Good morning! As we enter the week before Christmas, remember that God loves you not the packages and bows. You are the present to those closest to you- friends and family. So grab a cup of coffee, don't stress, and enjoy the love of the season. God bless. ❄

Sometimes the simplest gatherings are the best. Hosted at Nana and Papa's house, the clarinet section of the high school marching band held their end of the party last night.

It was a potluck affair with jammies as optional attire. Christmas music playing in the background to the laughter of this special group of kids. A happy, intelligent, interesting and interested bunch of polite teenagers who were having a great time with each other's company.

I admit it... I didn't give enough credit to their touchy-feely ways after each rehearsal, as they sat upon the logo painted on the football field for hours (OK, but it was the last section to the bandroom every time.) I didn't grasp the connection the were building or the memories being made. While I rarely, can't say never, pushed Kat along to speed up the process, I still didn't take the time to treasure the culture of this band program which infused these touchy-feely ways.

So, host your kid's school parties. Have them where you can selfishly soak in the wonder of your child growing up around their peers. Remember, kids don't care if your house is perfect- they care if they have a place to gather and are felt welcomed.

Merry Christmas!

December is here and speeding up like a roller coaster! Strap in, hug your love ones, and enjoy the ride.

Kat has her first Christmas parade through a local neighborhood tonight with the Antelope High School Marching Band. I can't wait to see the Santa dance! ☺️

Happy Thanksgiving! The business took a year off as health and family issues became too urgent to take the backseat.

Happily, life is coming back online with new perspectives on priorities and balance. This next chapter is going to be excellent & nontraditional. More on that another day.

For today, we're getting ready to cook a Turkey Day Freast. Since this year it's just Kat & me, there's no rules for the menu!

Yesterday we started brining the 15.5 lbs turkey. I made the brine in the early morning, let it meld, then Kat added the turkey (she named him Ray) to the brine about 4:00pm. The bowls on the side are to keep the solution high up over the breast meat.

Ray will emerge from his bath about 4pm today. Then the fun begins! This is a Thanksgiving without rules.
