THE HOLIDAY SPIRIT IS ALL AGLOW

The holiday season is in full swing in our part of Arizona (photos later in this newsletter). Down here, I do find it difficult to get in the spirit because I won’t wake up to a winter wonderland on December 25. But I love the warmer weather.
 





In December, it’s fun to drive around our park. And this year, we got in the mix of things. Ray wrapped the bottom half of our palm tree in lights. He also decorated Rusty the Moose so he wouldn’t feel left out of the festivities. As you can see, nothing is safe from tinsel and lights this time of year, including golfcarts. HA!!!





 
The above photos are from the Mesa Arizona Temple. While we toured the grounds lit up for all to enjoy, we marveled at the beauty surrounding us. I wanted to ask someone at the Visitor’s Center how long it took them to complete the massive project, but I forgot by the time we finished. I’ll ask next year and let you know.
 
WRITING NEWS:
An Unexpected Christmas Gift is doing quite well. THANK YOU for buying my books. I love reading the reviews on every one of them. FYI: If you haven’t purchased my latest book yet, the price for the e-book goes up on January 1, 2024. It would make a great Christmas present for family and friends. Hint! Hint!!!
 
And I have to also THANK YOU for sticking with me for another year of newsletters. And as 2023 comes to a close, I’m not sure what 2024 holds. None of us do, but I’ll trust the Lord does, and He will help me write more stories to share with all of you.
 
In closing, I know I’m not alone in saying that December is a busy time for all of us. But amid the added stress, remember the Reason for the Season – Jesus Christ. He came to earth to save us from our sins. Turn to Him today! Trust me, you will never regret that decision.
 
 
Until next time…
