Here, in South Carolina, the rain has stopped, the sun is out, and the temperature has DROPPED! Baby, it's COLD outside! December is here ... hope is high. Thanksgiving was a blessing this year, spent with friends as the "unclaimed" couple ... a first for us; however, it was one of the best holidays in the recent past. In fact, I think I am still full with turkey and dressing, smothered in giblet gravy! YUMMY!
Now our thoughts will turn to decorating, baking, planning, and blogging for the holidays. Have you started putting up your home decorations? Have you addressed and mailed your Christmas cards? How about the menu? Is your guest list finished? Invitations addressed? Mailed? Have you purchased your Christmas tree? What kind? Or have you moved from natural to silk? This sounds good in theory, saves money in the long run, but our children still say, "The real thing is better!" They love the smell that fills the house. This is a cheat sheet for you. I hope it helps you get organized and on your way to a wonderful holiday celebrating the true meaning of Christmas - the birth of baby Jesus!
Have a blessed day. Let me know in comments about your plans for Christmas, OK?
