3 Ways For Moms To Enjoy Winter Moments
Guess what? Winter's in full swing, and we're all about cozy vibes, creative adventures, and making memories! Ever wondered what happens behind the camera during the winter slow season? I'm spilling the beans and throwing in some awesome suggestions for moms to sprinkle joy in the chilly months.
Snowflake Selfies
On a snowy day, head outdoors with the kids and let the magic of snowflakes add charm to your photos. Encourage everyone to capture close-up selfies as snowflakes gently fall around them. The unique patterns of snowflakes make for enchanting and easy-to-capture moments. It's a quick and fun way to celebrate the beauty of winter with a touch of personal flair.
Hot Cocoa Cheers
Embrace the cozy side of winter by having a hot cocoa session with the kids. Prepare mugs of hot chocolate, marshmallows, and any favorite toppings. Capture the joy on their faces as they take the first sip or cheerfully clink their mugs together. These candid and heartwarming moments are perfect for creating a visual diary of winter warmth and togetherness.
Blanket Fort Movie Night
Create a snug indoor space with a blanket fort, complete with pillows and fairy lights. Once the cozy fort is ready, invite the kids to join in for a movie night. Snap photos of their excited faces, the cozy setup, and maybe even some popcorn chaos. This simple indoor activity allows for candid and memorable snapshots that showcase the joy of winter evenings spent together.

2 Fun Things
THRIVE MARKET
I live in a small town and our options are super limited here to find healthy food and ingredients. I'm low sugar, somewhat paleo, gluten sensitive, and I eat mostly organic when I can. Again, thanks 40's.
Not everything Thrive offers fits within my parameters, so I just read ingredients like I do in the store before I add to cart.
If you're wanting to eat healthier this year, go low sugar, and cut out rancid oils like sunflower, safflower, corn, soy, peanut, canola oil and margarine. Those two steps will go a long way towards a healthier year!

THE FAMOUS FLEECE LEGGINGS!
I've never liked lounge wear and leggings before. I'm a straight outta the 90s, jeans & t-shirt kinda girl. But. I'm in my 40s, y'all, and comfort is key. IYKYK. I'm not an affiliate, I just LOVE these leggings. Go check them out, and tell me if you get some! BTW, they're under $30!
1 Pro Tip
BACK UP YOUR FILES!
If you have downloaded your gallery, that's great! But I want to make sure you have your files backed up for life. Don't lose those precious photos to a technical issue. Trust, I've been there. Keeping them on your hard drive is asking for trouble.
Some easy options are on your Google Drive, a Dropbox file, or an SSD card (not an external hard drive, they have a tendency to fail).
Stay Cozy!
