Well I love Christmas too and what it represents. But mostly I love seeing my children. It makes me sad to think some aren't comming home for the Holidays. Soem are PG whith twins and some just can't get away. But I am thankful for the ones I will see. My questons is since this is the Savior's birthday, what present will we give HIM?
I wish I could be as festive as you. We don't even have a tree. We are going to buy one at the after Christmas sale!!! Your tree is gorgeous and I love that David used the car to put up lights. That IS the mother of all Nativity sets. You two are so good for each other. Good luck with the retail crowds.
I love your door!! How much did you pay for that? I would have done it for free :) Let me know for next time!
So cute...I love the pictures you added to your list! Have a Merry Christmas!
You let your hubby stand on the top of your car???? Yikes. It could leave a dent!
