Okay, so WOW! I absolutely cannot believe another year has gone by and a new year is going to begin! Is that even possible?! This year has flew by so fast, but it was a great one! Christmas was really good too! Saw my other brother and his family for 5 days! It wasn’t a long enough trip, but it will do! My niece has a special part in the Christmas Eve program at church, she did very well! After the church Christmas Eve service, we visited with some church friends and then went home. Ate dinner, relaxed and went to bed. On Christmas morning, we all woke up and opened our gifts and our stockings. It was fun to watch everyone open their gifts, especially when I saw my niece and nephew, their expressions on their faces are priceless. Had an awesome breakfast, biscuit and gravy, hasbrows, and scrambled eggs. Relaxed most of the day.
