Christmas Dinner!

... and to Grandma and Grandpa's we go! My parents hosted Christmas dinner... and it was absolutely delicious! When my mom began to plan the menu she asked what we might want. Of course, I knew exactly what I wanted... her famous ribs! And so... that is what she made. M'mmm! They are definitely the best!


Merry Christmas!


A snack before dinner...



Hugs for Great Grandma!


And hugs from Lorielle, too!


More Presents!


A Carriage/Hot Air Balloon for Barbie and Ken! Boy, do they rate!


A tractor and bulldozer for Grandpa's lil' boy!








Several months ago, Lorielle and I were visiting Grandma and for some reason Grandma pulled out her jewelry box from years ago. Grandma had a four-leaf clover bracelet and Lorielle fell in love with it. She begged my mom... cried... and pleaded. For months everywhere we went, Lorielle looked for a four-leaf clover just like Grandma's... ... ... What could be in this BIG box? Not a small bracelet that is for sure...


But... the boxes... grew smaller...


... and smaller...


Until... there was a wee lil' box...


And... what could it be? Yes, Grandma's four-leaf clover bracelet... on a new chain just Lorielle's size! Tears... and more tears!

Merry Christmas 2009! Of course, Christmas isn't about the decorations, food, or presents... it is about the birth of Jesus Christ! The best present we could ever receive! Happy Birthday Jesus!
