Thank you so much for your comments on the most recent life change I wrote about, I am grateful to all of you for your encouragement. How nice it is to know I have so many friends out there that have been visiting for so long.
I’ve assembled table linens and dinnerware so I’m ready for Thanksgiving, and I’m getting a jump on the menu since we will be hosting again this year. This week I’ll open up the Christmas closet and start pulling out some favorites to begin decorating our home little by little throughout the month so by the time guests arrive the house feels festive and ready for more holiday memories.
