The last of our guests have already left, and it’s still just Friday. The Christmas trees are out, the holiday songs are playing on the radio… and yes, those crazy neighbors down the street have saturated their home and yard in multicolor bulbs.

It’s November and we’re hosting Thanksgiving. As Hedman tradition goes, we’ve put off the home improvements for a year and now we’re on a home-improvement binge before the big day!
What that looks like this year:

Home from a gorgeous and fun weekend with friends! We drove up to Portland, ME with the Pashbys and spent the weekend with the Ennis-Matteis!
