Is it just me or can Thanksgiving be kind of stressful?

I’m being honest here so bear with me.

Sometimes it feels like each year there’s more added pressures, an extra house to stop, more food to cook, etc. Does this happen when you get older or is this just total norm for 2014? Thoughts?

Don’t get me wrong, I loveeeee Thanksgiving but man, oh, man…we went to two houses, I baked three pumpkin rolls/pie ( < recipe coming soon )/Brussels sprouts, I had to get fully ready ( like hair/makeup/the works ), & we brought both of the dogs around…while MOVING.

So ya, I’d say it was kind of stressful.

Our Thanksgiving was beautiful BUT next year I kind of want to sit on my couch & watch the parade, makeup free in my flannel pajamas, ya know?

Anyway moving update: we are moved in but we don’t have a lot of furniture— Michael sold a lot of his bachelor pad-ish furniture & I didn’t have enough furniture to furnish our new place so now we’re looking around for some statement/classic pieces. Do you guys have any secret furniture spots?? At this rate, I can’t wait to share our place when it’s done with you guys in like six million years!!  HA!

Hope you all had a fun Thanksgiving…stay tuned for my skinny pie recipe.
