Turkey Day is gone and Christmas has entered our household! This time of year is for Christmas movies (my favorites are White Christmas and Christmas Vacation), Christmas cookies, decorating, and ugly sweater parties. (I've already been listening to Christmas music since early November!) Should we see how many times I can say the word Christmas in this post?? Happy November!

What I'm Reading: I just finished The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah. I.LOVED.THIS.BOOK! It was so good. I stayed up late into the night reading it because I couldn't put it down.

Last Movie I Saw (and Loved!): Mark can't wait for the new Star Wars movie to come out so we are in the process of re-watching episodes 1-6. Not sure I love the movies, but something to watch I guess.

Baby Love: Livia is a jumping bean lately! She loves loves loves her Fisher-Price Rainforest Jumperoo. She's so stinking cute jumping away!

Podcast I'm Listening To: I did listen to Man Repeller (specifically episode 4 with Stacy London) and thought it was hilarious and incredibly intelligent. It felt like I was having drinks with them and have a smart conversation instead of just talking about the day's gossip (or maybe it was like were talking about the day's gossip but in a smart sort of way).

Eating: Thanksgiving went good...the turkey turned out great and the mashed potatoes spectacular. I'm working on my next two weeks of meal planning and will post that soon.

Creating: This weekend we decorated for Christmas. I adore vintage Christmas ornaments but don't really have a good place to display them. This weekend I made a ornament chandelier via a Pin I found on Pinterest and it looks great hanging in the entryway of our house.

Blog Love: I wish Jessica from How Sweet It Is was my best-y....
