Life Lately : Christmas 2017

Um. Where did December go? This Christmas was super special for us! We traveled from Germany to Georgia to visit our families! 

First stop – Germany and the country of Luxembourg (in which I quickly fell in love with)! I have wanted to go to Germany for.ev.er. and still can’t believe that I was there just a few weeks ago! The design in the architecture blew me away, but I was already expecting that! What I was not expecting was to get the chance to travel to Luxembourg to watch our friend play basketball! (He is a professional basketball player in Europe and grew up with Cory!) Luxembourg is a French speaking country – a language that I love SO much. Their architecture was different from Germany’s, as well, because it was more Parisian inspired. We saw much, we loved it a little too much (I would go back tomorrow and stay until ….) and learned that pepperoni pizza in Germany is not actually topped with pepperoni. 

Next up, Georgia! We stayed at our favorite “cabin” and saw people we haven’t seen in way too long! It was insanely good to spend the day with my family. The dogs sported the cutest Christmas bows for the occasion, too. 😉 (Devo loved it. Winnie hated it.)

With all of the *great* hustle and bustle – I took a “me day” and went for a long walk in Rosemary Beach and Seaside. I actually started off in Inlet Beach. I grabbed a coffee at Amavida in Seaside and went to sit in the Seaside Chapel for a while. They always have it decorated so gorgeous for Christmas!! 

This month was SO good for me. I was lacking on the r & r. I feel so full and so thankful.
