IT’S MY BIRTHDAY!!!!
And I am thankful that the Lord has blessed me to see another year. I had a really wonderful day today. My husband and girls serenaded me with the happy birthday song, we went out to breakfast and then we decorated the house for Christmas. I am truly blessed to have the family that I have.
I’m sitting here relaxing, drinking some gourmet white-hot chocolate with my girls and watching a little movie that their grandmother purchased for them at the Southern Christmas Show in Charlotte today. We had a really great time. There are so many things to see there. My girls were anticipating getting eating the mini doughnuts and a customized Christmas ornament. I was looking forward to buying he extra thin Dewey ginger spice Moravian cookies (yummy) and getting ideas for Christmas decorations.
I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of going to the Southern Christmas show. I look forward to it every year. I don’t remember the first time I went, but I know it was when I was much younger without kids. I try to make it a point to go every year. I really enjoyed my day and I’m when I can spend time doing things that I really enjoy.
Christmas is right around the corner. I’m not ready, as far as gift buying is concerned, but I am ready for the Christmas spirit. I love Christmas its my favorite holiday. I am thankful that we live in a country where Christmas is celebrated, and I’m most thankful for the birth of Jesus, which is what the holiday is supposed to be about.
I was looking back and pictures of past Christmases. We have been very blessed to have our family around for the Christmas holidays. Its fun looking back at my pictures. Sometimes I don’t see the improvement in my photography, but looking back at the pictures lets me know that I really am moving forward.
