It's That Time of Year Again


"It is good to be children sometimes, and never better than at Christmas, when its Mighty Founder was a child himself."
From Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol

Tonight was a night of family, of gathering around the ol' piano in the parlor, and "making rather merry" (as Bob Cratchit put it).

I only wish Suzy Snowflake could've made an appearance. Maybe next year...

Our sing-a-longs debut the talents of any who choose to share. This time around, Alicia and I did some fun impromptu duets on the piano, and had a great time at it. It brought back the laughter we once shared before I was a stressed college boy and before she was a busy Mom.

Christmas, I've come to find, is more about love than anything else -and Joseph City is overflowing with it. It's great to be home.

Those are great pictures! Lacy had so much fun. Thanks for keeping her for a while. She's going to be so bored when you go back!

I love this Steven! I wish I could blog the pic's that I took, but it will have to wait 'till all the "hustle & bustle " has past. I love our sing-a-longs, great memories, and, yeah, where was that Suzy Snowflake?
