Making Everything Beautiful

I love this time of year every.  As I look down the road, Christmas has come to every door on the street.  Single candles on the sill, wreaths rocking on the door knocker, ribbons and bows curling around the stair wells, and lights in the yard ... it looks like Christmas is on the way! 

We recently added to our outdoor decorations.  We received several handmade pieces from some dear friends.  A beautiful lighted nativity scene that used to grace a 102 year old widow's yard now sits peacefully glowing in ours.  We miss you very much Ms. Lola, Kyle sends his love!

Our handmade snow family, reindeer and sleigh also sit out on the lawn.  I think Christmas inspires creativity.  For the past few years - we have been steadily adding to our collection.  Brent wants to add a lighted sailboat, one day ... but for now I think we're done.  That's a project for next year.  

See the glow?
