Christmas



MERRY CHRISTMAS
I love this time of the year when we are able to break out all of the holiday decorations and decorate the house. This is Aaron's and my first year in our house and it was a lot of work trying to figure out what we needed. We decided that we needed another tree to put in our front room because the on we had was going in the family room. I got all of my grandma's christmas tree stuff when she passsed away so I was planning on doing my tree with the stuff that she had, but while we were at the store Aaron found all of these blue ornaments and decided that this is what we were going to do. This is our tree in the front room it is so much fun when the lights are on it it sparkles because all of the ornaments have glitter on them. Our front room has a fire place it is fun to put our stockings on it because I use to hang them on our intertainment center.
I am so thankful for this time of the year when we can celebrate christ's birth. Our family has family night on the first sunday of every month and this month it was Amber and Josh's turn to do it and they talked about the real meaning of christmas. They showed a video of christ and all of the miracles and things that he did while he was here on earth. After the video we had our family christmas party and that was a lot of fun. My aunt cheryl and her family were there and we played games and had fun. I love being with my family on christmas and wouldn't change it for anything. I love this time of the year and wish everybody a very Merry Christmas.
