Keeping Up with the Capra's: Holidays in Full Swing and a New Family Member!

Happy Friday!
Thanksgiving is over, and Christmas is on it's way... the holiday season is in full swing!
It's easy to get a little stressed this time of year, but I'm always so bummed when everything is over.

1. Thanksgiving Day!

Jon and I had a fabulous Thanksgiving day. We went to my parent's and hung out with the kiddos while we watched the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, and then we headed to Jon's parent's to eat! We had two whole turkeys to eat between the six of us 😱

2. Home Prints

Found a $0.99 frame at a thrift store for my home print from Sweet Little Ones Shop! I have been looking for the right size for a while. I hung it right over my desk and right across from my couch/coffee table where I do most of my work. This print was such a sweet reminder for the Thanksgiving Season! On the hunt for a Christmas one; might have to get another once from Sweet Little Ones (her Christmas prints are so cute!!)

P.S. all profits from her shop go towards her family's adoptions!

Never give up on thrift stores, y'all. Finally found a ($0.99) frame for my @sweetlittleones print!!! Just in time for Thanksgiving, too.☺️ This spot doesn't look too significant, but it's directly across from my coffee table where I do all my work. So it is a perfect place to hang this beautiful reminder - of how blessed I am, and how thankful + grateful I should be. Check out @sweetlittleones Christmas prints on her Etsy, they're absolutely adorable. And all her profits go towards more adoptions for her beautiful family!!! 💕 #sweetlittleonesshop

3. Ear piercings with the birthday girl

Andie has been counting down the days until she turned 10... because that's when she can get her ears pierced! And to celebrate, Amy and I got more piercings too;)

Look who joined the pierced-ears club!!! (To celebrate, Amy and I added a few more holes to our ears, too 😉) HBD, Andie Mo #sistas #sistime #QTs

4. Our Newest Family Member!

Ok... this is my most exciting news to share with ya'll...

I'M A MOM!

Well... a DOG mom!! ;)

She was a spur-of-the-moment decision, but we just fell in love with her as soon as we met her. She's a two-year-old pit/bull terrier mix, and she's precious. I'm not a dog/animal-lover. But she might make me one;)

Meet Penny!!
