My Favorite Time of the Year

Going Through Life One Blog Post at a Time

Making soap is even better with a friend! Thanks, Dilauna, for coming over. I am excited to see how these turn out tomorrow!

Laura is through Day 16 on her Advent Calendar.

I think she was a little excited to get this particular book!

There are eight days left!
Ari got John a Christmas-themed Squishmallow Advent calendar for Christmas. These things are ridiculously cute! I am not sure where we will put 24 small squishmallows after each one is opened, but it is a good problem to have.


Tonight, we went to the Veteran’s United Christmas Light display.

I took a lot of pictures of the unique Christmas trees.

I cannot decide if my favorite is this one…

…or this one.

I actually just love them all. I am glad that we went because this is the last year that Veteran’s United will be setting up the display.

It was a great display, and we have very much enjoyed going over the years. We will definitely miss it.
Tonight, we went to the Christmas light display at Shelter Gardens. Christmas lights are not quite as exciting as they used to be since we have teenagers, but it is still fun to see them.

It took about ten minutes to walk through, but it was really well done. I especially liked the Peanuts gang.

Another favorite was the train.

And, of course, Santa is always a highlight!

Tomorrow night, we will visit the Veterans United drive through display.
