Five on Friday

Happy Friday friends.  Welcome to another week of my Friday five.

{ONE}
Can you believe that next week is Thanksgiving??  I really can't.  How many of you are decorating for Christmas this weekend??  I've seen a few people start.  We will head to get our tree next weekend after Thanksgiving is over.  I can't wait!! 

{TWO}
Have you decided what to wear for Thanksgiving yet or are you in need of a cute holiday dress for Christmas?  Annie Griffin Collection is having their warehouse sale and almost everything is on sale up to 80% off. I love their blouses and I got this cute red dress for next month.


{THREE}
My goal is to order our Christmas cards before Thanksgiving this year.  I would love to have them in the mail by the first week of December.  I've always used Shutterfly or Tiny Prints for our cards, but this year I'm pretty certain that I'm going to use Minted.  They have beautiful cards, but I'm really falling for the FREE recipient addresses.  How cute are these??   I love the idea of not having to write out every card :)
Have you picked out your holiday cards yet??


{FOUR}
Jessica gave a free printable this week for Thanksgiving and I love it.  I think they are perfect to print and put in a simple white frame or they look awesome printed on a small canvas.   You can save this image right to your computer.


{FIVE}
I'll be sharing my holiday gift lists next week starting on Monday.  I did them last year and had so much fun with them.  You can see them here.

  2. We will probably decorate some this weekend since both my parents and my in-laws will be coming for Thanksgiving for the first time in our new house, so it'll be fun to have the mix of Christmas and thanksgiving decor up. We will probably wait for the tree until after Thanksgiving tho, too.
    Have a great weekend Annie!

  11. I can't believe it is already Thanksgiving- crazy! I am so excited for Christmas this year, because my son is now 3, so he REALLY gets the Santa thing. I am typically a Tiny Prints girl too, but I am loving the Minted designs. I may be converted.

  12. ooooh christmas cards......the minted free recipient addressing might be the only way i get them done.

  13. Wow that is pretty awesome that they do the addresses for you for free! I am also trying to get on top of Christmas cards this year, I don't want time to get away from me and be sending them out too late!

  17. I have no idea who I'm using for Xmas cards this year but we're having family photos taken in early December so I have some time to decide. I'm thinking of breaking out some of my Christmas decor this weekend but our tree won't be up until next weekend. I'm really nervous about Miller with the tree this year since he's very curious!! Can't wait to see your wishlists!

  18. Please put a mini tree on Brody's car and recreate that pic - I'm dying. Christmas card ordering (after a picture, oops) is on my to-do list so I'll have to check out Minted (always use VistaPrint - they're fantastic!). Happy weekend :)
