I love the idea of a “friendsgiving”
beautiful photos…have a happy thanksgiving!
LOVE this! There’s something so nice about enjoying this time of year (and delish food!) with a big group of friends. I just hosted my own Friendsgiving Saturday and blogged about my tabletop here: http://bit.ly/TcmOr4
LOVE the idea of “take a drink … leave your phone.” You can’t make new friends if you’re on the phone with your old ones.
We’re doing this too! A few of us wound up in town with families unable to fly in, so we’re gathering for our own Thanksgiving. And thanks so much for the playlists–they’re excellent!
Gorgeous photos & love a “friendsgiving!”
Love this woodsy style dinner with friends!
Love love love love love! Talented designer, talented photographers, talented guests!
