Feeling blessed

Today we celebrated Christmas together as a family.  We met all together at church and listened to a really good sermon.   I am so thankful that we are able to do this together as a family.

Afterwards we went home and prepared coffee and snacks.  It was really nice to relax and spend time together enjoying each others company.  Everyone was in good spirits.  We don't often have the chance to do this and we love the times that we have together.

The time flew by, but we enjoyed every minute of the time spent together.   I look forward to reading my new book and am sporting some beautiful jewellery created by the kids.  The look of pride on their faces when they gave them to me is something that I will treasure for a long time.



Kristen Speelman - the wife of our nephew Robert, created this wall picture for us to give to Laura.  She was thrilled to receive it.  Kristen did an amazing job.  We love the text that was written and it will look beautiful hanging on the wall.



We love our grandchildren with all our heart and thoroughly enjoyed the time spent all together.  They were so good today.




Unwrapping gifts was fun.  You should have seen Hailey jumping up and down when she saw her new sweater from Under Armour. 







After a fun afternoon together, Brody was exhausted and also developed an sore ear.  We really hope that Laura caught it in time with the ear medication.


Our beautiful girls humoured their Oma by posing for pictures by the tree.  Thank you girls.  It was fun.
