Today, I’m keeping my thoughts (pretty) short, sweet and filled with gratitude. 2020 has been quite a year. It’s been a time for reflection, a time for tears, a time of worry, a time for prayers, a time of generosity, a time of unity, and a time of hope.
Even in the dark times of this year, the spirit of Christmas could be seen and felt through the generosity of others, through the sense of community, and through the unwavering hope for better days ahead.
When I started this blog a year and a half ago, I had no clue what to expect. I’ve “met” new friends, found comfort in writing, and become a part of a community I’d only known from the outside looking in.
Thank you for reading my posts, sharing your thoughts, and supporting me on this blogging journey.
Since I can’t send a card to everyone (geez, I barely got my cards out to anyone this year!), I’d like to share our Christmas card in a very 2020 way…virtually!
Happy Holidays:

Beautiful weather right after Thanksgiving provided for the perfect day to bribe my kids with ice cream for nice clothes and smiles…

Homer wishes you a Merry Christmas too!
While I know it’s been a difficult year for most, and Christmas may not look the same as in years past, I’m hopeful for more lighter days than dark ahead in 2021!
Truly, thank you for being a part of this community.
From my family to yours, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
Such great pics! I feel like they’ve grown so much just since I started reading your blog! Enjoy your Christmas, Jen!

They have! One family member who we see pretty often said Hadley’s grown an inch in the past month 😂Hayden will catch up, I’m sure.
Merry Christmas to you and your family too ❤️

I keep telling Hayden maybe in middle school 😂😂 he will catch up. I was exactly like Hadley at her age. I just didn’t have a twin brother to compare heights in every picture taken 😂
