Hey there everyone!

Sorry I’ve been away for a bit— I’ve been traveling pretty much constantly for most of November and I’ll be in and out of Nashville for a lot of December, but you can check us out on Instagram to see some of our adventures over the next few weeks... Plus we have some great posts coming up for you! Anyway, back to our regularly scheduled blog post…  

Before we jump in, I’d like to provide a little background info on my past few Thanksgivings (I know— thrilling stuff): My brother-in-law’s family lives in Austin. Since Austin is a bit closer to Nashville than California, our little three-person Nashville family has been making the twelve to sixteen-hour drive to Austin for the past four years to celebrate Thanksgiving. Austin is a great city, full of great food, quirky stores...and also John’s family has a hot tub and a puppy so it’s totally great.
