Christmas Greetings

I needed a touch of red 

and since my camera is collecting dust

it was Pinterest to the rescue

the tree is trimmed ~ finally!  

better late than never this year I say

the halls are decked ~ cookies made

menus planned and I wrapped the final gift last night

the house is clean and ready for company

thanks to hubby for the help with that one

tomorrow night we will gather around the table

both mom's and one brother

then we head to church

everyone is spending the night

not sure if that was a good idea but we will make the best of it

then we will have 7 on Christmas Day

as the girls will join us

that night we will go to my mil's

for munchies and gifts

I am sure I will reflect on past years

and miss Lee just a little more than usual

I purchased little pewter frame ornaments this year

and put a pic of him in each

ours in on the tree and I gave my mil hers on Sunday night

she cried ~ she loved it

I am so glad that she did

tonight I did some food prep

and checked my list

I am cozied on the couch with my family

and watching the tail end of Polar Express again

love that movie

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas

and the happiest of holidays

the magic of Santa

and blessings as we celebrate the real reason for the season

Happy Birthday Jesus
