After we returned home from our little Thanksgiving getaway, we turned our thoughts to all things "merry and bright." While I do think a person can go nuts and put up Christmas decorations too soon, I always want to get them up shortly after Thanksgiving so that we can enjoy them for as long as possible. I don't know about you, but I think there is something therapeutic about lounging on the couch, mug of hot chocolate in hand, bathed only on the glow of the Christmas tree lights. Between school obligations and church obligations and the shopping frenzy, it is just a good way to sit back, relax, and have a Calgon moment.

We hope that all of our family and friends near and far are having the very merriest of Christmas seasons!
