I couldn't be more thankful this year, ya'll. I am one happy and very lucky lady. The Hubs and I hopped in the car and headed North for the Thanksgiving holiday. The Jed and sweet K Lou hosted the whole fam at Casa de McDonough and it was glorious. The Hubs made a turkey-stuffed-turkey; the boys played football; and there was a lot of wine consumed. I'm so grateful to have such an amazing family.

*I'm also extremely flattered and honored that E commented on my sweet old blog, wow!

a new york affair

I mentioned that the Hubs and I recently returned from my cousin's wedding in upstate New York. Finally, some sweet pics from the so-sweet, so-fun event.

K Lou is in her element with all her brothers and sister. (No, that's not De Niro -it's Uncle Mike, father of the groom) {clockwise from the top left: my grandpa, moi, and the Hubs; the newlyweds; the Hubs and I; K Lou and the beautiful bride; my grandparents -cuttin' a rug}

-a few fashion notes:
*Check out K Lou's dress: Zac Posen for Target. She looked so amazing

*Such a beautiful bride -and have you ever seen better teeth? No braces for those babies

*I know everyone says this, but I seriously have the cutest grandparent alive. Check my grandma's steller stilleto spectators, killer. Also, my grandpa climbs mountains -daily. I can literally barely keep up with the man.

I'm so fond of my family, I really think they're all just great. We left every event with sore tummies from laughing so hard. Best wishes to the new Mr & Mrs!

cheers,
