Be thankful!

Good morning lovelies! Today is a long weekend for us Canadian folk, due to one of our favorite holidays...Thanksgiving! We wanted to take a break from our turkey dinners, and let you know what we're thankful for. 

We know it may sound cheesy, but we must be some of the luckiest girls around, and we have a lot to be grateful for. We have the most loving and supportive husbands, as well as the most amazing family and friends! If that's not enough we just signed the lease to our new store for three years! We are so thankful that everything fell into place and couldn't be more excited to start this next chapter of our lives! We still have to pinch ourselves at this amazing opportunity we've been given, to live out our dream! We have our health, we get the opportunity to travel and we have beautiful homes to come back to, and that's just the start of it! It's easy to forget how lucky we truly are and we have to remember to not take it for granted. 

And last but definitely not least, we are thankful for you guys! We honestly wouldn't be here if it weren't for the encouragement you have given us over the past 10 months.  Your encouraging emails, sweet comments, and the fact that you keep coming back for more, it makes us continue to do what we do! We have built some incredible new friendships over the past year thanks to our corner in blog-land, so thank you! We definitely don't say it enough! We are rather fond of all of you!

Now go out there and be thankful! We're pretty sure that even if you're having the worst possible day, you can still find something to be thankful for.

Also, if you're feeling crafty like we have been lately, try out this little number:
All you will need:
-A thrift store painting
-Paintbrushes, the size of your choice, the smaller the better
-Paint, we used this acrylic paint from the dollar store
-Pencil

All you do is write out a message (in pencil) on your painting, then paint over it and let it dry! Easy Peasy!
Happy thanksgiving to all of our fellow Canadians! And remember...
