Sweeping Through Life

I love the holidays but sometimes it seems it is always about the hustle and bustle. I love seeing the lights, going to the parties and building the family traditions, but sometimes I just want to sit at home and look at the lights on my tree and cuddle under a blanket and watch holiday movies. I am going to try to find a balance with all exploring the real reason for the season and all the fun of the holiday season. I am going to do this by doing a daily reading plan about Christmas  to give me more insight as well sharing with my daughter the real meaning of Christmas. I think that this will give me more peace, a closer relationship to Him (which would be a present in itself) and more stability to endure the hustle and bustle of the season. I love this time of year and will cherish all the memories made. What will you do this holiday season to be more centered?

I am excited about fall. Besides the fact that it means that my favorite holiday, Christmas, is not to far away, there is so much to do during the fall season. I look forward to going apple picking, drinking apple cider, carving pumpkins, bonfires, football and bike rides and hikes with all of the beautiful fall colors. The coolness of the weather is great for exploring outside or leaving the windows open for a cool breeze to sleep to. It is great for  nice fluffy blankets and cool leather jackets. I love Autumn for the change in the season and for daylight savings time. I look forward to fall for the all the holidays off from work and all of the cardigans I love to wear. Autumn is for wearing crazy socks and fashionable hats. Autumn is for a refreshing of the home in preparation of welcoming of family and friends for gathering and celebrating football, food and thankfulness. It seems like such a busy time of year,, and it is, but I look forward to every moment of it. Do have any...
