I love Christmastime! This fall has seemed a bit more fast-paced than ever, but life is so good. I have been working on some handmade Christmas gifts, and I'm enjoying thinking about and praying for the recipients as I'm working - sustained, quiet time is a great way to sit and enjoy the season. An added bonus is that I have mostly avoided the stores!



I just love this ornament (Will and I are both youngest children)...I think I may have posted this on a previous Christmas blog, but my mom got all of us one of these a few years ago (Cindy's says "Oldest Child, Mom's Favorite," Brian and Alicia's both say "Middle Child, Mom's Favorite). So cute.

Here's hoping your days are merry and bright.

So glad that you'll have hugs and time with so many family members this Christmas. I'm envious of your time to create so many Christmas presents yourself. I usually have done that but this year, I just never reqrouped to get it done. Have a wonderful Christmas!

Your tree was beautiful! I hadn't looked at blogs since before this was posted. I hope I get to see it some time in person! Loved being with you for the few days we had together.
