Last year // this year.

Late Thanksgiving + Travel + extra furniture + being sick = it's Dec 5th and our Christmas corner is looking sad.

I got the advent calendar set up by the first and hung stockings. But so far that's it.

Today I got the Christmas music playing so that helps a bit.

Celebrating 14 years of marriage with this guy!

It's not like we are short on books.

I'm so thankful for my husband's work today, pouring concrete to help our rain barrels have more water pressure next summer. (Gravity fed)

I'm currently ripping up some Thai basil to give to church friends this evening.
