For the past two years I’ve shared lists of books that would make great gifts and I’m back with another list of book gift ideas today. You can see my lists from two years ago and one year ago as well. I am linking to Amazon and these are affiliate links, so if you use them and make a purchase, I may receive a small commission.
View PostIt’s time for my first half of December book review post! I am sharing what I read in December so far, although I am skipping my 5 star reads to share later in the month. The Amazon links to the books I’ve read are affiliate links and if you use them and make a purchase, I may receive a small commission. If you’ve read any of these books or are interested in them, I’d love to hear about it in the comments!
View PostI’ve been wanting to go back to the New York Botanical Gardens for years. We used to take the kids when they were young but it hasn’t fit into our NJ / NY area visiting schedule for a while! This time we decided to go, even though it was pretty cold outside. We spent more of our time inside the Holiday Train exhibit, in which classic NYC architecture is created out of plants, complete with trains passing by.
View PostBecause we were all in NJ for Thanksgiving, we held my in-laws’ 60th anniversary party that weekend as well. (Their actual anniversary is December 26th). I am currently reminiscing about their 50th anniversary party 10 years ago! At that time, their first great-grandchild was born, and he is now almost 10. Plus, they have many more great-grandchildren that were there to celebrate with them!
