Laughter & marshmallows.

Pictured above 👆 circa holidays 2022 with me atop the ping pong table pushing a marshmallow across its surface with my nose – holiday dress & heals on included. We have a teacher in the family and yes, she brings silly games to all that we do. While I can’t remember the exact rules to what led me to this scene, I do know that as it popped up in my phone as a memory – it became a reminder to laugh at myself. A reminder to lens out a bit and take a few things a little less serious. In our house we call this “keeping is light.”

As we further drop into the holiday season & look towards renewed energy and possibilities of a New Year, I give us all a reminder to keep it light, take a few things a little less serious, connect because we are human, pause because we all need it and laugh, let’s find reasons to do that – ping pong tables & marshmallows included.

From our home to yours, sending you a festive hug wrapped in a hygge vibe (nod to my Norwegian roots) and a whole lot of love.

To the peace & pause of this season along with laughter & marshmallows – Laura

Ps, who is willing to bet I won that silly game above? Ha – while I keep it light and can laugh at myself, I still like to compete – even in holiday dress and heals.
