It is possible to give away and become richer.
Let the season begin. Christmas time is here. We started the day after thanksgiving shopping for our sub for Santa family of 7. Ashley and Tess helpped we had so much fun and they were awesome.
Then Saturday we went Christmas tree hunting with the Packers and Whit. That was a blast. In the snow. With the ones I love. Only 2 bears in the woods this year. Bear bums that is.
Then on Sunday we set up our festival of Trees. This year was dedicated to Uncle Paul. What a great man,full of love, laughter and knowledge. He was "One of the Stapel few" This is our 7 year in the festival. We love "giving a tree to Jesus" as Seth puts it. I love set up day, it is my way favorite. Everyone there is giving gifts and all are beautiful on this day. Later the crowds roll in and judge which ones they like and don't like. Which ones are good enough gifts or not. But on Set up day, all trees are the perfect gift, one is not better than another, and the place it packed with people that give and care more about others than themselves for that one moment.
Tuesday Dave and I went to the bidding on the trees. We purchased one that had not sold. It had Dinosaurs on it. Seth loves it.
Wednesday I took the Young Women.
Friday, Dave Volunteered some time to be an isle worker with me. It was a fun date. To do our favorite thing, People Watch and do service. He was dressed up and looked so nice.
I know you can give away and become richer because I feel so rich with blessings today.
