MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

WE WISH YOU ALL A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS AND THE HAPPIEST OF NEW YEARS IN 2008!!!

WE LOVE YOU ALL!!

OUR CHRISTMAS ANGEL!!!

IT'S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS!!

I have had such a great time decorating our new house for Christmas this year! Emma has been lot's of help in decorating! She loves our tree's and the stockings for some reason are probably her favorite decoration! We have so far managed to keep the animals from tearing everything down!!!

I put this smaller tree in the foyer so that you could at least see from the road that we had decorated, plus it is a great tree to display all of Emma's ornaments that she made at school last year, plus the one's that we are collecting this year! These are the best ornaments of all!

We call this our "fun tree"!

We ventured over to Stone Mountain again this year with the Glassco's for "A Stone Mountain Christmas". This is so much fun, especially for the girls, but it is getting to be so crowded that you spend most of your time waiting in line. We did have a great time though. We took time this year to ride the ducks....Mrs. Laura, this was sooo much fun!!!! We also rode the train around the mountain which stopped at some point and did a wonderful presentation of the Christmas story. Many times at secular holiday events, they don't bother to share the true meaning of Christmas. The girls visited with the snow angel, made cookies in Mrs. Claus's Kitchen, wrote letters to Santa, and made bags of food to leave out for Santa's reindeer. We enjoyed seeing the millions of beautiful lights that they had displayed. There were lot's of other things to do, but the girls were exhausted before we could finish.

BREAKFAST WITH SANTA

We had breakfast with Santa a few weeks ago at Emma's school! Most of the children were thrilled to get to see Santa and tell him their Christmas wishes, but not our little Emma. She wanted nothing to do with him that day, nor any other time that we have seen him this season. We have even discussed having Santa leave her presents on the front porch because she doesn't like the idea of this "strange man' coming inside her house while she sleeps!!!
Emma's dear friend: Maddie, McKinley, and Macey Glassco

Now these girls are all about Santa!!
Emma was very excited that Macey came to breakfast! Macey is in kindergarten this year, but her mommy checked her in late so that she could take part in this special day!
