Christmas Waltz


Wow. We've been so busy I hardly even noticed that so many months went by since I last posted! Work, new babies, parties, school, holidays, birthdays, and so much more have all filled our days to the max. Hopefully [since this is Christmas...and the work load should be a little bit lighter!] I'll have time to put up some new pictures, especially since we didn't end up putting a picture in our Christmas cards this year. It was as much as we could do to send out cards at all! But that's [finally] all done and the cards are in the mail, yay!

This week, aside from the usual, we've been sooo busy making yummy foods [caramel corn, cookies, salted caramel hot chocolate, homemade marshmallows...yum!], shopping, wrapping pretty gifts, and getting packages ready to mail out. We've made time in the evenings to watch a few Christmas movies together and sing carols...and dream of a white Christmas [which, by the way, probably isn't happening this year...we're still dreaming though!]

Josh and Suzi's little girlie, Eva Charis was born on October 31st this year...Spencer is crawling EVERYWHERE and has a mouthful of new teeth, while Silas has started losing his [his two front teeth and a few more are missing now]...Savannah and Sophia celebrated their 5th birthday with a special tea party a couple of weeks ago, and Stefanie's husband, Ethan, will be coming home from the Middle East in a little over a month! And that's just a glimpse of all the happenings around here...


Frosted window panes
Candles gleaming inside
Painted candy canes on the tree...

It's that time of year
When the world falls in love
Every song you hear
Seems to say
Merry Christmas
May your New Year dreams come true

And this song of mine
In three quarter time
Wishes you and yours
The same thing too.
