I love Christmas and often can hardly wait til the middle of November to get the decorations out. It usually takes me a week to get everything put up. Thankfully the boys and Jarrett are a good help. Here are a few photos of our home at Xmas.
This year we also received a beautiful memorial ornament in the mail and I wasn't sure who it was from. It made me think of my grandpa and of others who we miss up in Heaven. We later found out Jarrett's mom and dad shared it with us and it became one of my favorite ornaments of the year. I love walking up to the trees and just admiring the ornaments and the story behind where each of them came from. It was such a touching gift to have this added this year.
As quickly as the season comes, it goes just as fast. I sit now in a house that feels empty but also clean and fresh, ready for a new start that January brings. I will look forward to next Christmas and the feel the house brings when its decorated.
Until next time,
Angie
