It’s November 20th and today it finally felt like fall in the desert. We woke up to grey skies, a chilly breeze and a day fit for sweater weather! Scott and I decided to take our morning slow after a busy, but super fun weekend! On Friday, we had a pop-up shop along with a few other local small business owners in downtown Mesa. Being there was like a big reunion with so many of our friends, and folks that I haven’t seen my college and high school days! On Saturday, we attended the sweetest backyard baby shower for two amazing friends who are welcoming a baby girl in February. I posted a photo of the glowy set-up on Instagram, and now I’m ready to have everyone over to our house to re-create this cozy, autumn get-together!

After a slow morning, complete with breakfast at home, hot coffee and watching CBS Sunday Morning together, we high-tailed it to the movies to see Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them! I’ve been so excited to see this movie, and while I don’t want to spoil it for anyone — I’ll just say that it was everything I had hoped for and more! As a longtime Harry Potter fan, it felt so good to see something so connected to the story and idea of HP back on the big screen. So if you’re on the fence about going to see it — do it! Promise you won’t be disappointed! 

In other news, how is Thanksgiving next week? November seemed to go by in the blink of an eye, and now Christmas will be here before we know it. Scott and I are both looking forward to a short work week, celebrating with our families and then selling at Phoenix Flea on Small Business Saturday! If you’re local or going to be in town for the holiday, Scott and I would love for you to stop by our booth for Citizen Home Decor and say hi! We have tons of cute new ornaments this year, and of course — the old favorites too. We’re so grateful and thankful to continue to see our little business grow, and truly couldn’t do this without all of your love and support. Thank you, thank you!

Here’s to the start of a very thankful and fun-filled week, friends! What do you have planned for the holiday? Going home or staying in with family and friends? What’s your favorite Thanksgiving dish? I could eat a whole pan of green bean casserole — totally not kidding either, haha!
