The new year is here and it will be a good year.
2017 is about changes, evolving, uplifting, inspiring, upgrading, helping and encouraging others.
This year is about being the boss of your life. Standing up for what you believe in. Following your own path and walking into your destiny.
Leave all the problems of 2016 behind and move forward to greater things.
I wish all my Beauties an amazing and prosperous year.
Happy Christmas Eve.
Today I had a Girls Xmas Pajama party. We had such as good time. It feels good spending time with girlfriends.
We enjoyed our time listening to music and watching Christmas movies. We had a menu of crabs, mussels, shrimp, chicken and plenty of cocktails.
See pics below of our festivities.
Just one more day until Christmas and I finished 12 days of Blogmas. Yayyyy
I am very proud of myself and hopefully next year I will be able to do 25 days of Blogmas.
I had a wonderful time sharing with my Beauties.
Christmas is the season for giving. Â Today I will share my experience at my daughter’s toy drive. The kids really enjoy their presents and was very grateful for their gifts. Â I feel very blessed to have been apart of this event. I am very proud of my daughter, she did such a good job.
See pics below of the amazing event.
The toy drive was successful. It’s always better to give than receive.
Today at work, me and my co-workers went to the Cheesecake factory to celebrate the holidays. It’s always nice to go out with co-workers to enjoy a nice meal and a few cocktails.
Plus at the office we decorated our desk and the area around it.
Here are some pictures from our office and the luncheon at the Cheesecake factory.

Â
I want to talk about giving back during the Christmas season.
I will be giving back to a toy drive my daughter’s Cosplay Philly organization is having. The toy drive is for children ages 5 to 11. I’m very excited to be able to help out a few kids.
Another organization I gave to was Convoy of hope via Dancember which was started by youtubers Judy & Benji a couple of years ago. Â Donations help to feed children all around the world.
It always feels better to give than receive and it will definitely help you get into the Christmas spirit.
How are you giving back this Christmas season My Beauties?

Lets talk about how to get into the Christmas spirit by staying upbeat and positive.
First thing you can do is put on your favorite Christmas carols, pour yourself a nice glass of wine/beer and start putting up your decorations. Â Next thing you can do is bake christmas cookies, fix your favorite meal or invite friends over for cocktails.
You can drive around your neighborhood searching for the best Christmas lights or stay inside watching your favorite Christmas movies. Â You can volunteer at a homeless shelter or give to a toy drive.
Whatever you choose to do make sure you’re doing it with a smile and remember… Happiness is a choice, so choose to be happy.
