Our Christmas Surprises

Early Christmas Morning!

We awoke to almost 4 inches of snow and it just kept falling so gently and peacefully! Later in the daylight I was able to photograph the reindeer tracks all around our house. NO kidding!

We haven't had a white Christmas in St Louis for quite a while, except for flurries last year that didn't last long. It was so exciting to have snow again. I felt like a little kid!


These two little creatures came in the house with a special person and I just had to photog them near the tree. Aren't they adorable?


What a very special celebration of Jesus' birthday it has been. The family members have all gone home. It's so quiet it's deafening now. We enjoyed a brunch-munching, gift-giving, game-playing, music-making, movie-watching great day together and topped it all off with a dinner and cookie desserts.

Happy birthday, dear Jesus!

You're the best gift of all!

I hope your Christmas has been merry and bright, and I wish for you a very happy 12 days of Christmas too!
