This week I'll be trading out many of our houseplants for Poinsettias. We will also look for other fresh greenery as well.
This year we intend to keep our Christmas decor and celebrations simpler than previous years.
Happy Monday, Sweet Friends! I hope all of you had a lovely and blessed Thanksgiving.
This week's focus is all about the sisterly dynamics of Mary and Martha. Appropriate timing, isn't it, as it's the first week of Advent and the beginning of the Christmas season.
Let's try not to be a distracted Martha this week!
Prayer requests?
Until next time...
Blessings!

Happy Friday, Friends! This week we were challenged to take notes about those who annoy us, and then remember how God feels about them. Here is the prompt:
Over the course of twenty-four hours, each time you get annoyed by someone, think about that person as a unique child of God, fearfully and wonderfully made. Record how this affected your day.
Friends, I took my little tiny notebook around with me for a day, and I truly lucked out because everyone was so kind, patient, and seemed to be excited about Thanksgiving!
I have nothing!
I should probably try this a little closer to Christmas!
This week's scripture:
Happy Thanksgiving, Friends! This week's focus is all about not sweating the small stuff. How appropriate with Thanksgiving as well as Christmas prep happening this week! We are challenged to overlook small things that people will definitely do this week to annoy us.
Are you up to the challenge? I hope I am, and I will pray that none of us will encounter too many annoyances (large or small) this week.
Have a blessed Thanksgiving, Friends! Prayer requests?
I want to thank all of you because you truly have made a difference in my life!
I love you all!
Until next time...
Blessings!
