sunday summation

This week was all about Thanksgiving, right?  The shopping, prep, cooking, traveling … and, of course, enjoying a wonderful feast with friends and family.

We had a wonderful time and I’ll extend a special “thank you” to our hosts.  And I’ll say it again, as a Midwestern transplant I’ve been blessed with a wonderful Chicago family.

The week ahead is shaping up to be a busy one, what with getting ready for all the blog world holiday link parties.  Oh, and Sam’s room (oops, haven’t moved forward on that project).  Well, with the exception of one addition …

GapersBLock poster (550x413) (2)

I found this great poster at the DIY Trunk Show in Chicago last weekend.  The poster frame came from JoAnn’s and was on sale for $5.99.  I thought it would be the perfect addition to a teen boy’s room … and Sam thinks it’s great too.  Phew.

As I round out a solid 4 weeks of blogging, I’m pleased to see that I’ve had close to 9,400 page views.  All I can say is thank you so much for stopping by!
