Christmas Gift Ideas - My Wish List Or Your Wish List!

Today I've been looking for pretty Christmas gifts from Anthropologie I ♥ my finds and hope they tempt you to do some shopping. My favourite is the Rolling Peaks Gravy/Sauce boats, I think the black and white one is adorable and perfectly suits French style decor...oh and I love the monogrammed mugs, in fact, "light bulb flash"... that gives me an idea!

Click on the images for direct link back to products for further details.

I also couldn't resist these gorgeous items and simply have to have that Leopard belt, I think it would look perfect with a pair denims.

Love this Lace and Lines pullover....

Don't forget if you want to check out more details or order any of these items, the images are direct links to the product or you can go to Anthropologie and browse their store.  

Saturday in the Marais - Street Style

Saturday is the day everyone lives for over here, especially bright sunny Saturdays when it's starting to feel like Christmas. Irishman and I headed east to the Marais, that centrally located neighborhood that holds the Centre Pompidou and is just across the river from Notre Dame. Historically the city's Jewish quarter, the gays have also adopted it as the center of their nightlife, and, as

Happy Birthday Lillie

Today my precious little Lillian Annabel turns four! I cannot believe it. Where has the time gone? Here are some of my favorite photos of her from this past year.

I had planned on having a couple of other things in this post but I am having trouble keeping my eyes open so I will have to save them for the next post.

I hope you all have a blessed Saturday!

3rd Annual Snowflake Breakfast: Scout + Mickey

Our friendly family elf, Scout, is back once again for the holiday season!!!  He flew in last night and worked his little elfin fingers to the bone preparing perfectly elf-sized portions of breakfast favorites for our third annual Scout's Snowflake Breakfast.  And this year, the jolly little elf teamed up with our favorite mouse to announce a grand surprise for the littles…




…we’re headed to DiSnEy WoRlD in SIX dAyS!!!!!



Scout donned his very own set of miniature ears for the affair and dazzled the littles with his requisite elfin sized eats.  All of the decor was left over from the baby’s Mickey Mouse birthday party so it was a snap to pull together and Scout didn’t spend a dime (hear that Honey??)!

 

Mother made the positively DARLING stockings for the littles.  We’ll use these for their “Messages from Mickey” treats while staying at the mouse house.





Mickey silhouettes dressed up mini fruit cups.



I used toothpicks to stick donut holes (Trader Joes) to mini powdered donuts (Publix).



Scout always brings tiny strawberry yogurt cups topped with granola and they are always a hit.  Mini apples were too cute to pass up when I spied them in Trader Joes.



Mini ego waffles were stuck together with toothpicks to make Mickey heads.  I ever so briefly thought about making mini Mickey pancakes, but quickly realized just how early that would require me to wake up and nipped that idea right in the bud.







 

To say the littles were excited would be an incredible understatement.  They came into the kitchen totally unsuspecting…





…and were still in disbelief even after we confirmed that he “read it right"!
 




I might as well warn y’all now that this blog is going to be busting at the seams with all things MICKY MOUSE for the next couple of weeks. :-)

SIX days, y’all!!
xoxo
