Christmas should be a time of joy, but with so much commercialization it is sometimes hard to remember what it is really all about. Family, love, the birth of Christ and sharing! I feel so lucky to have my beautiful grand daughter for the three weeks before Christmas. This is her first Christmas in the US and she is loving the lights and Christmas Trees and happiness of the season.

Our tree will be righted later today, but it just did not want to stand up straight this year… It looked so great when we picked it out, we knew it would be happy in our home.
