It's the Monday after Thanksgiving. and for the first time ever, I'm refreshed, relaxed ~ and ready to take on
THE MONTH OF DECEMBER.
{Remind me to never, ever host this particular holiday EVER again.}
I'm kidding. And, as I mentioned before, there are other factors involved- as to why this "tradition" (the way our family celebrates 'thanksgiving dinner') was/is in need of "tweaking"... but needless to say- it was so very nice to switch it up this year... to not wake up to this.
...to get away- mid-week- the day before Thanksgiving- to celebrate Ryan's birthday... the birthday that usually gets placed on the back-burner due to 'holiday busyness .'
For this, and for him... I am truly thankful.

What a wonderful little getaway. Happy birthday to your husband! Those photos of Catalina look much more fun than the kitchen photos. ;) Good choice this year!
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to visit there! I hope your hubs had a lovely bday!
ReplyDeletethese photos are amazing. they are giving me the travel bug - NOTHING around here looks like that :) at least we are looking forward to a sixty degree weekend for the first of Dec - a little scary but I'll take it!! happy weekend, girl!
ReplyDeleteOh how fun! A much needed getaway- happy late bday to your sweet hubby!
