“But now, O Lord, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the work of your hand.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭64:8‬ ‭

Hello sweet friends! It seems that each month just slips away so quickly. One week from today is Thanksgiving! I can hardly believe that everywhere I look the Christmas season is already upon us. With Thanksgiving being late this year, many have already decorated their homes for the most wonderful time of the year. This is particularly true with bloggers. My Renaissance Man put up our tree in the dining room on Monday, but it remains bare. Whirling around in my thoughts all at the same time are the plans and preparations for Thanksgiving and decking the halls. Whew, I am already tired! Over the past several years I have slowed down on purchasing any new Christmas decorations. I have boxes and boxes of ornaments, baubles, and collections, so why do I need to add more? But, each year I attempt to give a new look to my favorite collections.

Porch decorating is always a priority! This fresh wreath last year was a nice addition.
