I’m finishing a fun holiday DIY project this week, plus preparing for family guests coming on Thanksgiving. My 17 year old daughter is hosting an outdoor friendsgiving at our backyard on Tuesday, it will be extra work but a lot of fun, she has the greatest friends and she’s a high school senior so it’s extra special since they will all be off on their own personal journeys next year.

My teenage son was making fun of me yesterday because I was playing holiday tunes. He says it’s against the law to play Christmas music until after Thanksgiving but I disagree. I have to listen to holiday music when I cook or decorate this time of year! Which camp are you in?
