Bits of Thanksgiving

I hope you all had a great weekend!  Our Thanksgiving was wonderful-- we ate way too much delicious food (except Poesy, that kid ate NOTHING) and continued our tradition of building gingerbread houses and watching 'Elf'.  Getting family photos is always interesting... not only is it almost impossible to have everyone's eyes open at the same time, this year it was CRAZY windy!  Poesy is still in a "NO SHOES, NO SOCKS!" phase.  Just in time for winter.  ;))

We spent "Black Friday" holed up in our house, turning it into a winter wonderland.  I never go out on Black Friday-- it's just not my scene.  I always love hearing about everyone else's great finds, I just can't muster up the courage to do it myself.

How about you?  Did you brave the crowds and do any "Black Friday" shopping? Were there any amazing deals to be had?

Weekends Are For...

...thrifting the BEST additions to a collection...

...Saturday morning dance parties...

...taking a little bit of "me" time...

...enjoying the details...

...and extremely special house guests.

What did you do this weekend? 

Weekends Are For...

Taking a break from the giant mountain of laundry to enjoy a walk before the sun sets...

...then realizing that someone small has smuggled a piece of the clean laundry out of the house...

...THEN realizing the said piece of clean laundry is, in fact, a pair of your undies that she has brought out into the great outdoors...

...and then quickly grabbing them and stuffing them into your purse before the nice boy behind the counter of the ice cream shop knows what's going on.

I hope your week is off to a good start!

Weekends Are For...

...taking time to do nothing... even if it's for a short while...

...enjoying the great outdoors...

...eating breakfast on the porch...

...amazing friends who come over and help you get over that "decorating anxiety"...

...going out with the grown-ups when you get the chance...

...and accidental naps.

I hope you all had a great weekend and are getting a good start to the new week!
