Merry Christmas
/ Autumn McKenzie JacksonHappy Holidays
Take a moment to slow down and cherish a special time with special people. I have been hosting Christmas Eve dinner for a long time. This year I sent out a spur of the moment open invitation to friends. If they were around and had time- they were invited to come join us. I love to eat! I love to cook! I love to give and share! And what better time than now. In the midst of a season of high expectation, remember- It’s not about what you did or did not get.

The possibilities are endless. She is learning to hear from God. She knows that He has a plan and a purpose for her life. She has persevered through many things and her story of overcoming with help others.
Tory Palecek is my best friend from college. I met Tory the first day of volleyball preseason freshman year at Colgate University. We were both incoming freshmen. She immediately made an impression on me.
I am learning to thrive in increasingly complex situations.
