November, that time of year where football season comes to a close and basketball begins. Unless you live in East Texas, also known as BEAST Texas because of how great the football teams are here and the amount of players they send to college and NFL teams. We're now in early December but still have a few teams in playoffs. It's been nice to get back into the rhythm of shooting basketball though.

Miderm elections were only a month ago, but somehow feel like ages ago. I spent that night at independent and democratic watch parties and focused on reactions to one of the most talked about Senate races -- Beto O' Rourke and Ted Cruz. I worked Thanksgiving so I covered the Tyler Turkey Trot and some Thanksgiving meals. I also got up hours before the sun rose to photograph what Black Friday shoppers were buying. With Thanksgiving over, Christmas festivities are in full swing, and I already photographed a few of them before December had started. Looking forward to the moments the holiday season will continue to bring!
