Where Did Autumn Go?

Remember how excited I was about the First day of Autumn?

How is it over already?

I know, I know, Winter doesn't really begin until late December, but still...

People have hung their lights, Christmas trees are glittering through windows, "White Christmas" and "Sleighbells" are ringing through the air.  Autumn is forgotten, and Christmas is on its way.

I'm only half sad.  Autumn is my favorite season, but Christmas is my favorite holiday.  I love everything about it.  It just feels sad that we only experienced a few days of cool, crisp, Autumn weather.  Too much of Fall was hot and summery.  Now we're on to rain, snow, frost, the works!

What am I excited about as far as Christmas?  I'm looking foward to setting up our tree.  I'm looking forward to more time spent with family.  I'm looking forward to making  gifts for loved ones.  I'm looking forward to bringing Jesus' love to countless lonely hearts.  I'm looking forward to sharing my 3rd Christmas with my handsome husband. 

 I'm also looking forward to sharing my favorite Christmas recipes with you, and possibly even having a Christmas fashion week!  (interested? let me know!)

We'll see.  For now, I'm going to go cuddle with my handsome man and drift off to sleep while listening to Bing Crosby...

"May your days be merry and bright!"

 

p.s. if you don't find me at home, I may have moved into this house ;-)
