I try to wait until the day after Thanksgiving to start decorating. I won't say that Christmas music and movies aren't on before then, but decorations are not out until the day after. Today, while having nothing to do, I got down a few boxes, and put some stuff up. I have been scanning Pinterest to find some banners, and I found a few I liked. I made it my own, with Ruthie's help, and I love the way it turned out! It's not "Christmasy" but I like the fact that it can work year round, and it's a good motto to live by. We shouldn't just praise Him during Christmas, but all year.
Here are a few photos of my decorating for the day!
I like to put what we are thankful for on my scrabble tiles. For some reason I didn't get a pic of Randy's. His says "food." This is mine-
This is Ruthie's.
This is Randall's. (No, I didn't tell him to put that!)
I am looking forward to getting our tree on Tuesday and decorating it together as a family!

I'm just sitting down after putting up decorations! We put up the tree yesterday, and then had all sorts of lighting problems. I worked today, and stopped to pick up more lights on my way home. Bob was working too, so after supper we finished the tree and I put out the rest of the decorations. It's tiring but it sure looks nice!
I really like your banner and I love the scrabble tile idea. That Randall is a smart guy. :)
I just love the Scrabble idea!! So creative!
