Christmas Future

It's a joke in our family that I am sometimes mistaken to be
Shane's grandma.
I must look really old? :)
 
 
I guess it's time to do something about that...
 
What to do?
What to do?
 
 
I guess the only thing I can do
(besides plastic surgery)
is to officially become a GRANDMA! 
 
 
First grand baby expected in mid-June!!!
So stinkin' excited!!!

Christmas Present

Christmas...It was a little crazy around here!
We have had a houseful~
Curtis and Shae are staying with us for the Holidays and we also had
Rick's brother & sister-in-law and their 2 boys with us until today.
(Their 2 girls were with us for a couple of days too)
 
It's been a lot of fun. Glad the cousins could reconnect~
We also passed around a little stomach flu. Thankfully only 3 of us had that.
11 people with stomach flu would have certainly sent me over the proverbial edge!
 
A few favorites from this Christmas season:
(pictures aren't great, but I haven't had time to re-shoot...eventually I'll figure out how to take better pics with my point and shoot!)
 
A new Nativity


Flickering candlelight


A watchful elf


My all time favorite candle EVER!
(Christmas Presence, Gold Canyon Candles)


More flickering lights
I've had this little votive since Curtis was in kindergarten!
I love the Precious Moments Nativity on the glass.



Croaking, caroling frogs


A new Christmas tree, to fit in the alcove by the fireplace.
Love it! It has a kind of frosted look, it's really quite lovely~
Pre-lit...already have a strand of lights out. Don't love that!


Not Christmas, but a project we finally got done.
Love, love, love the family picture wall!

 
Wishing all of you a Merry Christmas & hoping you are enjoying the Holidays with your family!
