November Delight

and here we are..november

october was a month filled with so much
getting married, a roadtrip, family time

i sit here at my desk snacking on leftover halloween candy
listening to christmas music
planning a thanksgiving menu
getting excited over wishlists, black friday and upcoming holiday traditions
anticipating the holiday season like no other
savoring every moment of it knowing it will pass by in flash
