    Hey Brandy, I just wanted to come in and tell you how much I love your videos but I think you already know that. I’m so not ready for Christmas yet, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday of all the holidays and it seems to get skipped over by commercial marketing which is sad. Thanksgiving is a time of reflection, family time and just being thankful for everything we have and everything we’ve been through, coming out the other side A-OK! I love the copper patina ornament it’s gorgeous.
    Have a wonderful week Brandy, love ya bunches. ❤❤❤
