The Reason For the Season

Winter has arrived and I plan to hibernate until Spring. Not really but almost.   I love to stay in and paint...or quilt...or draw...or maybe even clean my house.

This year we are planning to have our Christmas celebration at my son John's home.  I am so excited to go there as are the other members of the family.  He has been redecorating and it's going to be his unveiling. 

 I have been baking cookies and will be making some dishes and the ham to take to John's home.  I can't tell you how much I love Christmas and giving gifts.  I never forget that this season is about the birth of Christ.  I am so grateful that I have been forgiven because I have made so many mistakes in my life.  Now my life is so good and maybe I won't make so many mistakes any more.  I will do my best.

These pics are of the yard around my home.  The snow is gone now but I'm sure it will come back.  The snow is so beautiful, especially when I don't have anywhere I have to go.
