This and that.....

I wanted to thank all of you for your thoughtful comments and prayers! Our family had a rough Thanksgiving! We had van trouble on the drive up to Arkansas. It was our transmission. So, we left our van in Decatur and drove a rent-a-car the rest of the trip(and might I add, we were packed in the little Dodge Journey). We were really lucky to even get that! While we were in the middle of loading all our luggage to our rent-a-car, I got the call about my grandpa. While in Arkansas, all three kids got the stomach virus and the day we returned home, Mitchell got it. We're hoping for a GREAT Christmas. Again, thank you for your prayers! This event has taught me never to take for granted the time you have with loved ones!!
Thought I would add a couple of pics......we're ready for Christmas!!
Our fun gingerbread house!....and we're not finished yet!! hehehe

Below is the Christmas wreath I made.
