small joys.*

{The shortest day of the year has come, and more importantly, gone!}

This week has been pretty great! There's something about the impending holidays that has me in a great mood despite all of the last minute things that need to get done. We'll be in the motherland for ten days or so and I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone and relaxing.

{We hosted a small brunch on Saturday, as our first event in our new place.}

{This candle is amazing! I'm not kidding, both Nick and I are obsessed with how it smells.}

{Christmas goodies from our movie night on Sunday. I would have photographed more of the haul but they may or may not be gone.}

{Early, lovely Christmas gifts, from lovely people.}
