HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY. NEW YEAR. I THINK. XOXO GRACIE

 

CHRISTMAS AT OUR HOUSE ~ EPISODE 6 ~ THOSE WERE THE DAYS

 Okay, enough about Christmas at our house.  

Today I bring back my Mom and my sister, Lindy.  Christmas past.   We had such fun back in those days when they were still here.  How fortunate I am to still have two sisters and two brothers still living.  

I've started taking down decorations, but I think I'll leave the Christmas village up for one more night.  

WISHING MY BLOGGER FRIENDS A SAFE, HEALTHY, PEACEFUL NEW YEAR.  

ANGIE, ME, MOM AND LINDY

Christmas at Our House ~ Episode 5 ~ THE CHAOS

First in my thoughts this year was, this will likely be Gracie's last Christmas with us.  

Not that she contributes that much to the festivities.  But.  She's there.  To snuggle.  To smell her sweetness.  To cater to her needs. To love and to accept her love.  

She is a part of our life that will be missed deeply when she goes. 

 

 Jasper has enjoyed this Santa since he was a baby.  He still loves it.  When you push the button on Santa's tummy his coat opens and magical lights appear inside while kids sleep in their beds waiting for Santa and The Night Before Christmas is told in its entirety.  

I'm always drawn to the younger ones at Christmastime.  They still hold Christmas magic in their hearts.

Gracie stayed close to Daddy most of the day.

That is, when she wasn't guarding presents. 

May God's love rule in your heart as 2021 comes to a close and we welcome a new year.  God Bless!  

Christmas Day 2021
