This weekend we had a wonderful time at the Opryland Hotel. It brought back so many memories of the day when we were married. It was decorated so beautiful for Christmas, and we shared our touring with David's brother, Brian and his family. We took the boat ride and ate pizza, and topped it off with delicious Haagen Dazs ice cream. If you ever get the chance to go see Opryland Resort Hotel with the beautiful decors it is well worth it! We enjoyed the rest of the weekend, and celebrated Austins 13th birthday. I am still in shock, that my boy is a teenager. Wow!! He is still such a sweet boy, and he loves life and nature to the fullest. I have started making my candies, buckeyes, oreo choc. dips, and Italian Gallettes. Have a very merry day, and I hope you enjoy everyday of this blessed season.

Decided to create a "Marcum Family" blog, when I discovered one already existed!! We are the Marcum's of Colorado. 2 kids, 9 yr old boy, 12 yr old girl. When I read the list of candies you made for the holidays, I was wishing I was in your Marcum family!
