Good day-before-Christmas Eve! Or Christmas Eve Eve, I suppose? Thank you for your sweet comments on Monday's decor post...

Hi y'all! Woo hoo and TGIF! The hubs and I are headed to the lake to celebrate his birthday with friends this weekend and not a moment too soon. While my to-do list still looms (wrapping, shipping, last minute shopping), God knew he and I needed time in a serene place this weekend. Lots of non-holiday stress has been creeping in and I think a little time in front of a roaring fire with good friends and good food is just what the doctor … [Read more...]
