Happy Monday Lovelies!! We’re in the home stretch before a super long weekend…that is unless you’re one of the lucky ones to have this week off – in which case…I’m slightly jealous!! The weekend before Christmas came down to these fun times!
I’m going to sound like a broken record here, but seeing the city all lit up is just the best!! We had to stop and take a selfie in front of the tree at Faneuil Hall before going to a welcome home party for a friend of ours from London!
The people atSugarfinamust have known that I was deeply obsessedwith their gummy bears because the Boston store opening was on Saturday! I scooped up a few boxes of the champagne gummy bears and it’s pretty safe to say if you’re on my Christmas List you’ll be getting this sweet treat!!
Oh and if you happen to be in the market for a Tesla you can sign up for a free test drive at the store front…can’t wait for ours!! No, we are not buying one for ourselves….LOL!
We had our final Christmas party on Saturday night and our friends hosted us with so much good food!!
Sunday brunch was at a new to us place,Brothers Restuarant! I’m not sure how I made it this far in life without having tried french toast, but challah french toast is amazing and we’ll be going back!
Also got to watch my favorite holiday movies – The Elf & The Holiday…this time of year is the best!!
Starting the week with these two quotes!! How was your weekend? Link up below to share it with us!

Ugh, I'm not even one of the lucky ones that get's a super long weekend. I only have off Friday 🙁 Oh well. All the lights in Boston are so pretty! And that French toast looks amazing! I had never had French toast until recently either so you aren't alone there. Happy Monday love! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
Sounds like you had a great weekend. I have watched Elf at least 4 times but I haven't watched the Holiday yet, must get on it. Hope the week goes by quick for you.
We watched the Holiday too. Our friends drive a Tesla, love them!! You're looking good in it!! I want a Sugarfina, so adorable and I'm still craving those Champs gummy bears!! That french toast looks like it needs to be my breakfast, lol! Happy Monday gorgeous, here's to a Merry week ahead!!
Looks like such a fun weekend! That french toast is making me hungry for something delicious this morning. Sadly I'm not off all week.. But can't complain about a 3 day work week!

Yay for a short week! I now must try champagne gummies! They sound so good! Elf and the holiday are seriously the best movies! I'm going to put them on my to do list to watch this week!

SO excited it is almost Christmas! Looks like you had a great weekend. So awesome that store just opened by you…very convenient! I love french toast, although I never order it. I think I am just too biased towards my mom's french toast. It looks so good though! Love the first quote at the bottom…it is so true!
Today is my last day and then I'm off till right before New Year's, thank goodness for banked PTO time! Boston around the holidays is so magical, love seeing all those gorgeous lights lit up!
Such a busy and fun weekend! I'm kinda drooling over those gummy bears- what a fun friend gift! I think I got a new favorite Christmas movie this weekend- 4 Christmases was so cute!
That french toast looks YUM! And the city looks absolutely gorgeous! This time of year really is the best!

Champagne gummy bears?! Yes please! So glad you got to try french toast, it's one of my fav weekend breakfast choices and super easy to whip up at home. Cheers to a fabulous short week <3

Isn't the tesla so smooth?! We looked at one in LA and my husband hasn't stopped talking about it! It's not practical at all in Texas yet (though we are seeing more and more of them), but it's such a snazzy car!!
I love Tesla’s! I bet they’re amazing to drive!
y'all are so cute under those lights – it's just perfection in the city! that's rad you got to go to the sugarfina opening – those gummy bears are so yum! and i'm still shocked you hadn't had french toast before. it's one of the only sweet breakfast items i like! ok now i'm hungry haha

I would love to see Quincy Market/ Faneuil Hall at Christmastime! We actually have a Tesla test drive scheduled next week, down at the Boca Raton dealership! Though I think all that Scott wants to do is play with the buttons!
This looks like such a fun weekend! Teslas are so cool! That french toast looked so amazing!!

Back it up….you never had french toast before this weekend??? Say what?!?! The one you ordered looks delicious!!! I love seeing all of your Christmas city decor pictures! So much fun!!! I am going to have to get my hands on some of those gummy bears, they sound amazing. Hope you have a great, short week!
Yum sugarfina! And Elf is the absolute best. Have a great weekend and very happy holidays! Xo
I LOVE that plaid cape/cardigan!! Those pictures of the city lights are beautiful too. Looks like a wonderful weekend!!! I'm glad that you had some fun. 🙂
Oh I love Sugarfina – how fun that you got to visit their store! Last night included my annual Elf viewing as well, tis the season 🙂
Perfect holiday weekend! Hope you aren't too busy with work this week & you can continue to enjoy all of the Christmas fun & lights 🙂
Seeing everything all lit up is definitely the best during this time of the year! Those champagne gummy bears sound amazing and delicious! You can't go wrong with watching The Holiday or Elf during Christmas, they're just such good movies!
Boston looks beautiful with all of these lights!! The opening of the new store looks really chic too. I feel like stores that look really nice make me more inclined to buy something.
Are you buying the tesla?? Or just test driving it, how amazing is that??

I've got to watch The Holiday – Fun Fact – I just found out my husband loves that movie! WHAT? 🙂 haha
Those pretty lights could never get old! Sounds like you had a busy weekend with friends. Champagne gummy bears?! Yumm and brunch on Sunday is always a good idea! lol So funny it took you this long to try french toast.
Looks like a fun weekend! 🙂

I have zero motivation for work this week! Also, are you seriously getting a Tesla?? If so, you need to post all about it because I am very intrigued by those cars. And I just cannot believe you've never had french toast until now! Who are you?!?!
I love it when cities go all out with their Christmas light decor!! Your holiday scarf and tunic/sweater are so gorgeous and look great! Definitely adding the champagne gummies to my party list! I still need to watch Elf this year!
oooh I sure wish I was on your Christmas list to get some of those champagne gummies!!! And challah french toast for the win!!!
I always forget to watch The Holiday every year! I better get on that! Challah french toast sounds to die for!

Big cities are the BEST during the holidays – all of the lights and the festiveness is just so magical, definitely miss that about Chicago! And girl, I can't believe it took you so long to have french toast!! Better late than never though, right?!? Happy Monday!
Adam is obsessed with Tesla, he would have loved a test drive. Looks like a great weekend!
That french toast looks amazing as do all the city lights! Love all the holiday festivities that took place, especially the Christmas movie watching. I can't wait to get home later and park myself on the couch to watch some more!

How have I never heard of champagne gummy bears before?! They sound amazing and perfect for the holidays. Glad you had a great weekend!
another great weekend is in the books!! i love it. i think you hit all of the highlights for a great holiday weekend–the sights, sounds, tastes. I don't like french toast, but Challah bread version is the only way i'll eat it. glad your weekend was wonderful. and yes, we're in the home stretch!
I totally agree that there's something so magical about a town lit up for the holidays. (: I love driving my little one through the local park so she can see all the light displays. LOVE your tartan cardigan. Looks Burberry? Is it? It's so cute on you!
I love seeing the lights all over the city!
The city looks so gorgeous all lit up for Christmas! We are going to see our local holiday lights display tonight, as long as it stops raining. Those gummy bears sound so delicious, and how fun that you are going to test drive a Tesla!
We haven't watched The Holiday this season yet, but I'm hoping to watch it in the next couple of days! One of my favorites!
Ah that Christmas tree is so beautiful! Boston looks so pretty, it's definitely on my list of places to visit. Have a wonderful Christmas!
