"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles."

Fashionable Giving part 3: The Sports Addict

Bonsoir bloggers! I hope you are all having a terrific week so far and that you are keeping warm in this frigid weather! Cozying up by the fire with a cup of cocoa in my favorite mug has become my nightly routine for sure.
