Friendsgiving

Bringing Back one of my favorite posts today!

I know to most of you Friendsgiving has a totally different meaning, but my favorite meaning of the word stems from a tradition my sister and I started several years ago:

So here is your guide to hosting your own Friendsgiving! 


1. Order a ton of food! I suggest Pizza or Chinese


2. Gather Seasons 1 and 3-10 of Friends! (I KNOW! No season 2 episode!) 


3. Enjoy!


Season 1: TOW Underdog Gets away! 
 “I’m very Thankful that all your Thanksgivings sucked”- Chandler 

Season 3: TOW The Football
  “I went really long” -Rachel 

Season 4: (And my personal fave): TOW Chandler in a Box
  “Fine but, Married a lesbian, left a guy at the alter, fell in love with a gay ice dancer, threw a girl’s wooden leg on the fire, live in a box!” – Monica

Season 5: TOW All the Thanksgiving Flashbacks
   ” Sir limps a lot, I came up with that!” -Ross

Season 6: TOW Ross got High
   “What’s not to like? Custard, good! Jam, Good! Meat, Gooood!” -Joey

Season 7: TOW Chandler Doesn’t like Dogs
   “Well I started naming states, but then I got tired of it so I started naming different types of celery. So far I’ve only got one, regular celery” – Phoebe 

Season 8: TOW the Rumor
  “Dear Rachel, you’re a very nice person. Sorry about your teeny weeny!”- Rachel

Season 9: TOW Rachel’s Other Sister
  ” Who has to die for me to get her” – Joey

Season 10: TOW The Late Thanksgiving
  “The Floating heads do make a good point” -Chandler

Do you have any Thanksgiving traditions?

The precious Hanna Anderson coat is perfect for a Texas winter. We love this sweet sweater and it comes in the prettiest white that matches all of our holiday outfits! Hallie wears the tights under all of her long sleeved dresses, and we love them! If you are looking to purchase from June and January for the first time, click here for 15% off your first purchase!

5 years

Today marks 5 years of marriage for Christopher and I, and February will be 13 years together. It is true what they say, time flies when you are having fun! Today as I look back on our time together I am thankful for this man.  Christopher is the best Dad to Hallie and an Amazing husband to me. He gives us 110% all the time and we are so blessed to have him loving and protecting our family.  I love you more everyday honey, and can’t wait to see what the future holds for us.
