Thanksgiving 2016

So the great part about Thanksgiving this year was not having to leave in the middle of it to go to work!!! The mall the Yankee Store is located in didn't open due to it being a smaller mall until 5am on Friday, yes i was opening but wow it was nice being with family till later then 3 pm!

Jill took pictures this year, here is one starting the dinner!

Trip to Lowell

Every year the town of Lowell sponsors a "Christmas in Lowell" arts and fair throughout the down. It takes place the weekend before thanksgiving. This year as many before David and i went for Saturday. He stays with Tim and the kids while Missy and I and often Lisa, Kathy, and this year Amy joined us. It was so fun, and it snowed the whole day which just gets you more in the mood for Christmas.  I thought i had taken more pictures then i did but apparently in my excitement this is all i have.!

First Snow

We got our first snow this past Sunday! 12/11/2016 about 4-6 inches! its going to be a white Christmas!

New Job!

So incase any of you haven't heard, i am officially back as a Store Manager.
I left Yankee Candle, Nov 26th and Started with Crabtree & Evelyn on Nov 27th. I spend a week in Annapolis Maryland training and then came home to take over the store at Partridge Creek shopping center.  I still love Yankee nothing bad to say, just took an opportunity that came my way.

Free free to check them out at Crabtree&Evelyn.com there very boutique and small company but i am really enjoying it, and there product is great!

This is my store.

Shadow

So most of you know my cat Shadow, i thought i would share this photo, well because i laughed so hard. David has one rule, no cats on the pillows. Sounds simple right, normally we tilt the pillows up on their side and against the wall. However, well we changed the quilt and bedding last week and when i went back upstairs here was shadow.  Technically she is on the quilt that's on the pillows. Just made me laugh, but she did get down when she saw him come in the room!

Peter Pan

One of the benefits of David working for the schools is free tickets to the shows.! This fall they did Peter Pan, they did a great job. David has pictures of the set and all.

Last Bike Ride of the Year

So October just seemed to fly buy. One of the highlights was having a last ride before the snow came so here is our last ride. Tuesday Nov 1st. 3.23 miles! So pretty with all the leaves and trees orange. Even next time i will have to take some pictures of them too!
