Happy Halloween Duck Dynasty Style

We kept hearing how good Duck Dynasty was and I have to say it really is that good, we are hooked!  We are catching up on past seasons. We decided to do family costumes and dress up as Duck Dynasty characters.  I think I got off easy! I am not sure I could deal with a beard like the guys of Duck Dynasty have.  Do you like to dress up?  I hope everyone has a safe and Happy Halloween...we did ours Duck Dynasty style!

A Christmas Tradition

This past weekend we finally put up our Christmas Tree and I think Will hung just as many ornaments as I did, it is nice to have a little helper. Every year I especially enjoy hanging the ornaments since they carry such memories, many date back to when my husband and I were children to the new ornaments that we have added since we became a family. Some of our ornaments are over 30 years old, amazing that they have survived all these years. I especially loved that this year Will hung his special ornaments on the tree all by himself. Will has his own box and every year we add to his collection. I hope that one day Will also enjoys hanging his childhood ornaments and will carry on the tradition with his family. (btw Will has a thing for footie pj's right now and would like me to get a pair in my size, I told him they aren't available but he thinks Target has some)

Do you have a Holiday tradition that has been carried through the generations?

Happy Thanksgiving...

I’m Thankful for You by Joanna Fuchs

Thanksgiving is the appointed time

for focusing on the good in our lives.

In each of our days,

we can find small blessings,

but too often we overlook them,

choosing instead to spend our time

paying attention to problems.

We give our energy to

those who cause us trouble

instead of those who bring peace.

Starting now,

let’s be on the lookout

for the bits of pleasure in each hour,

and appreciate the people who

bring love and light to everyone

who is blessed to know them.

You are one of those people.

On Thanksgiving,

I’m thankful for you.

What are you grateful for?

There are so many things I am grateful for but I am most grateful for my family.
