Black and White Wednesday~Peace

the long road
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!!!!!
