Merry Christmas 2011

Merry Christmas to our friends and family! With so many rushing around at Christmas, I've found my December the opposite. What a wonderful season to be alive and a great time to be on the Earth! We're grateful for this wonderful time of year of reflection on things that are most important, experiences we've had that brought us to where we are and helps us to know where we are going, and in remembering who has given us everything, even Jesus Christ. We have been blessed beyond measure this year. Makes me sing "Somewhere in my youth, or childhood, I must have done something good" because this year life created many wonderful memories. We found joy and fun in the following:

Snow
Silver Dollar City
Tae Kwon Do tournaments
Field Trips
Dry Ice
Camp outs
Friends
Lake trips
Birthday parties
Baptisms
Clubs
Fishing
Swimming
Baseball
Homeschool
Piano
