It's Beginning to feel...
A lot like Christmas! Indeed it is!
It's over a month a way, but now that fall is just about over, the trees are nearly bare and it's that dark and dreary time of year, I'm beginning to look forward to Christmas! Decorating, shopping and cooking! What better way to make the dreariness seem brighter! I am even planning ANOTHER shopping trip this weekend and then maybe another after that!
I can't wait for December 1 so I can start decorating too. I won't decorate before then, just because it's not the month of the actual holiday.
Last weekend I visited Dodie and her family. She is all finished with her chemo treatments and soon after Thanksgiving she will have her surgery and then 8 weeks of radiation. Her outlook is very optimistic and I continue to pray for her all the time. It's amazing what resilience we can muster when faced with the unimaginable.
Halloween has also come and gone and Hannah surprised us by saying she didn't enjoy trick or treating all that much. You see, her big sister didn't go this year as she is getting too old for that. She also decided not to take her little sister along this year and I think that is why Hannah didn't enjoy it as much. Being with Mom and Dad wasn't as fun I guess. But that is fine. She doesn't need all that candy anyhow and the school festivities were a lot more fun!
