By Krista Nesbit, Publisher, Macaroni KID Lake Orion - Rochester Hills - Oxford November 1, 2023

Put away the costumes and cobwebs - It's November! ...The month that motivates us to remember and acknowledge all our blessings and give thanks to God for all we have. I love this time of year - the clocks fall back an hour on November 5th making our mornings brighter and evenings cozier. We have three weeks until Thanksgiving. Are your sweatpants ready?
