These are some portraits of our Christmas eve and day. The first pictures start as Annalise and her friend Miracle decorated a gingerbread house-then goes to our traditional breakfast which is usually at Cracker Barrell. Our Christmas eve pictures are next with the reading of Luke to our meal (Joe made shrimp fettucini alfredo and appetizers and christmas cookies) .We then opened one gift. This year it was pjs for the girls. Then we watched the Nativity Story. That was really powerful and kept us reminded why we celebrate this season. The girls slept together downstairs and fell asleep to a video as usual. The next set of pictures are of Christmas morning and throughout the day and evening. We got a snow storm Christmas eve and it blanketed everything with about 10 inches of snow-it was beautiful! (which led to building a snowman) ending the day with the hot tub. The last pictures on the second page being just scenery of the front and back of our house and the pond. Merry Christmas everyone! May it be blessed and filled with the presence of our Lord.
