Thankful.

Wow, what a fun relaxing weekend this has been. After working 11 consecutive days at my store, I was so THANKFUL to have 3 days off. Friday, my sis in law and cousin went with me to Atlanta market and then Commerce Tanger Outlets to do a little Christmas shopping! We had such a fun {and exhausting} time. Then Saturday I met friends in Greenville for lunch and did even MORE shopping. Needless to say, my legs have felt like they were going to fall off today. It was all worth it though- I picked up lots of cute Christmas decor we needed {there was so much on sale at Hobby Lobby, everything 50% off and Garden Ridge trees were 50% off! Sweeet.} and have managed to do a little decorating and put up 1 of 2 trees in our house. Guess we will tackle the main one next week!

Now, we are SO ready for Thanksgiving - it's one of my favorite holidays. I love getting together with family and friends and just being thankful for all the Lord has blessed us with. Chad's dad always fries a turkey the night before Thanksgiving and all of our family/friends get together and have a blast. Then Thursday we stuff ourselves with more turkey and dressing than we can hold and Friday it's work for me from 7am-7pm at Sugar's Day After Thanksgiving Sale :) Aaaah... so much to look forward to this week. Can't wait!

Today I am thankful for the time spent with wonderful family and friends this weekend, plus my husband and I spent lots of quality time today working on our house/decorating and I am very thankful for him. {especially being so helpful today!}

There is "so much to thank Him for..." this week. What are you thankful for?

Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving week,
