Thankful

I thought it was appropriate to share the things that I'm thankful for this time of year.  I get so busy in my everyday life to stop and think of all of my many blessings.


I am so thankful to have a crazy,  wonderful, and loving family.  Without you, life wouldn't be the same.  I love all of you and can't wait to see many of you in December!

I'm thankful for the best husband in the world who I am lucky to call my best friend. I can't believe we've been married for 4 years and can't wait to see what the next 50 have in store for us!  Thank you for being you.

I'm thankful for my furry kids - Vinny and Maci.  They are real sh*theads at times but can't imagine not having them in our lives.  They make us smile every day.

To all our wonderful friends and family, we miss you.  I wish everyone an absolutely wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving.

4 Things from October

I cannot even believe that November is here...which means the holidays are just around the corner. Yikes!  It's been so busy lately that I have completely slacked on getting a new post up.  I thought 4 things from October should quickly bring you up to speed.

• Our sports schedule has been filling up with fall in full swing.  Between Cardinals games (7-1 ... yes, you read that correctly), ASU Football games, and Coyotes games, we have been more than busy.  The Suns just started so lets throw some basketball in there as well.  Jakub is one lucky husband that I have the sport bug!

• Las Vegas! I know, every other post seems as though we're in Fabulous Las Vegas.  Jake and I needed to get out of town to relax for a couple days.  We stayed at New York New York for the first time and enjoyed the resort.  They have great restaurants and the casino is one of my favorites.  I think this is the first time where we stayed the entire time in one resort.  It was nice not having to travel around.

• I've been a jewelry making machine lately.  Darn all these craft stores for having such great sales on supplies lately.  I still have some items for sale and since the holidays are around the corner, now is the perfect time to pick up a couple items! I can always make something custom for you as well.

 

• Vinny turned 5! I can't believe that my furry child has been ours for that long.  It's amazing how attached I am to these two furballs.  He was my birthday present in 2009 from my parents and couldn't have picked a better one (I know, Jake, you chose him!).  He celebrated in true Vinny fashion: new toys, Frosty Paws ice cream, cheese, and treats.  One spoiled furry kid!

Have you started your holiday shopping yet? I actually have a good portion of our list done already.  Hopefully the black Friday sales (online...I would rather be at home in a turkey coma on Thanksgiving) are good this year and I can finish it off.   I'm so excited that we're going to be able to get home to Pennsylvania this year to be with family and friends.

I will leave you with a picture of one of the many reasons I love living in Arizona.....our gorgeous desert sunsets.  #nofilter
