It's All About Love

What great comments! Each year, we simplify the holidays a little more.

It is not about things but about people. Although we do buy gifts for immediate family, we do not go overboard and the focus is on sharing time together.

The holiday meal is also a sharing, with each member bringing a dish. It's about love and making memories, not cooking all day and baking and buying expensive gifts. We do not need to be frenzied because of the holidays...relax and enjoy.
