    Thursday Things

    Engagement Photo

    1. The amount of hugs I have given and received this week is unreal. So many good squeezes from so many good people.
    2. Seth and I are getting massages today! He’s never had one and I haven’t had one in nearly a year. Truly treating ourselves on this trip.
    3. My cousin Elizabeth was kind enough to take some simple engagement photos for us to use on our save the dates and invites. We dressed up and walked around a lake and I only started bawling once because I just love Seth so much.
    4. Also, if you like goat soap check out her shop! She’s a scent wizard! And very good goat herdress.
    5. I’ll be making a variation of my pecan pie for my aunt tomorrow. Instead of a regular pie plate, I throw the mix in a rectangular baking pan. It produces a thinner, chewier bar that’s so easy to snack on. It’s her favorite thing I bake and the family deserves a treat after letting us crash all week.
    6. Bunny got me to eat chili last night. And it was delicious! Because there weren’t any beans in it.
    7. It was the fifteenth anniversary of Elf earlier this week. Can’t believe I’ve been enjoying the antics of Buddy for over half my life. ‘Tis (about to be) the season!
