It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas........

Happy belated Thanksgiving everyone! Sure was nice to have a 3 day work week and some extra time to get some stuff done around the house and relax. We had a busy Thanksgiving day but it was nice catching up with family. We sure have SO MUCH to be thankful for this year! I struggled with the idea of getting up early to go shopping and get some deals but then soon realized I have so much already and there wasn't really anything I needed, just wanted. So many people are struggling right now meeting basic needs! I'll survive, although it does kill me to pass up good deals.........:)


Saturday we had our 2nd annual Christmas tree cutting out at KC Trees in Allegan. They offer donuts and cider and you walk in the field to find the "perfect tree." We also haul Christmas trees out of there for them so it's always nice giving business back. This year was extra fun as Daris and I were picking out a tree for OUR house this year! Here are a few pics!














Luckily a tree stand came with the house when we bought it so we got to put it up when we got home, after re-arranging the furniture. As for decorating, we are starting from scratch so I'm looking forward to getting to town and picking some stuff out! Trees sure are boring with NOTHING on them! Check back for "finished product" pictures! Hope everyone enjoys preparing for the holidays!
