Happy Monday! Welcome to November and welcome to shorter days… can you feel the enthusiasm in my voice??? I don’t necessarily love that it gets dark at 4:30 in the afternoon now, but I do love that the holidays are right around the corner! I have some great sneak peeks to share from the final wedding of 2016 and a local engagement session, but first a few thoughts from the week, as always:

– Today is that start of a 10 day cleanse for me. And I’m announcing this because I think by making it public it’ll help to hold me accountable. Here’s the deal: no gluten. no dairy. no alcohol. no refined sugar. no processed foods. no caffeine. lots of water. lots of exercise. lots of sleep. Here we gooooo! You can do anything for 10 days, right?!

– Side note on the cleanse: I went grocery shopping yesterday and was SHOCKED by all the things that have sugar in them. And given, I have already seen the documentary Fed Up, so I shouldn’t have been that surprised, but it truly is mind-blowing (even the quinoa blend I usually buy had sugar in it!)

– This month on Instagram I’m participating in a 30 Days of Thankfulness challenge put on my Shoot & Share using the hashtag #30DOT. It serves as my daily reminder for all the things I have to be thankful for and would encourage everyone to participate or at least be conscious of taking time in your own way to be grateful of all of all the great things life has to offer.
