Thanksgiving 2014

I hope you all had an amazing Thanksgiving, I swear I am still recovering from a pumpkin pie & whipped cream food coma. Since getting out the turkey fryer is such a production, we make a point to fry just about everything while we have it hot with oil, I know, so very whole 30 of us. We started out by frying up some donuts for breakfast, I just grabbed a random recipe online the morning of, they turned out to be a little cakey, but still good nonetheless. 
Everyone came over around 11, we made bacon wrapped smokies, cranberry brie bites & a cheese tray for appetizers. Somehow we still had room for Thanksgiving dinner. The fried turkey was amazing as always, we gave Eloise her first run at the giant turkey leg!! 😉 She also wore the same dress & bib that Harper wore for her first Thanksgiving, doesn’t get much cuter!

Gold Dress (old from Gap) \ Grey Sweater \ Fur Vest (sold out, similar here) \ Brown Riding Boots (old from Dillards, similar here) \ White Tulle Dress (sold out from Old Navy)
Tassel Necklace \ Birch & Raspberry Moccasins c/o Freshly Picked

Harper was convinced that Thanksgiving would have been better if we “ate lasagna instead of turkey, like polar bears do” (what?!) but she had such a fun day with a house full of friends & family. The guys played their annual game of basketball after dinner, we chopped & shot (with a pellet gun) all of our pumpkins from the Fall & then we took a serious amount of Thanksgiving day naps. Everyone, including all of Harper’s dolls that I found lined up like this on pillows, so cleverly covered up with my solly wrap. The imagination on that girl!!

Another holiday come & gone, so happy to have been able to host again this year & we can’t wait to have everyone back again for Christmas! 
Happy December First!! XO

Impulsively painted this little powder/laundry roo Impulsively painted this little powder/laundry room green and I’m obsessed. Sacrificed just one sweatshirt and my favorite pair of socks because I was way too lazy to change into painting clothes but overall: worth it. Also don’t look too close, 100 year old plaster walls are the opposite of smooth. On the hunt for some fun art next!! Swipe for before and afters 🖤
