Getting our #wrightfamilysundayselfie in is getting increasingly harder! (Seriously, check out my #momface 🤨😆) this is the best we got today friends. And all I can say is- #life. Still happy as all get out that they’re mine. Merry Christmas and happy Sunday sweet friends. 🎄✨ (Also, why didn’t anyone tell me that the teenage-tude actually starts to rear it’s cute little sassy face around age.. 🤔ahem, 10.) 😆❤️ From our magical winter sleigh ride... ✨🌲 I live for these little Christmas traditions with my family. ☺️ When Seth and I were dating/engaged we always talked about our “one day”... and it always included lots of babies and horses. I’m not really sure exactly when, but he started asking me, “Do you like horses?” As kind of a little secret I Love you... or maybe as a hope or promise of our future together. And still to this day, he’ll often turn to me with that same look and say, “Do you like horses?” And my answer is an obvious yes. ☺️ horses and babies. And him. Always him. We’re building our “one day” ... and we’re getting there. Slowly and surely with a lot of hard work and passion and chaos and everything in between. And one day, it will finally include our horses. ☺️ #lovestory We started this little tradition five years ago, when Coco was just a tiny babe... and each year the kids talk about it all year long looking forward to our annual Christmas staycation. Its nothing huge really- we pack our bags and head to the mountains for a couple nights to escape the crazy that tends to follow this time of year, and refocus our hearts on each other and on the real meaning of this wonderful Christmas season. There is sure to be ice skating and sleigh rides, gingerbread houses, watching It’s a Wonderful Life, and of course reading the beautiful story of Christ’s birth. It’s all the little things that make this a magical memory for them- But for me, the magic of Christmas is right here in my arms each and every day. Because God gave us the most wonderful gift of His son, these people are mine forever. They are my happy place, my Christmas miracle, and my reason.... and my heart breaks a little looking at this photo knowing one day it will all be a distant memory- so for now I’m holding on with all my might, to these... the best days of my life. ❤️🎄 #motherhood . Thank you @zermattutah for having us. ❤️ Merry CHRISTmas dear friends. #zermattutah Hi friends! ❤️🎄❤️ We’re headed out on a little weekend getaway... It’s one that has been a tradition of ours for years, and one the kids look forward to each Christmas! ❤️ It helps us all slow down a little in the midst of the crazy and reconnect, and I can’t wait to tell you all about it! -(you can follow along on my stories if you’d like!) but before we head out I had to make my tea! Last week when I was sick so many of you recommended the cold buster tea at Starbucks! And friends... it is AMAZING! I have wanted one every morning since, so I decided to start making my own and thought you may like it too! It’s super easy - here’s the recipe! . Starbucks Coldbuster Tea: -bag of citrus mint tea -bag of peach tranquility tea -half steamy lemon juice -half steamy water -touch of honey . That’s it! It’s truly the most soothing tea I’ve had and so simple! Have you had it? Or what is your favorite drink to warm you up In these cold winter months? I’ll share more about our weekend tradition soon- what are your plans? Whatever they are I hope it includes time with loved ones! Happy Friday, and Merry Christmas friends! ❤️🎄 xx
