Merry Christmas!

The trees are up,

Unstaged!

 

Ornaments have been precisely placed,

Stockings are over the coal fireplace,

Cookies, coffee cake, brownies are baked,

Nativity is set up with Christ as the center piece,

Christmas movies are strung across the mantel,

Tree scented candles burn every night,

Snow covers the ground,

Packages have been sent,
garland and lights are hung,

Christmas party was a huge success!

Christmas Sunday was awesome, a lady performed "oh holy night"

At the end...which is my favorite Christmas song!

My brother who has been on a mission in Russia for almost a full year now

Gets to Skype with us on Christmas!

My Brother Ty is on the right

And although things are not exactly how I thought they would

Be this Christmas....prayers being sent to my grandma who just found out she has cancer.

But amidst the trials we all have, things are amazing, and I am so blessed!

Wishing you and your loved ones a

Wonderful Christmas!

May we all remember the true meaning of it,

Gather family and friends near and 

Truly indulge in each others company!
