Late Thankful Thursday & Fab Friday

I'm a little late on this, but here are my 5 things I am thankful for this week, followed by my top 3 obsessions this past week!

Thankful Thursday

1. God. Every week He will be #1. He is my #1 and always will be. This week, he's helped me alot with wedding planning. I've been quite stressed about some things, and he's shown me his way, and I've loved every minute of it. I am so blessed.

2. Holidays. They mean FAMILY to me, oh and food too :). I look forward to Thanksgiving, even though I'm not 100% sure what exactly us Lees To Be will be doing! Brian will be home in less than a week, exactly a week before Thanksgiving!

3. Fall Weather. We just got a cool front an hour ago, and it's starting to feel like fall again. This past week was in the 80's and HUMID like crazy, so I'm excited the cooler air is here again. I love snuggling in bed with a big blanket before falling asleep. I can't wait until its freezing and my parents start the fire in their fireplace! It gets so cozy & warm!

4. My parents. They've been so, well, awesome! They love when I come and stay with them for a while. My mom, especially. We get to do alot of girl stuff, and I think my mom enjoys the company. Both her and I are alone throughout most of our days, so when we get together, we enjoy time with one another. They never complain that I stay with them too long. In fact I thought that I would be driving home today, but I changed my mind this morning and decided that Sunday or Monday would be better because of weather. I love every minute of being at my parents. I never want to leave. *sigh* I can't wait to move back to the Hill Country *sigh*

5. Brian. Yet again, he will probably always be on my list. How can I not put my future husband on my 5 things I'm most thankful for every week? He's such a good sport, and loves that I can visit my parents as much as I do. I think it gives him more peace to know that I am with them and under their protection. I'm sure, once he gets home, he will wish that I was at home cleaning our house! HAHA ;) But he understands how I need some time away from home too!

I'm starting to think that my 5 things I am thankful for each week posts are becoming repetitive! Oh well, only two more weeks left until Thanksgiving! It's gone by so fast! It's crazy!

Here are my Fab Friday, top 3 obsessions for the week:

1. Chocolate. My chocolate intake for the week started on Sunday, we tried wedding cakes at the Wedding Fair in Austin, of course there was chocolate cake. We then went on to trying MORE wedding cake samples on Tuesday and Wednesday. Yesterday, mom, my brother and I went to Little Deli in Austin and I ordered a chocolate mousse cake for dessert! (ouch, my WW points this week are way off) Today, I ate a carmello bar AND coconut M&Ms! Not quite sure whats going on, but I know that doing all this chocolate talk is making me want...CHOCOLATE!!! NOT GOOD! *sigh*



2. Wedding. Wedding stuff is inevitable to think about because I am planning my wedding, but this week has been blown out of proportion on wedding planning. I have done so much, I'm actually ready to NOT think about the little details of the wedding like what wedding cake I want, to how I want the seating arranged for the Wedding party at the reception! There is so much information to consume and think about, its very easy to get overwhelmed! Cake tastings, floral arrangements, reception fabrics, my gown, and DIY crafts have consumed my past 7 days! But I am seriously obsessed.

3. Food. Homecooked meals, and eatting out! I got my mom's chili, and tortilla soup recipes! I'll be making them once I get home next week! Brian will be VERY happy to have a home-cooked meal! If you didn't see a previous post about my legendary Sopapilla Cheesecake Recipe, check it out, you won't regret it. Well maybe if you are worried about calories and how sweet it is!

Have a blessed weekend!

For Now & God Bless, *Amber*
