happy thanksgiving! i hope your holiday weekend is already off to a fabulous (and delicious) start!

in the midst of the official kick-off of the holiday season, i wanted to pause and reflect on everything i’m grateful for this year. to say it has been a year full of love, change, and blessings would be an understatement. so much has happened and i couldn’t be more thankful for God’s providence.

i am thankful for God’s grace, my amazing family and soon-to-be family in-law, friendships that transcend distance, life stage, and time, a job that continues to challenge me even nine years later, a studio barre community that fuels my passion for sisterhood and fitness, my health, this plot of internet real estate that has brought so many wonderful humans and opportunities into my life, and last but not least, 

i am thankful for this man -my steadfast partner-in-crime, my travel buddy, personal furniture maker, in-house comedian, blog photographer, and number one fan. my entire heart and future husband. i am thankful for the life we are building in these moments and for the life that has yet to come. 

so wherever you are today, just know i’m sending a big thanksgiving hug your way (that rhymes!). i hope that in the midst of the football watching and pumpkin pie consuming you pause to reflect on the blessings in your life -both big and small.

xoxo,
