| Christmas joy at its best! |
 |
| The wonder of new things you never knew you wanted! |
Although we joked that school wasn't out this year until about 20 minutes before Christmas Day, we really did our best to celebrate the season this year instead of just one or two days. We had gatherings before school was out, in between, and after. A great time to just enjoy. And, although some of my gifts weren't wrapped until moments before they were packed in the car to deliver to their recipient, it was O.K. Tony helped out tremendously this year with the purchasing efforts. I really couldn't have done it without him.
The hustle and bustle didn't get the best of us. We spent time with those we love the best, listened and sang along to lots of Christmas tunes, went on a trek to see a beautiful lights display, watched a few movies that got us in the spirit of the season, and told and retold the Christmas story so that those two sets of ears who are always listening would know the true meaning of this very special time of year.
