I do not want to look over Thanksgiving by putting it in a Christmas fog with decorations, but if I slowly decorate for Christmas here and there I dont feel overwhelmed and seem to enjoy it more. I just do what do what I can, when I can.
It's just"stuff", it doesnt make or break the day.
Let me know how your family is doing when you can. Anxious to hear what doc said.
I have a hard time putting it up before Thanksgiving. I have not put anything up yet. I have been wanting to start though, so it is not overwhelming. I want to see your house though once you have decorated for Christmas. I know it will be amazing!
Until last year I had the steadfast not till after Thanksgiving rule but last year I started a little early because we had several things going and just put up things here and there a little before it was so much easier than having a marathon decorating session that is what I am doing this year too. I don't have the tree up yet but here and there in the house you are starting to see the decorations go up.
I am a wife, mom & and friend trying desperately to balance this wonderful ride of life! I try to never take for granted the blessings God has given us. The simple things are what mean the absolute most to me. I'm always in search of my very own Mayberry. I am constantly trying to grow more in Christ (even though His routes may be a tad different than what I would have had in mind:), be a better spouse to my husband of 18 years, a mom that will bless my children in every way possible (in all things eternal) and a jump-in-the-car-for-you kind of friend. Join me in my attempt to scale back, simplify, & enjoy the precious moments I want to forever remember in my heart.
