I love Christmas...
spending time with family, watching movies, listening to Christmas music
And this year was no different
My mom does such a great job decorating the house at Christmas
And she's made each of our stockings
Christmas Eve service at my parent's church
Here's my brother about to sing his solo during the Messiah
My mom convinced my dad & I to help her bake bread Christmas morning
So we kneaded...
waited for it to rise...
and watched it bake
While waiting for the dough to rise & bake, dad & I relaxed with the doggy & watched a movie
Then the rest of the family arrived
We enjoyed dinner together & opened gifts
It was a great day!
~~~~~~~~~~~
On Sunday, we celebrated with my dad's side of the family
Ate another huge meal
And opened gifts (in a living room that seems to get smaller each year!)
The aftermath
~~~~~~~~~~~
I am so grateful for a family that I enjoy spending time with each holiday!
