What a week! Last Sunday I arrived back in Los Angeles from a wedding in Mexico and threw myself into a whirlwind two days of work before heading straight for the airport from work on Tuesday afternoon. I arrived in Phoenix on Tuesday night just in time to celebrate my brother’s 22nd birthday! Phoenix has been so fun this week going out with high school friends on Wednesday and Friday nights and celebrating Thanksgiving with my family on Thursday. It was also the first Thanksgiving that Edwin and I have spent together (we’ve always done separate Thanksgivings with our families in the past) and the first Thanksgiving for my family in our new house. I worked hard on my first gift guide of the season and my Black Friday weekend sales guide so I hope you enjoyed them! Oh, and the Buffs won yesterday!! Here we come Pac-12 Championship! Enjoy your last day of Thanksgiving week loves!
