That time again!

It is that time of year once again. The house is filled with the sounds of power tools whirring and the sewing machine humming. Smells fill the house as the hot glue gun heats up, "stuff" bubbles on the stove, and the paint cans spray. Ok so to be perfectly 100 percent honest, some of the activity is on the patio, but the smells and sounds still make their way into the kitchen!

About 2 years ago, our oldest daughter sent out emails requesting our family go to a Buy Nothing Christmas. She was thinking about what she wanted to instill into our granddaughter about Christmas and what it is really all about. In theory, I applauded her sentiments. In reality, I groaned because I feel my creativity is just not up to snuff with the rest of the family's. Since that time though, it has been my great joy to participate.

So here we are at it again!

May this season be one of thanks, reflection, praise, and joy for you and your family!
