Hooray its Christmas Again!

So my Christmas Season starts on November 1st. I know there are some Naysayers out there that claim it doesn't start until the day after Thanksgiving but to them I say "Nay." With all the time it takes to decorate for Christmas, and the good feeling that it gives you when you see those decorations up, why not get the most out of it? So my blog is officially "wintery" today. However, I will say we all took a walk outside today with short sleeves and shorts on because its in the 70s and sunny here in Dallas. Yep, its wonderful. I'm feeling grateful today for being here in Dallas. Grateful for my wonderful family, both my close immediate family as well as my extended family. And I'm grateful for all of my friends too. I read the words to "Count your many blessings" today in Relief Society, that is such a great hymn. If you have the time, go take a look at it, it really helped me as I'm feeling overwhelmed with work and home and the holidays and just life. I've got so much to be grateful for. During testimony meeting the counselor's wife bore her testimony and said, and I quote... "God Rocks"... that's Texas for you. But he does.
