Welcome, Christmas 2010!!!\u00a0 What a joy these days been,\u00a0 when the boys slowed down for moments –\u00a0 in the midst of Nerf battles –\u00a0 to be present in all that the holidays encompass……decorating sugar cookies, painting plaster village houses and Nutcrackers, decorating the tree, listening to Christmas songs nonstop, and reminiscing about Christmases past……<\/p>\n

May the spirit of Christmas fill your hearts, and may you experience true moments of joy and contentment. You have given me a special gift, by visiting my blog throughout the year….I do appreciate all who stop by whether you leave comments or not.\u00a0\u00a0 I am so thankful for your support and friendship in my little corner blog land.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’d like to share a few tree trimming memories with you, and snapshots of a few favorite ornaments on our tree.\u00a0 I wish I could stop by and see your tree too, for those of you who have one up!<\/p>\n
