~Cutting down the Christmas Tree

 Thanksgiving weekend was the perfect weekend to cut the tree down. We’ve had some above average temps here lately, and you just never know when the weather will change here in New England.

Thanksgiving was spent with my  family. When life gets hectic and busy… getting together with my family never falls short of a good time! My sisters  can always make me laugh, through good times through bad, they’re always there, I love my family!
