Hello – we are back in the Bay Area after an incredible week in Los Angeles.  My goal in the next two days is to detox a little bit before the big New Year’s Eve night.  Not sure if it can be done, but I’ll give it a try.

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and got in some family time over the past week.  I took a few days off last week from blogging, but happy to be back!

These photos were taken from one of our walks down 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica.  This is one of my favorite places to visit in LA because of all the cute restaurants, coffee shops, and of course, shopping.  During Christmas, 3rd Street gets even more lively and entertaining.

Still deciding on what to wear for NYE, but plans are starting to shape up for the year’s most glittery and sparkly night.  What are you doing to celebrate?  Please share!
