Well, the beautiful Thanksgiving season has already given way to the wonder of Christmastime, but I would be remiss if I didn’t post about last week’s celebrations! We truly enjoyed the month of November – wearing jackets for the first time this year, raking LOTS of leaves, reflecting on all the blessings God has given us, and spending time with family.
