It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

What makes it so special? People. Not gifts, decorations​ or costumes, but people. Friends, neighbors, family and family​ by choice ​who gather to celebrate all sorts of holidays from Diwali, Halloween, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, ​Kwanzaa, Christmas, Hanukkah and New Year's.

 

Let us create a safe place for our kids to trick-or-treat, shower respect on our veterans, give thanks for our nation, love ​for those who came before us and the freedom to celebrate all, or none, of these.

 

This issue features a fun day trip destination, places to celebrate Veterans’ Day in our community, holiday-worthy appetizer recipes from your neighbors, how to prepare your home for the cold winter weather forecasted in the Farmer’s Almanac and two profiles: one of Mr. Bellville himself and the other for the brave and giving volunteer firefighters who keep Austin County safe.

 

Happy Holiday Wishes!

 

 

 

 

 

I have fond memories and cherished photos of taking my son, Max, to pick out a pumpkin each year.
