Thanksgiving isn't just a day.
It is a way to live life every day.
Whenever we reach November in the year my mind and heart begin a bit of a tug-o-war…on the one side…the quiet of fall filled with gratefulness and gratitude, November is the best time to acknowledge all of our blessings and all the wonderful things about living this life….on the other side…it ONLY 55 days to Christmas!!! Yikes!! I better get my act together!!…so much to do and enjoy in the coming season…see what I mean…tug of war.
There’s always a lot going on in November. But of course, November also features its very own heavyweight holidays, Thanksgiving and even before that, Veterans Day! Taking time to remember and celebrate those who have served our country is always a wonderful part of November! Be sure to acknowledge the veterans in your life this month! The High School has a celebration for Veterans on Nov 9th!!
I hope all our veterans will attend and be celebrated by this generation that - in thanks to our vets - has really known more peace than war…
what a special time it will be!
November is the month when the leaves come off the trees and the weather starts to get nippy in many places. Fall is in full effect, and winter is signaling its imminent arrival, just around the corner, in December. It’s a great time to slip on some warm socks, grab your favorite warm drink, and get cozy with loved ones.
We kick off our St. Jude campaign in November, so our coffee & tea blessings will go to their “Thanks & Giving” campaign as we give thanks for the kids in our lives! We will continue to support the fight against Human Trafficking with our HOPE jar…we have added a partner this month - along with AIM - we will support the Tim Tebow Foundation as they hit hard the front lines of trafficking. Check out what they are doing here…

And of course, November is a great time to join us at the shoppe for crafts, cooking or just some cozy fun! And we are adding to our monthly email a bit of December!! It is so close and so many fun things are happening, we want to get your calendar booked up early!! So if you’re wondering how you can celebrate a Happy November AND December…we have many ways that will help you to capture the spirit of the season, take a look at what is coming up!…
