Friday Five: Lovin' December

I don't know if it's because I didn't get to spend Thanksgiving with my family and am super excited to see them for Christmas or if my grinch like heart has grown three size, but for whatever reason I am crazy in the holiday spirit this year.  Here are five of the things I am LOVING this December in spirit of Mar's Friday Five Link Up:

1. My runs.  Ok, so I've only done two runs this December so far, but I've been really excited about running lately.  I've also been doing slightly better with cross training woo.

2. SARA BARELLIAS.  I get to see her on Wednesday and could not be more excited!  I saw her in Cleveland with my brother and sister a couple of summers ago and had so much fun.  I've been jamming to her for weeks now in preparation.

House of Blues in Cleveland. Ready for the show!

3. Starbucks red cups.  I know.  But guys, seriously, don't peppermint mochas just taste better when they are in the red cup? ;-)



4. Comfortable things on dark days.  Now that it's getting dark so early I love curling up with fuzzy socks on, a book, and having yummy smelling candles lit.  Not to mention soups and hot chocolate.

Technically it's a fall scent. But technically, it's still fall.

5. I GET TO SEE MY FAMILY!  So soon.  I've had so much fun picking out and wrapping their gifts.  I can't wait to just hang out.





I hope everyone's December is off to a great start! It's shaping up to be a great month to end the year.

    1. Haha I hear ya! For a while I was getting them all year round (they always have the peppermint syrup, just not the chocolate curls...I know, obsessed much?), but then I made the vow to keep them special and only get them around the holidays. They are the best.

  2. I desperately need a peppermint mocha. I honestly can't believe that I have yet to have one this year. Maybe I can solve that problem this weekend :) And, I'm jealous that you got to see Sarah Barellias! My daughter jams out to Brave and it kills me!

    1. Meee too! She's so much fun in concert (and to belt out in the car when you're stuck in traffic...)!

  4. I REALLY want to see Sara in concert! And buy a peppermint mocha. And I've totally been lighting candles and eating soup for the last few weeks :) Great list, Lindsey!

  5. So glad I found your blog! You now have a new reader! I have never heard of Sara Barellias until this year ( maybe I have but I just didn't know it) and am now in love with her music ! Have fun at the concert! Enjoy hanging with your family over the holidays. I see some Steelers hats in that picture. Are you a PA Gal?

    1. Thanks for reading! Sara B. is so much fun! I was a temporary PA girl (my family used to live there), but never really got into the Steelers. I'm more of a college football girl than NFL :) I do love those Pittsburgh Pirates though!
