Christmas 2009



Christmas has been very different this year for our family. We have been so busy, I just haven't had time to really get into the Christmas spirit. This is a little disappointing because I love the baking, colorful lights, trees, cards, parties, etc. that comes with the holidays. But even without all the glitz and glamor, Christ is still the reason for the season. Baby Jesus arrived without any fanfare or celebration. I'm sure that the day of his birth didn't turn out the way Mary and Joseph had hoped or planned, but never the less, it was a special day.

My day was special, too. It was my first Christmas as a grandma! The kids had fun ripping through their presents and of course wanted more. Bryce just wasn't himself today and was running a fever. He did eat pretty good once we got some Tylenol in him. I enjoyed cuddling with Hailey at the end of the afternoon when she was wanting to take a little nap. All in all, it was a pretty good day. Holidays with the family is the best!!
