We had an amazing Thanksgiving with Mama and all of my sisters and brother and their families. I think we had over 30 people, some we hadn't seen in many years. I'm grateful for my crazybeautiful family. I had so many hugs, I got hug-drunk. I hope your Thanksgiving was as fun as mine. Today, I'm grateful for the warm sunshine and you.
xo,
