    Unfortunately we don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Denmark, but maybe next year I'll just jump right into it and make my own Thanksgiving tradition over here :) the Thanksgiving food sounds delicious, and the idea of a holiday dedicated to things/people to be thankful for seems great to me:)
    So Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. I'm sure you will enjoy it to the fullest, but enjoy the food a little xtra this year for us non-celebrating people and I'll be sure to spend some time acknowledging everything in my life to be thankful for!

  11. Thank you for the discount codes!

    That wedding dress is unbelievably beautiful. I think it might require some spanx--silk satin is never very forgiving!

    I just love that little boys room! It is way nicer than my new apartment and I might steal a couple decorating ideas...like the tree branch.

  39. I just read that article about Before Sunrise/Sunset and got so nostalgic that I had to watch Before Sunrise on Youtube in 12 minute increments :)

    Also - not sure if you have time to read all these comments, but I've been meaning to say that I would LOVE if you posted (perhaps on a Motherhood Monday?) about transitioning your child's room from a "baby room" to a toddler/kid room. My daughter is 2 and we're thinking about moving her into a big girl bed, but I'm torn with which "look" to go for in her upgraded room. A design post with kids' room pics would be so fun!

  40. That eyeliner video rocked my face. Yay.

  47. I love that you mentioned "loose pants." I was thinking my matchstick jeans were feeling a bit too snug on Thanksgiving day-- I should have stuck with loungewear :)

    I always enjoy your links, Joanna! I also want to add that as a woman without children I've been surprised to find that I really enjoy your posts about motherhood (motherhood blogs don't usually appeal to me). You do such a great job of writing in a way that seems balanced, sincere, vulnerable and sweet. Great blog (and congratulations to Toby on his first steps - adorable videos)! Stephanie

  59. We don't celebrate Thanksgiving here in Oz but I sure wish we did. I had my sister, her husband and bub here from NYC during Thanksgiving and not only did we not have a turkey, Sydney turned on the most appalling weather and for their entire stay they didn't see the sun once. I wasn't to blame but I almost felt embarrassed!
