Last week, I attended Holly and Ivy at the NYJL. This annual event includes a festive lunch and a shopping experience. It’s so popular at the League that tickets are hard to get, and I’m glad I got to snag one.

I had a great time with friends and got some cute things for Christmas.

Yum!

Advent Calendars

Tis the season for advent calendars! This year I splurged on a few.

I got my daughter a unicorn-focused one with jewelry and toys.

My cats are sharing one filled with toys.

I splurged on a whiskey one for my husband. Bonus it came with two glasses 😉.

Since I’m looking to learn how to crochet, I got myself a Wooble advent calendar, and I’ll be crocheting cute little animals 🥰.

Are you an advent calendar fan? What is yours?

I must say, my daughter has been booked and busy with Halloween parties this year.

Last Friday, we attended the YMCA’s Fall Family Festival.

On Tuesday, we went to the New York Junior League’s annual Lil Goblins party.

Today, Maxi played and made slime at Puzzles in Astoria. We also did some trick and treating on Ditmars.

She wanted to be a unicorn

Fun times!! Now, I’m looking forward to Thanksgiving.
