A very warm day outdoors and a very small kitchen indoors on Thanksgiving Day meant what I wore would need to be something cool! AND comfortable. For the “cool” part, I selected a short-sleeved animal print top and a fun faux leather skirt.
For the “comfortable” part, I dismissed the idea of wearing ankle booties with heals for my good ole black cowgirl boots. Oh, how I’ve missed them!
My daughter in law, Shandi, pinned my hair back and then became my photographer. We managed to briefly slip away from the cooking of the feast to do this shoot! We had fun with this one. Shandi is extremely creative!
It was simply a perfect day for an outdoor photoshoot and Thanksgiving feast. The winter grass all nice and green. Poppies and other flowers fully in bloom in my flower beds. Birds chirping and hummingbirds buzzing around and visiting my patio flowers.
My top and earrings are from Nordstrom Rack (recently); the skirt is from Saks Off Fifth (last year). Boots are from Cavenders (two years old). And that, my friends, is what I wore on Thanksgiving Day!
Now, on to the blog hop I am co-hosting with the gals from Wine’d Down Wednesday! “What is a blog hop?” you may be asking. Here’s the answer: If you are a blogger, this is an opportunity for you to share up to three of your crafty, delicious or heartfelt posts for the readers of Tabler Party of Two and the other four hostess’ blogs. If you are not a blogger, then look over the blog hop entries to get inspiring and delicious ideas. Blog hops are fun for everyone! Don’t forgot to bless the gals that post on the blog hop by visiting their sites and leaving comments on the ones you love most!
Welcome to the 64th week of Wine’d Down Wednesday! We hope you had an amazing Thanksgiving and we are all so happy to be back to regular schedules, right?!
Thank you SO MUCH to everyone that has been linking with us so far, we are beyond thrilled to have you coming back week after week and just love reading all of your posts! We were all so excited and overjoyed that so many of you want to come and share your awesomeness with us. Keep on sharing and spreading the Wine’d Down love 🙂
Are you interested in joining our fun? Why not co-host with us! We are looking for co-hosts to help spread our wine’d down love! Join us, it’s free! 🙂 If you are interested, email Michelle at Michelle@ourthreepeas.com.
Without further a-do- on to the party!
We are so excited you have joined us for a girl’s night out, blog style! So…why Wine’d Down Wednesday? Well, what’s the best kind of party? The kind where wine is served of course! Since we can’t meet our fellow blog friends in person we thought we’d throw a party every week. So grab your wine, link up a recent post, and mingle. Your post doesn’t need to include wine, linking up while drinking wine is completely acceptable and encouraged! We want any of your funniest, heartfelt, absurd, crafty, or delicious posts. As an added bonus, we will also be rotating a different social media outlet each week so you’ll get minglers at all your hangouts.
Our Wine’d Down Wednesday Pinterest board is brimming with all of your amazing posts. Each week we look at all the link ups and each choose the one we like the best! It’s always difficult to each choose just one, but we did and here are our 4 top Wine’d Down favorites for this week:
1. Cinnamon Christmas Ornaments // Cookin’ and Craftin’
2. DIY Personalized Notebooks // Hello Little Home
3. Mason Jar Vases // Typically Simple
4. Peppermint Mocha Donuts // The Simple Sweet Life
Congrats to all that were chosen! We have pinned these in our Wine’d Down Wednesday Pinterest Board.
