I’m thinking about family today.
Because we are nearing Christmas when many of us reconnect with distant loved ones.
Because it’s a good time to count our blessings and hold our loved ones close.
Because tragedy surrounds us even at the holidays and any moment we can hear horrific news that can change our lives forever.
So I’m thinking no matter what we should embrace the family we’ve got.
While we are mindful of loving each other, we can also embrace our Christmas traditions: making Christmas cutout cookies, displaying beautiful Christmas lights and trees, playing with our children, shopping, or whatever.
And if things get to be just a bit too stressful, we can just a take break from it all – a “home-away-from-home” getaway.
I know just the place.
This month is Customer Appreciation Month at the Farmstead Inn. For only $69 plus tax (2 adults and 2 children, subject to availability), you can grab your kids and spend your time relaxing in the hot tub, swimming in the heated pool or playing some basketball or pool.
Or maybe you can spend your time just curled up on the cozy bed with your family watching holiday movies.
It’s not available on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day or New Year’s Eve but if you come now, you can be rested for all the festivities on those days.
Because family is important!
