Things I Love #1

My Christmas Tree!
Granted it doesn't have any ornaments on it, but I still love the warm, happy glow it gives. I'll find any excuse to sit in front of the tree. I'm always sure to tell it goodnight every night as I'm turning off the lights.



Christmas Movies!
Christmas movies are on all the time when I get home! I love it. This is the most wonderful time of the year!



Running!
I've loved this for a while, but my body finally feels healed and rested after the New York City Marathon. I finally feel back in my groove, where I feel like I can fly. Plus the runners' high never gets old.

Traveling!
It seems like the hubs and I are always on the go... because we pretty much are. Last weekend we were visiting his family for an early Christmas, then this weekend we'll be in San Diego until we're in Las Vegas the following weekend! Life sure does move quickly when you're always gone! We're so blessed to do so though.



{Running + Traveling =} Running in New Places!
One of my favorite ways to explore new places is by running. It's even better when the hubs comes along with me. Running through Sacramento was one of my favorite memories of the trip.

    1. There really isn't! Other workouts feel great too, but the endorphins from running are like none other!

  4. Beautiful photos! I don't even celebrate Christmas yet appreciate all of the cultural aspects of it. Gotta love "Elf!"

    1. Haha yes! When I was in NYC I quoted the movie the whole time! "Watch out! The yellow ones don't stop!" and "You did it! Congratulations! World's BEST cup of coffee!" hahaha! I laugh just thinking about it!

  5. I love Christmas decorations. <3 I'm also apparently super behind the times in the world of Christmas movies, so I'm looking forward to watching at least one on Christmas Day this year! :P (I like Love Actually, if that counts!)

    1. Love Actually TOTALLY counts! Hopefully you can squeeze one Christmas movie in this year! It would be a sad Christmas if you didn't! :)
