Life in November!

I can't believe it's December already! Where has the year gone? I really wanted to get back into these montly picture updates. I always really enjoyed doing them and they are great to look back on. So eventhough I am a couple of days late, I decided to upload Life in November and get back into the swing of things. It's been a busy and interesting month. Check it out!

11-01-2015 -We started off the month with redecorating! Yay! I am currently sleeping in a bedroom with concrete floors and no lights, but that's okay. I am sure it will all be worth it in the end. This is the floor, the wallpaint and the wallpaper we picked out. What do you think? I think it looks lovely!

11-05-2015 - We headed to Amsterdam to see my all time favorite band in concert! The band is called Editors by the way. Good music, beer, no kids... Just something every mom needs every once in a while. Plus, it kinda feels like you're one of the cool kids when you're hanging out at concerts in Amsterdam, haha! I am definitely getting old...

11-14-2015 - Making snowmen out of marshmallows, salty sticks, puffed rice and chocolate pens. Because that's just what you do on cold and rainy days.

11-29-2015 - I just had to include this picture because it was such a precious moment. We were doing some early Christmas shopping and Charlotte found this elderly lady resting on a chair and for some reason they connected with each other. Charlotte crawled up in her lap and they just sat there cuddling together. They didn't even speak the same language but that didn't matter one bit. The lady was very touched by this spontaneous act of love and you could tell she got a little emotional. And for some reason everyone in the store just stopped what they were doing and just stood there smiling at this cute little moment. It really doesn't matter how different you are. As long as you have enough cuddles! The woman got her wallet and gave Charlotte 20 bucks for a present. How sweet is that?

11-29-2015 - I picked up the prettiest purse I have ever seen. I just can't stop staring at it. I am also redecorating my dressing room, so I can't wait for my bag display to be ready. This is obviously not going to be my daily bag, so I would love for it to have a place where I can still see and enjoy it everyday. It's the Mulberry Bow Clutch in Ballet Pink and it's from their 2014 collection. It is pretty much a wallet on chain, and I am able to wear it crossbody, as a shoulder bag and the chain is also completely removable to wear it as a clutch. It's a very multifunctional piece. I was able to pick it up with quite a discount from their factory shop, so that is always a bonus.

11-30-2015 - Going out for lunch with my co-workers. I never do this, but it was so nice to just have lunch away from work for once. Definitely something I plan on doing more often. I had a delicious sandwich wih blue cheese, walnut, pear, honey and red onion. Yum!

Well, that was it! I hope you all had a lovely month. Let's get December going! :)
