Christmas

Christmas has come and gone and all of the decorations are put away for another year. We did have a lovely Christmas being with the family. We gathered at our place this year for Christmas Eve and had good food, fellowship and lots of presents. The children played very well together and we were able to relax. We went to the Outback for our annual after Christmas family meal. Thanks to my sister-in-law and friend(Donna and Rose) for babysitting the bunchkins. It is such a treat to have a meal with all adult conversation:) I was able to spend time with my sister Sharra and her family. I don't see them as often as I would like so it's always a pleasure to be with them. Here are a few pics of our Christmas.
I'm looking forward to a good year even though it seems as if our world is a little shaky right now. God is still in control and I try to remember that.

Ciara looks so cute in her Christmas dress. I also like the header photo of her reading a book. Adorable!
