Hey all. I'm still fighting off this cold, but I'm getting better. I'm super excited today because Timmy, our oldest, is flying in to stay for a couple weeks! He was recently laid off from his job, and since Eddie (our cousin that was down here helping Tim work) has recently returned home to be back with his family, Timmy is coming to help his dad out. YAY! David is super excited to be with his big brother. It will be nice having him in the house again. I know that kiddo's grow up and move out, but sometimes...JUST SOMETIMES...it's nice to have them back for a minute. Lots of Love! Gotta go clean and prepare! YAY!
I love Christmas time! It'll be even that much better with more family around. This is my tree. I couldn't fit my pretty angel topper in the pic, but you can kinda see my carousel under the tree. And I love the fireplace with the stockings. When I was young, my mom always put the best presents in my stocking. It was the best to me anyway. She would hide a small gift in a bunch of candy that would be sentimental just between her and me. Sometimes it would be a ring from her jewelry box that I admired, or a bottle of perfume that I loved or my diamond necklace that broke and I lost :( The stocking was my favorite part of the holiday. I try to do the same for my kids with stockings. A little something extra...just from mom.

I love Christmas too! My mother used to do the same thing for us. Stockings have always been the best part.
Glad you son is home for the holidays!
I am looking forward to Christmas more this year and getting excited. I am glad that you will get to spend time with Bro. Timmy.
I wanted to tell you that the other day we were driving in the car and Jada said "Mommy do you know who lives at the ocean?" And I said "Who?" thinking that she would say fish or whale or somehting but she said "David." She also thinks that we need to come and visit and see David so I said maybe someday.
I didn't know that there were fireplaces in Florida! I'm glad your family is coming for Christmas and hopefully there will be plenty of work for him to do there. Thanks for posting a picture of your tree!
I love having a fireplace to hang the stockings on (even if ours doesn't warm the place but just looks pretty)! What a blessing to have your family together at Christmas. My son is coming home to have a sleep-over with His Sissy on Christmas eve. I don't know who is more excited. Her or Me!
Merry Christmas to you all
Hello, it has been a long time! I'm sorry about that, I'm trying to get caught up though :) I hope you had a great Christmas, and hope you have a great 2009!
