It’s November, and I’m excited! Why am I excited? I’m so glad you asked. Later this month is my most favorite of all holidays: Thanksgiving! I love Thanksgiving, and everything it represents. I’m a HUGE advocate of being thankful for what I have. I spend a moment each night recounting what I have to be thankful for that day, but spending an entire Holiday being thankful? Glorious.
The only problem is, Thanksgiving can be expensive. Families get together, huge meals are prepared and eaten and the wallet gets a workout. The time to start setting some funds aside is NOW. I’m siphoning off a little bit of our weekly discretionary funds this moth so when Thanksgiving arrives in three weeks I’m READY! Are you ready for Thanksgiving??
Fist pump for Thanksgiving, and for the bests posts in the blogosphere this week!

We will be hosting Thanksgiving this year, so we need to get our plan together. Thanks for the reminder and including my post. Have a great weekend!
Good luck, Brian…T-day can be quite a production! Thanks for your comment!
I think Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday as well. I love the focus on being thankful, and the good food & football aren’t too shabby either. 😉 Thanks much for the mention Travis, I appreciate it!
The football is definitely a PLUS!
Thanksgiving definitely can get expensive, especially if your family starts shopping in the evening…it’s tough to not get caught up in all the deals, sales, and promotions of Black Friday (both in store and online).
Listen here, DC…don’t come on this website talking about shopping on Black Friday. LOL. I’ll be sleeping in!
I hope you had a great weekend!!!
Always do….hope the same for you!
