'Tis the season...

Christmas tree? Check! In the stand, in the living room, all ready for lights and ornaments.

Hot apple cider? Check! Simmering on the stove, with a whole orange and cloves and cinnamon sticks, filling the house with a delightful aroma.

Christmas music? Check! After playing it sporadically for the last month and a half, we are now in full-blown Christmas music mode. Right now it's David Archuleta filling the house, one of my new favorite voices.

Fire in the fireplace? Check! Cheery, crackling, and only the second one we've had so far.

Christmas decorating? Check! After finishing enough homework to give myself a free day yesterday and today, I'm so excited to be able to actually participate in the decorating this year.

My heart is filled with joy. There is much to be thankful for. God is gracious, kind, and pours out His love upon us. I am so blessed.
