A Gift for My Daughter, a Gift for Me

Remembering the Christ child, laying in a manger, sent to free us from bondage. Being together with family. Reconciling differences with family and friends. Spending time remembering years past with loved ones. Giving and receiving graciously. Good food, warm drinks, cozy pajamas. Whatever it means to you, I’m sure one thing that we all share [...]

 
Our House Has a Toupee

Because I was embarrassed with the mustache that our house was sporting, and because I love Sears, and Sears loves me, we gave our house some #SearsRealCheer last week.
