Dear Readers, I hope you all are doing well and having fun in the moment of the holiday happenings.  

My son came home from college Friday, so all is right in my world.  As a mother of 3 adult children (youngest 17), 

I am very aware that we are blessed to have them all around us this holiday season and that may not always be the case. 

Saturday was a very full day beginning with my son’s bowling league’s 

potluck party where I can get away with letting my silly side come out to play.   

Nothing like a gorgeous green sweater to dress up a pair of fun holiday leggings and t-shirt! 

1. 1. For the evening activities, I wore the Camden off the shoulder dress from

            the Amelia James line I sell. 

I received so many compliments on my dress and was tickled pink when

1. 1. I kicked butt in the Corn-hole game and got it in at the longest shot and won $60.
   3. My children offered to take my money and were in awe when I told them I had pockets in my dress.
   6. 
   8. My oldest was working ,but the rest all made sure to attend to support 
   10. their father who received salesman of the year for the second year in a row.  
   12. 

Just for fun and in case it helps someone else….

I bought these great boxes from Amazon to have a better way to store 

my scarves without taking up two dresser drawers.   

They are stacked nicely right next to my dresser and a fabulous solution.   

Dear Readers, Wishing everyone a great week and hope if you celebrate 

Christmas that despite the hustle and bustle you

laugh and have joy in the process and don’t stress yourself out.  

I also hope in the spirit of the season you help someone less fortunate, 

My family is going to spend one day this week shopping with my single my Mom, 

non-driving friend to drive and shop for her daughter and keep her distracted so 

the joy of surprises is in tact.  We have done this every year for the past 11 years and it has

become part of our tradition.  Prior to this we sponsored an Angel Tree child and some years still do that.  

Does your family have a giving tradition this season, Comment and let me know?
