I thought I would just take a moment today to stop and reflect a teeny bit on how blessed I feel to be surrounded by family these past few days...talk about an awesome Christmas gift! I'm really not up for any more travel until well after the twinkles arrive, so having my family and Todd's family here for Christmas has just been a treasure! This has been a very low-key and relaxed season--a bit of a departure from the way we've been conducting ourselves lately. The babies' room is fully bead-boarded and the crib is in place. The back porch is awaiting windows and finishing touches. I think we are in the eye of Hurricanes James and Isabella...anyway, here are a VERY few photos from the past few days. Ty and Uncle Tim, Lily and Ty in Venice NOT seeing Santa (they posed outside Santa's display but wouldn't go in), and me--26 weeks preggo. May all of you have a blessed Christmas Eve--what a special night to anticipate the birth of the saviour of the world... cheers!
