Well, not exactly. But I decorated the blog for the holidays! Today is the first COLD day of the season… I think we have a high temperature of 45 today! Shiver me timbers!! With Thanksgiving next week and the radio stations already playing Christmas music (yes, I have been listening to it!!) it has gotten me in the mood to decorate. HOWEVER. I have a rule. I cannot start decorating for Christmas until the day after Thanksgiving. Some of you who are over achievers and already have lights on the outside of your house may disagree with me, but I think we need to give Turkey Day it’s month to shine!
Since I do not break rules (very often!) I decided that I could decorate the blog! Last week my sister sat down with me and gave me a Photoshop 101 training session. Who knew the possibilities! I sat there in complete dismay when she showed me how people “design” things. I have now discovered brushes and patterns, so I am on to most of your tricks now!
I ended up designing my own Christmas card - which I can’t show you because then it won’t be much of a surprise when they show up in your mailbox next month! But I have also designed a few of our “Girl’s Night Out” invites!
So now I am ready to start getting festive! It’s the Friday before Thanksgiving! Time to start prepping the food and thinking about the holidays! Planning events and plotting a Black Friday bargain shopping escape route! Enjoying the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and a huge meal with the fam! (Pretty sure with relatives coming into town we won’t have our new tradition of ‘family beer pong’ this year…) And now the blog is all dressed up I am ready to share all of my holiday souvenirs with you! 
Have a happy weekend friends!
