Favorite Christmas memories:
Probably my favorite memories of Christmas would be of my dad reading The Christmas Story from Luke and one Christmas at The Ranch with Mom and Dad, we cut down our own tree and made homemade decorations and that was the Christmas I got my American Girl Doll, Kirsten! I can still smell the new of my doll and I remember how her hair was done and everything she was wearing, and I remember Mom smiled so big when I opened the box and squealed with delight!
Some Random Things that make THIS Christmas Special:
Gift shopping, setting up the Christmas tree and Dad fixing our old angle's lights that hadn't worked in years!
Marita and I joining the Family Gift Exchange for the first time this year.
Baking some goodies for our family Christmas.
The family gathering together.
Well there it is! That was fun!
