The holidays are upon us and I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I did, as always surrounded by friends and family. We ate delicious food and had lots of fun. And now I am looking forward to Christmas, my favorite holiday. There’s much to appreciate about the season – the joy and twinkle in the eyes of children, the trees and decorations, Santa and the birth of Christ. May your holiday season be wonderful!
