November always feels like it's truly Fall, especially here in Georgia! It takes a while for me to get there, I'm all about Fall for now! I've enjoyed the Fall decor around my home and plan to continue to through Thanksgiving.
November brings with it much to celebrate. We happily celebrate birthdays, an anniversary, honoring our Veterans, and Thanksgiving this month! We have so much to be thankful and grateful for!
I wanted to share a few 'November' celebrations and events on the list thus far.

On the evening of Saturday, November 5th, we enjoyed a night at the Atlanta Opera, attending the performance of "Silent Night." We claimed it as an early Anniversary celebration by also purchasing the dinner package offered. We sat at a table with two other couples and enjoyed our dinner, as well as friendly conversation with them. One couple informed us they were family to the orchestra conductor, her Mother and Brother. The opera was very entertaining and interesting. The music, performance, stage and effects, were all captivating and very well done. A memorable evening and worth seeing opera!

November 8th - On my 20th birthday, 36 years ago, I was celebrating my marriage to this handsome man!
We have shared many adventures together. We've created two beautiful daughters, a beautiful home, a strong friendship, and a good life. Through highs and lows we have stuck together, swimming upstream when we had to, going with the flow as needed, and happily sailing through the great times.
~Happy 36th Anniversary to my husband, my best friend, and the one I love, Marty. Here's to many more years of life, love, and laughter together, as friends and partners, as the better halves to each other, as husband and wife, as you and me, as us!

~Election Day 2016~
On November 8th our nation elected the 45th President of the United States, Donald Trump. I'm not going to express my views/opinions one way or the other here. It is an important event this November so I felt it should be included in my post. I will say, "I pray for our nation and hope everyone comes together and will work towards a united America. The United States of America." God Bless the USA!
