Thanksgiving Meal Plan

Hey yall happy Monday! I am excited to start another week, especially the week of thanksgiving! I have never been much of a cook but this year moving in with my fiancé, I've been cooking a lot more and have actually started to enjoy it. Especially when I try making something I never have and it comes out tasting amazing. So I thought what a better way to put my "cooking skills" to the test and cook for thanksgiving. Today I am sharing with you my meal plan I have laid out for Thursday. I hope this will give you a little inspiration on what to cook if you're having a hard time trying to figure it out. As far as how it will taste, well I will get back to you after thankgiving. lol CHEERS to cooking all day and stuffing your face with no regrets!!

They're so many things I am thankful for this year and ill start with today. I am thankful for each and everyday that I wake up, the gift of life is what I am most thankful for. God has blessed me tremendously this year and I am forever grateful for his love. I started this thing a couple months ago, each day I wake up and before I start my day I will name off five different things I am thankful for. Whether it be the bed you lay in, the person next to you, being able to see and hear or just simply the breath of life. It has helped me start my day with such a grateful heart and I believe that's how it should be. As Oprah Winfrey would say "Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have you will never, ever have enough".

XOXO-
Katherine

An Open Letter To My Little Brother On His Graduation Day

Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you. Declares the Lord. “Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future” To My Bubba: Tomorrow’s the Big Day! The day you’ve been waiting for, twelve years down the road. I bet you’re a little nervous right about now, tomorrow you’ll be walking the stage with your fellow classmates. This week has been special, getting to celebrate with all your close friends your High School Graduation, only happens once. As you sit there tomorrow waiting for your name to be called, remember all the time you had with everyone. Being from a small town we all have known each other since pre-school just about. Remember all the good and bad times, remember who has been there with you through it all, but more importantly remember how you got here. Hard work, Dedication and Determination. CONGRATULATIONS: High School is not always the easiest; well after being a college student I might beg to differ. L...

Grateful for Twenty-Three

Good Morning Loves! Today's my BIRTHDAY, I am turning 23 years old the oldest I've ever been! Seem like now-a-days the years just keep going by faster, but I am thankful to have lived another one. This morning I am celebrating with my family and three banana pancakes, from the best granny. To continue the celebration Calvin and I are headed to San Antonio this weekend. I am so excited to have a fulfilled weekend with him doing some of my favorite things. Thursday we plan on going out on the town for a little dancing, Friday we are floating the river, and Saturday calls for a relaxing spa day. This shoot has to be one of my favorites, we took these pictures at a local Ice Cream Shop Holly Hops. What's a better way to celebrate your birthday than with some cake batter ice cream?! SOO DELICIOUS! Todays outfit is so fun and bright. Who else loves wearing yellow in the summer? Brings out your tan, even if you don't have one. LOL Hoping to add some color to me t...
