Celebrating the Holidays with Whole Foods
Growing up, my family would always get together for the holidays and celebrate with big meals. I’d drink apple cider and try and steal some pumpkin pie while getting shooed from the kitchen and told to go help set the table.

Celebrating Three Years (with a giveaway!)
Now that we’re married, a lot of people would say our dating anniversary doesn’t really matter. But our first date was also the first time we ever met. (Online dating for the win!)

A week with my in-laws
I didn’t expect to take a week long hiatus from blogging but I’m very glad I did. Josh’s parents came to visit the Friday before last and left yesterday. It was so great getting to see them.
