Merry Christmas everybody! If you've been following along I did this post last year and it actually got a lot of views. As I said last year, more than anything this is a haul. I was gifted some amazing products, including some things I didn't even know existed and I want to share it with you today. I am always so blessed to have such a large family and amazing group of friends to spend the holidays with. I feel like I have to add this disclaimer that this is not a "bragging" post and I am genuinely grateful for everything that I got for Christmas. Consider this more of a haul post and a fun sneak peak into the type of things that I like!

Another successful Christmas has come and gone. I have been working on this post for a while, but because we just had our Secret Santa party I was finally able to share the master list of what I bought everyone for Christmas this year! This post may seem weird at first glance, but it's because I love the presents that I buy everyone because I think (okay, I probably over think) presents for everyone. I just love shopping and shopping for my loved ones is something I am very passionate about. I share what I got for Christmas list every year and as a disclaimer it's not to brag, it's just to share because there are some unique items out there that maybe you too would be interested in, but didn't know it existed. It's basically a haul.. and I'm sharing this post the same way. It's not to brag with how much money I spend on people, in fact, most of these links are now full priced items. I'm an excellent Black Friday shopper so I get good deals on items and hardly ever pay full price. This is just to share different types of products that I found and I linked as many of them as possible broken down into different categories down below. Happy shopping!

I was so busy with Christmas that I honestly didn't pay attention to much going on this month. I keep thinking of these favorites that I have, but a lot of my favorites from this month are the same as last month (like Baby Yoda). I also didn't do much shopping because all the shopping I did do was for Christmas!

The golden year is here. 2020 has the nicest ring to it. If you don't feel empowered by this date I don't know what to tell you. I'm going to sound like every other person on the Internet, but I can feel it in my bones–2020 is going to be my year. There is just so much that I want to accomplish in the next 365 days and what a better way to get the year started than sharing them online with all of you. You all keep me accountable when it comes to my goals and helping me be the best version of myself possible. 2019 was a huge learning curve from me, so many changes in my life that I can't really explain but I knew that I wanted something different for this new year. I have more meaningful and deeper aspirations for this year. I feel as if I've taken the deepest breath of fresh and I have such a new take on life. Goodbye 2019, this gal is ready for 2020.

Happy New Year's Eve everyone! I know that the next few days are all about reflection and what our goals are for the new year, but the truth is you can't have new goals if you haven't learned from your past mistakes. Everyone has learned a life lesson or two this year and today I'm sharing six with you.
