It is officially the Christmas season! My favorite radio station is playing Christmas music 24/7 🙂 I’ve loaded all of my personal Christmas music onto my iPhone so I can listen to it where ever I go. It looks like the inside of my house may not be getting decorated again this year 🙁 The boys will get the outside done next week since they are busy building a float for the Christmas parade the beginning of this week and we go on our annual Christmas Disney vacation at the end of this week. However you are celebrating, I pray that the joy of the season dwells in your heart!
Welcome to the 115th week of Turn It Up Tuesday! We thank you for joining us last week for our Thanksgiving edition, and every week, as we have some fun linking up and getting to know each other! We had quite an amazing week last week, and it’s because of all of you! We are so happy to have you all join us for another amazing week!
Turn It Up Tuesdays is all about being happy, excited, energetic…and having fun! Link up all of your favorite posts (old or new) and meet some awesome bloggers in return! Link up your funny stories, DIY posts, recipes, mommy moments — anything at all. We want to laugh, be entertained, be inspired, and have a good time! Thanks so much to everyone that joins us each week and makes this link party the best that it could be!
