As Thanksgiving week approaches, the anticipation of gathering your loved ones around the table and showing gratitude is one of my favorite things!

I find myself reflecting on the past year with immense gratitude for each and every one of you. Whether through a small gesture or a monumental one, you’ve played a crucial role in helping me pursue my passion for photography and marketing. I feel exceptionally fortunate and truly thankful for this opportunity. While every day may not be flawless, I am continually grateful for the chance to pursue my dreams, and I have you to thank for that.

Every like, comment, referral, email, and session serves as a heartfelt reminder of how blessed I am to be part of such an incredible community. Working with you, your friends, and your families brings me immense joy, but what truly resonates with me is the deeper connection we forge beyond the realm of photography.

In this incredible journey, you’ve also been a part of a marketing adventure that I’ve embarked upon. Together, we’ve explored new horizons and ventured into uncharted territories. You’ve followed along, encouraged, and cheered me on as I’ve taken steps towards a dream I’ve held close to my heart for years—a women’s entrepreneur community. Along the way, I’ve had the privilege of meeting so many remarkable women and collaborating with countless extraordinary businesses. Your support has been instrumental in turning this dream into a reality, and for that, I am endlessly thankful.

Thanksgiving holds a special place in my heart, though perhaps not for the reasons you might think. It’s not the food that draws me in, but rather the chance to gather with some of the most cherished people in my life. I relish in the act of hosting, decorating the tables, and embracing the delightful chaos of preparing and cooking alongside Aldo. Sharing the day with my loved ones is what truly warms my heart.

One of the aspects of Thanksgiving that brings me immense joy is setting the table. Over the years, our guest list has steadily grown, affording me the opportunity to play with the exquisite Borrowed BLU tableware. It’s like a mini creative party, artfully mixing and matching to design the perfect table setting. I love the process, sprinkling in decor and flowers from Trader Joe’s. Above is a glimpse into some of our past holiday table settings.

Speaking of tablescapes and gathering with loved ones, I’m excited to share a new addition to our Thanksgiving gathering this year: a delightful Spiced Fig Cocktail, joining our beloved Pumpkin Pie Martini and Maple Spiced Pecan Pie.

I have such immense gratitude for each of you!!!
