We always spend Thanksgiving with my husband’s family, and my mom joins us with my grandmother’s corn casserole (one of my favorites!).

Every year on Black Friday, my mom and I head to Barnes & Noble for a low key day of shopping and quality girl time. The past few years Emma has been able to tag along and it’s become one of our favorite traditions!
