Paul worked Thursday so our family celebrated Thanksgiving this year on Friday. We baked bread (much to Ellerie's joy), read books, watched some football, made more than enough food, grilled a turkey for the first time, sang the itsy-bitsy spider (on repeat, while wearing all of mama's bangles), enjoyed crazy warm weather and finished with a fire.

I'm learning the holidays mark the passing of time more than anything else. It's crazy to think Ellerie looked like this last year. I cannot imagine her next year. (Though, no doubt I'll be wearing chambray again). A few of these are iPhone photos, but most were snapped by my brother on this big camera. Thanks, Rob!

Friendly reminder that you can save 25% on everything at elisejoy.com (make29 products, ecourses & digital stamps) through Tuesday with code THANKSMUCH.

My name is Elise Blaha Cripe. I live in San Diego, California with my husband and our two young daughters.

I make stuff like it's my job.

In 2015 I launched GET TO WORK BOOK®, a daily planner + goal-setting journal. In October 2019, my book about getting stuff done, Big Dreams, Daily Joys hit bookstores everywhere. For almost ten years, this blog was where I shared (daily!) general life musings, insight into being a small business owner and the occasional craft project. In 2021, I am sharing again as we prepare to move back home to Northern California and renovate our dream cottage. I have closed comments, but feel free to email me at elise[@]gettoworkbook.com if you have any questions about a post you see here.

If you're new here, I invite you to browse the archives, read my small business story or start with some of my favorite things to write about, DIY home decor & goal-setting. You can also listen to my motivational speech about the power of making bold statements.

Still looking for more content? Listen to my creative podcast, take one of my eCourses or subscribe to my newsletter.

Thank you so much for dropping by.
