Celebration Day

Today is the day we celebrate The Epiphany. I’ve given a touch of history about the 12 days of Christmas in this little blog, and today we officially mark the end of Christmas as we celebrate the Epiphany. In the first centuries, Christians chose this day to celebrate the various manifestations, or “epiphanies” of Jesus’…

Sunset Bells as the Moon Rises

Last night we had dinner with friends. They live near the water and asked us to stop by before dinner so we could watch the sunset with some snacks before heading out. We got there a little after five and enjoyed some time catching up. They weren’t in town when Ian hit, so we shared…

Shake it’s Friday

If you had a chance to catch this little blog yesterday, you know I had the opportunity to spend some Toby Time, (btw I posted pictures of the little guy). All went well and we both enjoyed the walk in the sun, it was a nice break for a bit from work. As I was…

Some Thoughts to Close the Year

Well, it’s New Year’s Eve and like most people, I’ve been thinking about 2022 as we say goodbye to it. Like many years it had its ups and downs, celebrations, and heart aches, but most importantly, 2022 brought me closer to God. The first part of the year brought new opportunities, I joined a gym…

So Much to be Thankful For

We started out a few days ago to head north to visit our family for Christmas. Unlike most trips, we’ve planned it out to make several stops and not do the “all nighter” we might have done when we were younger. Well, yesterday we had a little setback, and let’s just say we stayed an…

Mary Did You Know?

Here we are, just six days away from Christmas, and if you’re like me, you’ve been playin’ the Christmas tunes quite non-stop 🙂 . I’ve put together a little playlist of favorites for this year and this song, Mary Did You Know, has been running through my head. I can’t even imagine the weight that…

It was great to see so much activity around it, and so many of you participating as well in your own communities. We also had our little community holiday gathering with great food and socializing. We finished the evening…

Precious Wreaths

Today we will participate in one of my favorite holiday traditions, the annual Wreaths Across America ceremony. No matter where we have been in this country, we have participated. This organization is, in my opinion, simply one of the BEST. Their mission is simple to lay a wreath at the headstone of every veteran. This…
