It's beginning to look a lot like

The holidays! I am so sorry for my lack of blogging. I did just write a very long post and then it deleted before I could publish it which I am trying to not see as a bad sign! I would love to say that my absence is because of a busy new job or a fabulous new project but no. I was in a rut where I was not happy with how things were going but I've gotten past it for the most part. Time to move on! What a great time too this is my favorite time of the year with out a doubt. Ill get to my love of Christmas later but first some thanksgiving love.

Family friends food laughter. That was the theme for my weekend. Aunt Diane hosted this year so I brought a centerpiece and pie. Also I had the worst baking disaster to date. I burned bread. I'm still getting over that one. Also I made my first bridal bouquet for my beautiful cousin Emily who got married earlier this month and didn't have a bouquet. Well I think every bride deserves her own! I got to spend lots of time with my amazing parents and sister as well as her boyfriend and lots of other family. Also I was able to catch up with my oldest friend Carlie. We have been friends since our very first valet class! Still my best friend we went to the Nutcracker, it's been 5 years since I was in it and what a trip down memory lane. Being back in the theater where I grew up was a very grounding experience. I gained some new perspective on my life these days(more on this later)

Well enough of my rambling. Here are some pictures. As always I love to eat what you think! Sorry they aren't in order the iPhone blog ap does that!
