Family fun

We have been having all sorts of fun. Steven took a week off so Chantelle could go see Josette in Fl. We also took a weekend trip NO KIDS to Williamsburg. That was lots of fun. Here is a fun slide show. Some old pics some new but a lot of fun!

Christmas

Christmas comes but once a year

This one will fill our hearts and linger there. What a wonderful Christmas! On Christmas eve we went out to visit a new friend for a while and when we returned Santa had come. We quickly snuck our children off to bed so they would not notice until the morning and then we marveled at the beauty of it all.

There were dozens of beautifully wrapped presents under the tree. The most beautiful rocking horse ever, and my freezer had been filled with gluten free delights to last for months to come.

Walking in to a scene like that can't help but take your breath away. We set out the few things that we had to add, and went to bed. Or at least Steve did. It was so beautiful that I couldn't sleep. I tip toed out to the living room for some time to think and pray (an cuddle with that amazing rocking horse.)

The kids were very grateful for all they had been blessed with. My only sadness of the whole day? I'm too big for the rocking horse of my dreams.
