Happy December 1st! 

December always seemed to go by so slow as a kid, but as an adult it flies by.  We've got lots of fun Christmas things planned this month and lots of traditions to continue with.

Eat your heart out, Pinterest.


Speaking of Christmas, I still have Christmas scarves available in the Etsy shop!  Hurry before they're all gone!
