Thanksgiving Fun

It was so hard to go back to work this morning after having four wonderful days off! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

The husband and I went up to my mom’s lake house for Thanksgiving and my in-laws and sister-in-law joined us too. I was too busy eating to take any photos other than of my mom’s adorable country table.

And yes, those are squirrel napkin rings.
We had a great time and ate way too much yummy food. Back to the gym for us this week!
On Friday the only shopping the husband and I did was to pick out our Christmas tree! We opted for a smaller tree this year since the one we had last year was so big it fell over three times. This tree was a breeze in comparison. We also took advantage of the warm weather and put lights up on  the outside of our house….and they look way better than last year! I’ll be sure to share them with you once I figure out the rest of the outdoor decorations.
Also new this year? Wrigley and Henry each have their own tree!
Wrigley happily posed by his in the kitchen. Henry wasn’t as agreeable.
Did you go shopping on Black Friday? I bought a few things online Thanksgiving morning but that’s it. Big crowds at stores make me nervous!

  2. So sweet that Wrigley and Henry get their own trees. 🙂 Brady isn't that lucky, but he does have his own stocking. haha. I don't do Black Friday shopping either. #1 I like my sleep too much and #2 I don't like huge crowds either.

  3. First off, WRIGLEY'S photo on your side bar of your blog, is ABSOLUTELY PRECIOUS and HISTERICAL! Love him in the boots! I have a giant, yellow lab, and I dress him up hahah, cruel right? I think he secretly enjoys it though, as long as he is getting attention!

    Sounds like you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family! Your Christmas tree is so pretty! Amazing job on the decorations!!

  5. I'm glad you guys had a great Thanksgiving too! And I love how Wrigley and Henry have their own Christmas trees. Such a cute idea! I might have to get little Toby one too!! 🙂

  11. What a pretty table! I LOOOVE that the pets got their own trees- how cute is that!? I refused to go out on Black Friday, and so far haven't found anything great from Cyber Monday, either. Booo!

  12. Love that the babies get their own trees! And you are just like me in the sense that big crowds at stores make me nervous! I would have a mental break down! AGH! I don't know how they do it?!

  13. Your Thanksgiving looks WONDERFUL and your tree is BEAUTIFUL!! (Your last one fell over THREE times?! What on earth?!)

    The squirrel napkin rings are too funny! I love them and the entire look of the table!

    I'm with you on black Friday…ain't doin' it!
    xoxo

    Have a good week! (Oh-and we'll be in the gym this week too haha)

  14. Your tree looks great! I went out at about 7:45 on Friday morning, and it was completely dead at my Target. Completely stocked shelves but no people, I was loving it!

  16. Sounds like a wonderful Thanksgiving, your moms table decorations are too cute! Love that you got Wrigley & Henry their own tree!

  19. Everything looks adorable, there's something about this post that brings me the whole Holidays nostalgia… oh… Christmas in the U.S is just the best ….

  21. I love that your animals get their own trees!! While I love my roommates cat he will not be getting a tree haha! A stocking filled with goodies will be his treat! I braved the Black Friday crowds and surprisingly it was not that bad, however I only bought four things and shopped for almost 10 hours – it was kind of a bust 🙁
