The holidays are a time of celebration, relationships, and gathering, but what about when you are missing the presence of a loved one? Many circumstances can prevent us from getting together with the people we love during the holidays: death, military, serving missions, traveling, finances,  scheduling, and the list goes on. With intention, a little planning, and some thought, you can still enjoy the holiday and make it memorable and special! 

In this week’s podcast Maria Strange and I talk about the many ways we can make the holidays special even without the presence of a loved one.  Maria has first-hand experience with her husband’s military service. She has some great ideas and suggestions including naming recipes after loved ones, creating a video potluck, gratitude, service, and so much more! Join us this week for some great ideas to make your holidays memorable!
