NYE

December 29, 2015 By Ruthie Ridley 48 Comments

After Christmas, I almost instantly have this feeling of, “ugh…. noooo, please don’t end”. In fact I feel that coming on 1/2 way through the day on Christmas day itself and have to stop myself and say, “Enjoy these moments!” Theres this short low followed by an instant sense of excitement an hope for the next year, the following day. I am exceptionally excited about 2016. There is really nothing like a fresh start and the anticipation of what is to come.  I have very high hopes that 2016 is going to be a great year! Before we get too ahead of ourselves, 2015 is not over just yet!
NYE is just days away, and let’s be honest, us ladies are always looking for outfit inspo! Katie and I styled these two looks below, and also linked up a few of our faves for this years’ NYE’s celebrations. Who doesn’t love getting dolled up a few times a year?!  New Years Eve is definetly one of those times to go all out!!  Let us know what you think of our top picks! Thanks so much for stopping by the blog.  Much love,
Ruthie xo

    Good blog post. The things i would like to make contributions about is that computer memory is required to be purchased should your computer can no longer cope with what you do along with it. One can set up two RAM memory boards with 1GB each, for instance, but not one of 1GB and one with 2GB. One should make sure the maker’s documentation for own PC to make sure what type of memory it can take.

    I have been browsing online greater than three hours today,
    but I never discovered any fascinating article like yours.
    It is lovely value sufficient for me. Personally, if all web owners and bloggers made just right content material as you
    did, the internet will likely be a lot more useful than ever before.

    I’ve been browsing on-line more than 3 hours these days, but I by no means discovered any fascinating article like yours.
    It’s pretty value sufficient for me. In my view, if
    all site owners and bloggers made excellent content as you probably did, the
    internet will likely be much more helpful than ever
    before.

    Unquestionably believe that which you stated.

    Your favorite justification appeared to be on the net the
    simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while people think about
    worries that they just don’t know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the
    whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal.
    Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

WHAT IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST MIRACLES YOU HAVE EVER WHAT IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST MIRACLES YOU HAVE EVER WITNESSED GOD DO IN YOUR LIFE?!✨🫶🏾🕊️❤️‍🔥🙌🏾🙏🏾🤍

I’ll go first!! Earlier this week I was just thinking about how faithful God has been to me over the years! I think we all go through different highs and lows, but it’s so good to stop and look back and remember what God has done! 

Back in 2008 when Ben and I just got married, the market had crashed. I had purchased a home on my own in CT- We lost the house and our cars were repossessed - I honestly felt like we would never recover from that!!! Not to mention, I felt so much failure and shame attached to that season!

Fast-forward to 2019, we begin working with our dear friend  @cody.d.williams  on purchasing our very first home together and he told us all the work that needed to be done with our credit,etc. we took a year and did everything we could to get things right! Not only were we able to purchase our first home together in 2019, but everything from the past was no longer a factor & two years later we were able to purchase an even more magnificent property that we now call home 🏡 

Why was this a miracle for me? I think because I thought we would always be behind & nothing would ever change. We rented for 7+ years before we were able to purchase a home as a married couple and that started to discourage me! 

Just a reminder that little miracles happen everyday and that your worst is never the worst.  God can turn your situation around in a moment!!! The BEST is yet to COME!!! Keep believing ⭐️

Earlier this week, I had the privilege of spending Earlier this week, I had the privilege of spending some quality time with other incredible creators at a retreat with @parkermanagement 🤍 It really felt like a retreat for my soul ✨Napa is also reallly good at forcing you to slow down and take in the gorgeous views 😌

Spending time with these wonderful humans this week reminded me that I still belong here, even though I might not look like everyone else (or feel like I fit in) that’s the beauty of it all right?

I think after doing something for a very long time and in this space specifically, it’s easy to feel imposter syndrome, self doubt and the inability to “keep up”. Although an app or an industry has changed over time it’s so important to stay true to yourself.

 So grateful for this time away & I’m leaving with my cup overflowing! God is always on time with these types of things. Just when we need another boost or some encouragement, He sends all the right people your away! He is just good like that 🤩
