We had a very Merry Christmas. I dropped the ball this year and failed to send out Christmas cards so the above is our family photo. I feel kind of guilty about not sending cards, but I will get over it.
We still were the recipients of beautiful cards and photographs of those we hold dear. I truly hope to be more on top of it in 2013. My excuse for this year is that I turned 40!
We got together with family at Jake and Kelly's on the 22nd. We gathered for lunch which worked out well for my dad, who seems to get tired quickly when we get together in the evenings.
The cousins enjoyed time together!
Here's my attempt at all the cousins together! The days following our family Christmas were joyful and relaxing. We attended the Christmas Eve service at our church and pretty much stayed at home the next two days. It was kind of nice to not have to hustle and bustle!
The only place I went in 48 hours was to the nursing home for a visit with my dad.
We got some nice gifts but made an effort to focus on the greatest gift of all....
our Savior, Jesus Christ!
The boys got ipod touches and Corinna received a Kindle Fire so they enjoyed fiddling with their new devices.
JJ fried us a turkey for our Christmas feast.
Indeed, our Christmas was a blessed one. Hope yours was too.
I will end with a picture of the family from Saturday.
God's peace to you as we head into 2013. I will be ringing in the new year at the beach!
