It's Friday. It's AskFarnoosh. Friday. Welcome back to So Money. Everybody. I am Farnoosh. It is December 2, 2022.

I hope everybody had a really good Thanksgiving and enjoying the start to the last month of 2022. I am ready for the new year.

You know, I have some fun things ahead. Obviously the holidays. We're going to go on a trip to San Diego with my family.

And I have a story about that, how I saved Mochotanero recently on that trip. But first, I want to touch base on our Thanksgiving.

So it was a big deal at our house. My husband and I hosted our family, including my parents, his mom and stepfather, and my brother and his fiance were here.

10 people around the dinner table. It was a lot of fun. Very grateful that we could all be together.

You know, I think I went to William Sonoma three times in a week before the dinner just to make sure I had everything I needed.

And I wouldn't look like too much of an amateur hosting all these people for a very important dinner. And I'm glad to say it went off successfully.

During the holiday, I got some exciting news. So I think I've mentioned that my brother is engaged to an amazing woman named Hannah.

And I'm really thrilled for them. They're going to be getting married next fall in San Diego. And we got to talking about their plans for their bridal party.

You know, groomsmen, bridesmaids, what are you guys going to do?

And Todd, my brother mentioned that he's got a big group of guys. He's got a lot of friends from high school and college that he wants to include.

And he wants to include my husband as one of his groomsmen, which we thought was really special. Thanks Todd.

And then, you know, things got quiet. I was secretly wondering if maybe Hannah was going to ask me to be in her bridal party.
