This week’s installment of Some Things I’m Loving will be short and sweet. We’ve got a Christmas tree to buy! ;) If you want to join me, feel free to link up below and we can all share with each other what we’ve been loving this week!
Song: Christmas music. All of the Christmas music. I suppose I shall start with THE Christmas song. You all know what I’m talking about. And it ain’t Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire. ;)
Workout: Decorating the house. That counts, right? Moving boxes (i.e. lifting weights), walking around the entire house (cardio) and figuring out the perfect spot for each decoration (fine toning). Yeah, that totally counts.
Food: Leftover turkey on a roll with cranberry sauce, served cold. It is the best thing in the world, I would argue, and I’ve already had two. I’ll be sad when the leftovers are gone.
Black Friday Sales: No, I did not brave the cruel, cruel shopping world and head out to actual stores on Black Friday. Instead, I shopped from the comfort of my own home and it was lovely. There are still so many great deals going on! I did some major damage at the Gap/Old Navy 50% off sale (which unfortch has ended) including my very first BABY purchase!!! :) I’m so excited for it. It’s definitely my favourite “Christmas present” to date, even though Baby won’t be here with us this Christmas. Still counts, right? Another awesome sale that’s going on through Monday is 25% off your entire purchase at Thredup (my favouriteeee store, I know I sing it’s praises consantly, but there is a reason!). I found the prettiest J. Crew wool coat that I’m so excited to add to my wardrobe. Annnnd my Christmas shopping is sooo close to being done! I may actually meet my goal (December 1st) this year, high five!

I am liking all of the things you are doing! I did not go to Black Friday either. Although I did want the 50 inch tv for 299.00! I love Christmas decorating and Christmas songs. Although for some reason I feel more sadder then usual missing my dad. Another Christmas without him. I had Turkey leftovers too! I even made pistachio pudding :)
I definitely understand your sadness, sweet girl. I don’t see it ever getting easy, really. Easier, maybe, but never EASY. <3 And yum, pistachio pudding is so good! I think I may make some, too!

That is my fave Thanksgiving leftover too!
Right?! I could eat them every day! Well.. that’s probably a lie… but at least for a few days ;)

Could you be any more adorable? I think not! I looove that ya’ll got a real Christmas tree. Mine is still el fake-o for now but I still love it! And yes…I am headed home tomorrow and leaving the Thanksgiving leftovers behind….sad day!
Awww YOU are the cutest, if we’re being honest here. And there’s just something about real Christmas trees- I gotta have one! That smell is like no other :) And nooooo don’t leave the leftovers! Such a sad day, indeed.

That picture of you and Zac is super cute! Christmas music is on repeat in my apartment… I bought 5 things from Old Navy for only $35 … definitely a steal! Thanksgiving leftovers are the best. My mom sent my boyfriend & I back with left over turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes! We’ve been enjoying all of it :)
Aw thanks girl! :) Old Navy had SUCH great deals!!! I got like 5 things from there, too! I couldn’t pass it up. YAY leftovers. It’s basically one of the best things about the holidays!

I’ve noticed that this year has got big in the UK which I don’t remember ever happening before. I had numerous emails through with discount codes, which I may or may not have taken advantage of but I didn’t hit the shops. I did hear though that there were arguments in Asda (owned by Walmart) and even a few fights – craziness!! Decorating most definitely counts, it’s hard work! Gutted I didn’t link up with you this week, but we have all even sick and today’s was my first post in a week :( I’ll be back next week though :) xx
I love your workout! I totally back that up as a workout. :)
