Thanksgiving this year ROCKED! Josh and I headed down to NJ early and spent the night with my brother Ronny and his girlfriend Kelli. They recently got this amazing old english bulldog named Bentley. Here he is with his favorite holiday chew toy.

Then we headed to my parents house for Thanksgiving dinner and a little early birthday party (My real Bday is on December 7th). My mom and dad are the sweetest, dearest parents in the world. They had these balloons and streamers - it was so frickin’ cute it brought a tear to my eye.

Best of all was having my mom’s famous birthday cake. She makes this incredible buttercream frosting that is to die for. She got the top secret recipe from my great uncle Vinny who owns an old school Italian Bakery called Vaccaro’s in North Jersey.
