Merry Christmas!

Melissa 6

I just wanted to send out a quick Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all my current and past clients and friends! It’s been very different for us this year with the move to Florida, I’m not used to shorts and tshirts in December and still sweating ????! Yesterday a cold front came in and it was 61, I literally almost cried when I walked outside because I was so happy!

We learned that finding a live Christmas tree in Florida that is big is difficult. Going from cutting your own Fraser Fir’s in the mountains of NC to buying one from a tent in the Lowes parking lot was definitely a kick in the gut. We literally got the last tree that was over 7 feet, luckily it was about 10ft which is what we wanted but I’ll be honest y’all it’s a tall Charlie Brown tree ????.

But the lights are hung up on the house and we had our annual Christmas photos done so while things are different we are still trying to keep with our own traditions. We swapped Busch Gardens Christmas town for the Miami Zoolights festival and really enjoyed it!

Now it’s time to sign off from work, finish wrapping presents, bake more cookies (we already ate the first batch) and enjoy time with family! Merry Christmas everyone!
