It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas...

and I love it!

I think I dreamed of this years ago.

I love the traditions yet I embrace the spontaneity.

It's that wonderful time of the year.

I love this vision. All those angels on the tree are In Honor or In Memory of a loved
one affected by cancer. The students are purchasing the ornaments
made my teachers with funds going to Relay For Life.
I also love that below (and all throughout the office) are prob 70 Angel Tree gifts
sponsored by our school for our students. What I love even more is that
friends I go to church with but teach at different schools asked for an Angel from our school.
The spirit of Christmas is right here.

I love the lights on my house. The lights resemble
what is to come.

Christmas in Maryland. Grandma R loves reading
her cards. I'm still immature and prefer to
read them later.

I imagined the wonderful, beautiful chaos of wrapping
gifts under a Christmas tree while watching
Elf. I  made it happen.

The aftermath of some great food, friends and family
in crisp Downtown Culpeper.

Dad's gift to everyone. Target finds. Everyone LOVES
this gift.

Moral of the Story: "The best way to spread holiday cheer is to sing is loud and clear!"~ Buddy, the Elf.
