Christmas Time

We started out this month by celebrating two birthdays, one for our oldest who turned 16 and received his driver's license and the other was for our 8 year old boy who was baptized and confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We then celebrated a promotion at work for Mr. Jewels, got our Christmas tree and had dinner at Cafe Zuppas. We then put up the Christmas tree and finished the final decorations on the home. This year's tree consisted only of lights and the star and new-to-us vintage tree stand. Sam was the only one who complained about not having any ornaments and I told him next year we will put every ornament we have on the tree. There were many days of baking and cooking, many days of knitting, many days of wrapping, many days of shoveling, and many days spent at home and enjoying our blessings. These photos are a few of my favorite little things around the house at ChristmasTime.
