the most wonderful time of the year

Now that Thanksgiving is over, we’ve turned our thoughts to Christmas! As Paul says, I live all year for the month of December. I just love Christmas time! We got a tree on Friday. We were going to go to a Christmas tree farm, but we decided we didn’t really want to drive up to North Georgia or farther north, and we just got a tree from a local church.

Today we had the privilege to attend the wedding reception of a friend and former coworker. It was a 40s theme, and guests were encouraged to come dressed in their best vintage garb! Since I just LOVE the 40s, I decided to have fun. A few years ago, I was in a Christmas cantata that took place in the 1940s. I thought I would wear the same outfit, but when I tried on the dress it didn’t fit anymore. Also,…
