Thanksgiving

Today is Thanksgiving in Canada, so Happy Thanksgiving to all my Canadian friends! I hope you had a wonderful weekend filled with delicious food and lovely company.

We went down to Hamilton on Saturday to spend time with both of our families. We were lucky enough to fit in two dinners over the weekend and let me tell you, so much turkey and pie has been consumed in the last 3 days! 
 
Even though the weekend was a lot of fun, it was nice to come home today to see the kitties and get comfy in pajamas. It was the perfect end to our long weekend. 

I made a point of being aware over the weekend of what I'm really thankful for during this time. It's a small and simple list, but I'm oh so grateful for it all. 

* The support and love of my family
* My health - even though I'm dealing with some health 'hiccups', I'm very grateful for being overall healthy. You know, not dealing with anything life-threatening. 
* The honest and genuine friendships I have. 


Whether you celebrated Thanksgiving or not, I hope you had a fantastic weekend!

Thanksgiving

Today is our Thanksgiving holiday in Canada. Most people celebrate at some point over the Thanksgiving long weekend with a family dinner. For us, we headed down to Hamilton Saturday and came home late last night. We had a huge Thanksgiving meal and I ate lots of pumpkin pie and cake! Afterwards we played games and drank hard cider and pumpkin ale. It was a great time.


This year I'm thankful for a lot of things in my life. But most importantly my family and friends. It's been a somewhat crazy couple of years for me and I seriously wouldn't have gotten through everything without them in my life. 

If you're Canadian, Happy Thanksgiving!

SALE

It might not have been Thanksgiving here in Canada today, but I did spend my day in a festive mood. We went Christmas shopping to pick up some gifts and decorations for our apartment. Then I came home to bake, decorate the apartment, and sort out gifts. It's been a very good day.

To keep in the spirit of the American holiday today, I've also decided to do a Black Friday sale in my etsy shop. Use the coupon code 'BlackFriday' to get 15% off! My shop has a lot of great gifts for both male and female, young and old so check it out!


Happy Thanksgiving to all my American Friends! I'll definitely be checking out some sales this weekend. My Christmas shopping is still not finished.

Life in Photos

It's a little over a week late but I finally uploaded my Thanksgiving weekend pictures. It was a fun weekend even though I was feeling sick for the last couple of days. I'm so happy I finally made it to the Ball's Falls Festival.

Thanksgiving

To all the Canadian readers, Happy Thanksgiving! It's been a wonderful long weekend and the weather was amazing! We went to the Ball's Falls Thanksgiving Festival, drove into Hamilton for a Thanksgiving dinner, and took a couple of walks around the canal. I unfortunately woke up yesturday morning with a horrible head cold so I haven't been too productive today. I'm hoping to eat some turkey and cranberry sauce leftovers tomorrow, if my taste buds have decided to start working.





Night!
