Happy December everyone! Can you believe it is December 10th already? This is how I know I'm not the best blogger because my Happy December post is being posted on the 10th and I still have yet to share a gift guide with all of you. Let's be real, while I LOVE looking at gift guides, I can't create one. Maybe it's not that I can't, I just don't want too. Anyways, it's the middle of December, we are 15 days away from Christmas and I've over here still trying to figure out how to slow time down.
I had all these huge plans for "the holidays." Bake cookies all the time, watch every Lifetime and Hallmark Christmas movie, watch Elf at least 15 times, drink Baileys on ice. Where is the time going!?
I still haven't mailed my Christmas cards yet.
Anyways, it's December so therefore this post is technically a throwback. I had the best Thanksgiving and I want to share it with all of you. Adam and I ventured to Arizona for Thanksgiving and had the best time eating dinner outside, taking too many photos and enjoying time with our family and friends.
I wish holidays lasted for so much longer than they actually do.
<3 family
sisters
my little nephew
my hubby.
I hope you all had the best Thanksgiving ever!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! If you're celebrating like me today, you're outside, drinking wine, stuffing your face with turkey and taking thousands of pictures. Regardless, I'm hope you're happy, full and celebrating all the wonderful things we have to be thankful for.
Are you ready for this list. I've got a lot and I love listing it because when I'm feeling sad or down, I turn to this blog and this post and I'm instantly reminded of how insanely blessed I am.
What are you thankful for today?

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, hooray! Today I am spending the day with my family, especially my mom, helping her prep for the big day tomorrow. Spending time with my mom is the absolute best. Cooking with her and learning from her is even better. I'm so lucky to have a mom who is practically Martha Stewart.
Every since I can remember my mom has always hosted Thanksgiving. I honestly never remember being any where else for Thanksgiving until Adam and I started sharing holidays. My mother is the perfect host. She reminds me of Monica in Friends when Monica "is always the hostess". Lets be real, my mom is the best host, so why go elsewhere.
I am so excited to spend thanksgiving in Arizona. 3 full days of sunshine, family, great food, delicious wine and everyone I love.
TODAY, I am grateful for Arizona. I am grateful for my huge family. I am grateful for a place to call home. I am grateful for the beautiful blue skies, the green cactus' and the fact that I know my way around everyone. I am thankful for too many pictures, laughing until it hurts and hugs that last forever.

It's really easy to forget to be thankful. I know that sounds terrible, but let's be real, it's the truth. It's easy to look at the world and everything going on and forget to be thankful that we live in the Land of the Free home (because) of the brave. But today I am celebrating everything I have to be thankful for.
I love thanksgiving because it is a day, an entire day, 24 hours where my entire focus is on being thankful. Emily from Ember Grey is currently doing A week of Grate(full)ness and I just love this idea. An entire week spent realizing how lucky I am (& we all are) and how grateful I am.
TODAY I'm grateful for a warm house, a warm bed and a loving husband. Sometimes I rag on our apartment because I have dreams of a home, but today I am so grateful for a place that Adam and I have made home together. I'm grateful for Adam and his enduring love. I'm grateful that I have food on my plate every night. I am grateful for all the things I sometimes take for granted.
