As long as David's still around, the tree is still full of presents.
Mostly from him! I always cherish the way he's so thoughtful with every gift he picks. This year, among other things, he got me a pink rocker camping chair because I'm always scrambling to find a chair for a needed event and a corner shelf for my hallway.
We "attended" two Christmas Eve services together as a family this year. First we watched LakePointe's service online on Tuesday and then attended our own service at Terrace Lake Church on Wednesday night.
Pizza after church, in keeping with tradition.
The cats got their stocking first. :) We normally get some kind of toy, but this year we just put treats in their stockings.
Boots liked the big empty box. See, he didn't need any special toys to enjoy himself.
I bought myself a coloring book to travel with. It's all about coffee! More pages to color, laminate, and put up in my "coffee-shop" classroom. I don't have time to color at home, but it's the perfect activity for traveling.
Creative. An IOU gift for jeans at Boot Barn.
A card from my parents that had a picture of one of my Dad's latest paintings.
So neat! And a gift inside.
These are the softest, fuzziest socks ever!
Fun stocking stuffers.
Good stuff!!!
Just what I've been wanting! And perfect for a Christmas trip to Texas!
Boots saw a suitcase and got nervous.
My collection of nativity ornaments is growing!
The greatest gift of all.
We stayed up late watching a Christmas movie, then had a brunch later this morning of our own homemade kolaches and eggs.
Five hours till my flight takes off to head to Texas to see Juan (and others) and give him his gifts. There's something special about being able to see all my immediate family on Christmas, even if it's in the last few hours of the evening.
