Merry Christmas...........

  

from our home to yours!!!!!

Black and White Wednesday~Peace

Wishing you much peace this Christmas!!!!!

Our days have been very full these last couple weeks enjoying this wonderful time of year!

This is our first Christmas in our new home and we've been having fun filling it with all of our decorations that hold so many precious memories. With moving around so much it is always fun to pull out all of our decorations that have always stayed with us all of these years. We look forward to new memories in our new home too!

It is a very busy time right now with the kids in school and their activities. All 3 are in Christmas performances this year so we have been running around to practices and such. Faith's "kids are music" class she is in was given speaking parts and we found out Faith will be opening and closing the show! Excited but a bit nervous for her!  I also somehow have been volunteered to be party planner for both Faith and Reed's class so I've been organizing food and activities. So much fun and excitement, but I am looking forward to their break when we can slow down and enjoy doing some baking, curling up watching Christmas movies, and just enjoying this peaceful time of year. I am behind on Christmas cards and shopping but do not feel stressed this year about it at all. Maybe it is the older I get the less stressed I feel about these things. Even if it does not all get done, Christmas will still come and be filled with all that matters most.

I'm hoping to get on here before Christmas, but if not wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!!!!!

HO. HO. HO (Sarcastically said as in Christmas Story)

 

We decided to try our towns "breakfast with Santa" this year. I thought it would be a fun way for Faith to visit Santa and get photos without dealing with the mall crowds. I am very picky about my Santa's and just LOVE a great Santa! You can imagine my face when I turned to see him........

Not everyone is cut out to be Santa, and this was one of them! I almost refused to take photos but Faith was so intent in telling him exactly what she wanted in full detail! By the time she was through I think Santa had a real headache! lol

Our official Santa photo this year! LOL We'll have something to look back and laugh on!

My beautiful girl!

Faith brought a candy cane from home to give to Santa. Wish he would have been a little more grateful! lol

The whole breakfast really was a joke. I am not one to complain but with what we paid to go to this I called the city this morning to let them know I was not happy. Like I said, I am very picky about my Santa's!:)

Last year we had such a wonderful Santa visit! Faith is actually wearing the same outfit she had on as this year.....of course with a much better Santa! You can see HERE!
