A Day of Christmas Joy

“Best way to spread Christmas Cheer is singing loud for all to hear!” ~Buddy the Elf

My absolute favorite is A Charlie Brown’s Thanksgiving! I never ever miss it on TV, but thanks to Apple TV (more sarcasm) it is no longer on our local programming, but instead on streaming. Which just means, I was able to watch it even earlier this year than normal!

Life in the Suburbs can be the most creative place in the world…if you let it. To share my love for my home, I have decided to start a Life in the Suburbs photography series. I want to document the little wonders in our everyday life that we just accept, but never really appreciate or stop and look at with care.
