It's finally feeling like Christmas

Life has been interesting around here lately with each of us getting sick as one got well!  We are finally starting to all feel better, so this weekend was time to decorate for Christmas. 

 
I wish I could say I'm excited for the holidays.  This year, with the budget tightened up, I have to remind myself it is not about what you can buy but how we spend our time together!  I am hoping to create a day of thankfulness and good food....now all I have to do is figure out the menu :)
