Such Wonderful Christmas Memories....


Our Christmas Season was the BEST!!!!


From our knitting girl's holiday party....


....to our weekend in our "Holiday House in Santa Barbara".

It always starts with our candlelight
Christmas Carols at the Santa Barbara Mission.


There is LOTS of laughter....


...and time for rest.


There are presents to unwrap....


...and laps full of sweet children to add to the magic.


There is time for "Oma" to rediscover her inner child!!!!


...and visits with our sweet niece.


Little ones learn the joy of opening gifts...

....and sweet little girls look like a princess!!!!


There are many treats to enjoy....

...and new traditions begin.

Happy Birthday Jesus cupcakes to enjoy!!!
I hope your days were spent as happily.

I have never felt more blessed.....
what a joyous holiday season it has been!!!

How fun to be altogether in a house in Santa Barbara for Christmas. Loved the plaid jammies. I hope you had some too.
Such a happy blessed family. Just think, next year there will be one more. Love that you are swinging with Clare. So much love. Nothing better when celebrating Jesus's birthday.
