This Christmas season has been one of the most
hectic and yet memorable ones we've had.
There have been days I've enjoyed the holiday
and days I couldn't wait for it to be over.
We did have the best kind of
'White Christmas' -
beautiful white snow without ice or too many inches.
Of course, most of you know the hectic part has been
the excitement of the public's demand for the
music and video of Steve & Becky's song,
"Where's The Line To See Jesus."
They were so busy all of December with
orders, emails, interviews, etc. etc.
which involved the whole family at least some of the time.
Even Spencer had to do some interviews and photo shoots.
It seemed almost unreal when Christmas Eve actually finally arrived.
We always go to Pietro's with Steve's family for Christmas Eve.
Hadley with her momma Jen.
Gracie with her Uncle Karl.
Brothers Coen & Spencer with cousin Jackson.
Jackson with sister Ayden.
After dinner we go over to Paul & Nancy's for cookies and games.
Hadley playing ping pong.
Ayden taking in all of the commotion -
Paul has about 7 pinball machines.
Coen playing pinball.
Robbie and Spencer playing some WII game.
Gracie enjoying the quieter corner with a cookie.
Jackson learning the pinball skills.
Christmas Day I woke up not feeling at all well.
Not wanting to just cancel Christmas I made Steve do
all the hands on cooking while I supervised.
However, I never even got out my camera
so you'll just have to believe they all seemed to enjoy
the food and I think the kids enjoyed opening gifts.
I know Coen told me more than once that he
really liked the gifts I got him - such a sweetie.
We even had special guests Alan, Angie, Ben, & Mindy.
I enjoyed visiting even though I didn't eat a bite all day
and I appreciated everyone's tolerance of my
sad excuse for hospitality that day.
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas
and will enjoy a Happy New Year!
