A Christmas visit from the Clauses is really a perfect, memorable event to share with your children or grandchildren.
When one of my grandsons was younger, he lived Christmas every day. When he was playing with other children, he always wanted them to play Christmas..no matter the time of the year. His birthday is in November, but when he was turning 4, my daughter decided the theme for his party would be a Santa Claus party. It developed into “A Christmas Visit from the Clauses”.
I believe that most of us become emotional when unpacking our Christmas decorations. They are not just “things” but are precious memories that we get to re-live each year. Afterwards, we then lovingly put them away in a safe spot until next year.

One of the Thanksgiving traditions our family observed was that everyone came to our house to eat. This included grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins and friends.

The Greenbrier Resort is located in White Sulphur Springs, WV, which is only about 3 hours from our home. I had planned this trip several months ago as a surprise to my husband, but I got so excited that I told him about a month ago. Continue reading ANNIVERSARY TRIP TO THE GREENBRIER RESORT→
The grandchildren are back in school, football has begun, temperatures are cooler at night, and the leaves are turning colors, so fall must be right around the corner.
