It's still early November, but I've been binging holiday movies since August 😄.

It started with a Charlie Brown Halloween....then Thanksgiving and.....then Christmas. Then I had to watch the whole Home Alone franchise. Next I moved on to the sappy Hallmark and Lifetime movies, and now I've landed pretty solidly in the satire and comedy categories.

Lately, I've been watching (or rewatching):
1. Get Santa
2. Ernest Saves Christmas
3. The Hogfather
4. Krampus
5. Trading Places

What's your favorite holiday movie?

Deciding what to wear in your holiday family portrait is a key step in creating frame-worthy holiday pictures.

Here are some classic color schemes for the holiday season:

-->Navy and Crimson
-->Glitter and White
-->Crimson, Tan, Denim
-->Red, Grey, Black

And remember, the cooler weather of the winter season allows for some great accessories for your family photos. Add scarves, jackets, and hats for added texture.

It's officially fall!!!! 🍂

Fall is my favorite season, and I can't wait for the weather to finally start cooling off. I'm looking forward to seeing the leaves turn and loading up on all of the pumpkin-y goodness I can find. 😄

I've started to think about fall decorations, too. What's your favorite way to decorate for fall?

I was looking through some old SD cards for a specific picture, and I came across these photos from my niece's recital last Christmas. 💕 I only got a chance to snap a few photos during the dress rehearsal, but I loved the drama of these images and had to share. (Of course, I had to throw in an image of my little ballerina, too 😉😄.)
