Can you believe Thanksgiving will be here next week??
I just wanted to take a moment and let you know how thankful Rich and I are for you and how much we appreciate your support of the blog!
We’re a little sad because we won’t be with our extended family for the holiday weekend, but we’ll do a zoom call with them, and try to make the most of it!
Here’s wishing you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving!
What we’ve been up to this week
Last Saturday we started our Christmas shopping with a trip to Disney Springs!
We had a wonderful lunch at The Polite Pig and then shopped at some of the stores.
It feels so good to have part of my Christmas shopping done!
The picture below is at
Disney Springs last year because I forgot to take my phone out and get any pictures while we were there!
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas inside our house!
I pulled all of the Christmas boxes out and started decorating.
We store most of our decorations in Home Depot moving boxes, so some spaces look like we’re packing up to move out!
Other spaces look like a tornado hit.
I hope to get most of the boxes back under the stairs before Thanksgiving!
Let me know in the comments below when you decorate!
What we’ve been up to on the blog
We shared holiday gift guides for the special people in your life!
If you haven’t started Christmas shopping yet you need to check out this post!
We have nine gift guides with items everyone on your list will love!
Have fun shopping!
On Wednesday, we teamed up with the other Fabulous Friday hosts and six bloggers (who consistently link to our party) for our first Link Party Blog Hop!
The theme of the blog hop is Christmas entertaining and you will get tons of ideas and inspiration!
Rich and I shared our seven best tips to get organized for holiday entertaining and our Christmas planner!!
The Christmas checklist has all the tasks you need to get done, broken down for the four weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas! And lots of lists to keep you organized!
You can get the free planner by signing up for our email here!
And now it’s time for the Fabulous Friday Link Party!
I can’t wait to see what all our friends have been up to on their blogs!
