Savoring

We used this PhotoBooth shot for our cards this year. I love it. I think it looks like we are in front of a roaring campfire, when we are actually all in our P.J.'s snuggled up in front of my monitor. Mostly I think the photo hints at how happy we are to be together. One of the main reasons I love this holiday is for the few days that time stops and we just stay together. Last night we started the holiday Scrabble marathon, all of the ingredients are collected for our Christmas day feast, and the garage is hiding all sorts of presents for tomorrow morning to surprise Annie! She's so excited! Another thing I look forward to is a walk on the beach or in the redwoods before dinner, in any weather, to enjoy the beauty of this time of year.
I'm savoring the warmth and the sweet joy of connection that I enjoy from you and everyone in my life. Thank you!

You do look filled with love and joy and peace. It is how I think of you. The connection with you
fills me with joy as well.

Gorgeous! What a great idea for a family photo.

Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year.

We like Scrabble and I will even play alone sometimes. But I love your idea of a walk in the redwoods or along the beach before dinner it sounds peaceful and enchanting.
