the Betty Crocker comes out every December and I'm constantly looking for a new recipe to try. I found this one earlier in the week and can't WAIT to give it a whirl. Fingers crossed I can find time this weekend and that I don't eat the whole thing upon completion :)! #ilovechristmasbars #gimmeallthechocolate #lookseasyenoughright
Favorite Quote of the Week: #nomorewordsneeded #betheencourager
Favorite Christmas Pin of the Week: Can I have one of these in my house, please? #haveneoughbottles
Favorite Funnies of the Week: Enjoy the giggles, I laughed a lot this week.
Hope y'all have a fabulous FIRST weekend of December. Good luck if your shopping, baking or wrapping. I have some fun plans and can't wait to see your pretty faces next week < 3!
