Mary Grace enjoying cookies and milk

Here is a picture of Mary Grace enjoying cookies and milk after school. This time of year reminds me of the many wonderful memories I enjoyed as a child. Growing up the holiday season was always full of Christmas parties, shopping, baking, reading the Christmas story, lots of decorations, and of course the hopes that Santa clause would stop by our house on Christmas eve(he always did). I am so appreciative that my parents always made this time of year so special. Now I am enjoying those same traditions with my husband and daughter. With all of the excitement and chaos of the season I am trying to slow down and remember why we celebrate Christmas. Jesus is the reason for the season! Happy Holidays!
