December is only a day away!

I LOVE THIS TIME OF YEAR! So many fun things to be excited for. such as:




we are planning a night of caroling through SE Portland. A small group of us went last year and it was so much fun!

We will be getting our Christmas tree on Saturday!



I saw these lovely ornaments the other day at a cute store on Belmont. Im going to go to the craftstore soon to get the materials. Absolutly lovely!


... and maybe ill get a kiss under the mistletoe this year! haha ;)

...[Thanks]Giving...

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving...
I will be enjoying the day with my family and eating too much food.
A few things that I am thankful for:
.the way the Lord has brought our family closer together. One of my favorite memories of all time was a few months ago when we all went downtown to the Saturday market... ate on the waterfront... drank coffee at stumptown....took soo many photos... and just enjoyed eachothers company without arguing! =)again.. thank you Lord!
.my home.
.the security I have in Christ.
.a job {especially one that feels like home}
.community/friends.
.living in such a beautiful city.
.my health.

...there are so many more things but ill keep it short.

what are you thankful for?
