learning to live outside the walls.

Hey! I finally got some good use out of our new dig. camera, and thought I’d share a few of my favorite pics from this year’s Thanksgiving extravaganza at Allison’s parent’s house.

If you have oen or two you’d like to share, you can post a comment on this post with the picture in it, or send them to resonate[at]hsriveroflife[dot]org and I’ll post them up! Let’s make this thing HUGE!

‘Tis the Season (Part 2)

(I just realized I had this written on Thursday when it was supposed to be published, but it never made it to the front page)

In keeping with our weekly tradition (it’s a tradition if it’s twice, right?) of talking about the holidays, the question for this week is on that same subject: Traditions. Answer if you dare. (not sure why I worded it that way, just sounded fun)

My family and I have traditions for different holidays. For Thanksgiving, we eat a meal together and then spend the evening decorating our house for Christmas. On Christmas, we always open one present the night before (usually the ones Allison tells us to open. hehe). I would like to start a new tradition where we help out at least one family enjoy Thanksgiving more by providing food and fellowship with them.

What traditions do you and your family have each year for the holidays? Do you like them? What traditions do you know others have that you would like to adopt?

Let us know. :)
