So today was the very last day of school for the kids in the Savannah Chatham County School district which means that it was my day to present one of Styles’ classmates with a Disney themed-stocking. I asked his teacher last week if she knew of any families in need in her class and she [...]
Thanksgiving has always been when the Northcutt side of the family got together for the year. My dad’s parents were kind enough to separate Thanksgiving out for the family, leaving Christmas for in-laws and other family times. I didn’t grow up near them so my Northcutt Thanksgiving tradition started when I was 18, twelve years [...]
