Christmas review

Christmas morning started off by making this yummy breakfast I made (recipe here.) And mom made some orange orange julius.' 
Next dad read the Christmas story. Luke 2: 1-21

4-14

4 Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, 5 to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child. 6 So it was, that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered. 7 And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.8 Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. 9 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. 10 Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.” 
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: 
       14 “ Glory to God in the highest, 
      And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!”


That's always the highlight of my Christmas-hearing the truth behind it all. 
We prayed, then opened up our stockings first.



 The animals were excited to receive their gifts!
 My dad loves to juggle!
 The animals present stash








 Afterwards. That's always fun to clean up ;)
 I got this adorable mirror that dad helped put together! (more like I helped. he did most of the work)

Afterwards we had a great meal, Ham, potatoes, bread, veggies, salad. Mmmm-mmm!


Mom and I made these mints! They were a big hit and I'm not surprised they were! Such an amazing treat! :)

I hope everyone had a fun Christmas season!

9 days until Christmas


Fascinating circles.

What's so fascinating about really bright circles? 
Well to me it seems like an artistic effect because it's a blur of light and creates a unique photograph.
That's why i like to take pictures of it so much :)

Out of focus.....

My sister and her hat

My sister wanted a photo-shoot with her new hat so I posted a few of them! 


The last one is my favorite. It reminds me of Sara Bareilles' cd cover! (picture from google)
