Christmas Celebrations 2010



 We are so thankful we were able to spend time with so many of our extended family this year.  
Although I did not do very well at getting photos at all the gatherings we have the memories and below are a few pics to share with you.

 So tough for me to get Gabe to sit still with the girls.

 Papa and Nana and the Littles





Grandpa and Grandma





Go Tell It On The Mountain
Over The Hills...
And everywhere!!!
That Jesus Christ is born!!!!

Tree

The girls were delighted that we were finally getting our tree.  We went to the tree farm and picked it out and cut it down yesterday.  What a beautiful day!  With all the snow that had fallen the night before and the sun shining and fresh crisp air.  We got to go on a sleigh ride, too.  And then this evening to put on the Christmas music.  Pop some popcorn and sip hot cidar and decorate the tree.  Sounds peaceful, doesn't it?  Well, it was a blast, but it was super noisy and busy.  Now, is the peaceful time.  The littles are all tucked into bed.  Jesse is watching football.  I am addressing Christmas photos and enjoying the twinkle of the tree....

Advent Link

 Our family just started this series of advent devotionals this week.  We haven't done a Jesse Tree in the past, but this is a free one you can download from Ann Voskamp.

I know a posting is long overdue.  I will try to post more this weekend.
