Thanksgiving Weekending

After such a beautiful long holiday weekend, it's hard to get back into my normal routine. But I'm excited for Cyber Monday, as my favorite kind of shopping is online shopping. Cheers to Monday morning coffee and fantastic online deals.
The long holiday weekend was laid back yet packed to the brim full of Thanksgiving prep, Black Friday shopping (on actual Black Friday - none of that Thanksgiving evening nonsense), Christmas tree shopping, and decorating for next week's annual holiday party at the house.
Wednesday, I enjoyed a glass of champs before going to see the final Hunger Games movie. That evening I prepped what I could for Thanksgiving dinner and relaxed on the couch watching holiday specials.
Thursday was all about the parade, delicious food, game night, time with family, and giving thanks.
Friday, I was a bad blogger and didn't take a single photo. Between shopping, going out for lunch, and making the house explode with Christmas cheer I was pretty tired and ended up staying in for the evening.
Saturday was time to pick out a Christmas tree.
We went to a tree farm that had cut your own trees, pre-cut trees, ziplining, a bounce pillow, a petting zoo, hayrides, and food tents. After having some fun, we loaded up the truck with two beautiful trees to officially ring in the Christmas season.
After running some more holiday errands, it was time for some Thanksgiving leftovers, champs, and game night by the fire pit. 
Sunday was all about getting the house ready for the annual party next week, the tree is up, decorations are out, lights are everywhere, and I couldn't be happier.

    it sounds like you had a fantastic weekend and hosted a successful Thanksgiving! I still haven't seen the last Hunger Games movie, so maybe I'll have to convince my husband to take me on a week night date night to see it! I love that you went to a Christmas tree farm to pick out your own tree! We've always done fake because it's so much easier, but I love the idea of getting to pick out your perfect tree.

    Looks like such a fun holiday break! Your Christmas tree looks absolutely perfect! We're boring and always use a fake one. One year we'll have to go for a real one because it sounds so fun!

    I'm absolutely obsessed with the dragonfly china. I think those chargers are some of the most beautiful I've ever seen!! I'm definitely thinking about picking up a few things at the Kate Spade sale. I want to try and sneak over and try a couple on before ordering, but I don't know if I'll be able to make that happen or not. ;)
