Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Very Merry Christmas To Everyone!!!!

This season has been very busy leaving very little time to do any blogging or scrap booking. So now that the kids are immersed in their presents I wanted to at least stop in and wish everyone a great day today. I hope every ones day is filled with great times and lots of love!

From all of us to all of you

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Tis that time of year!

Family relationships for James and I have been very trying over the years. We have both had harsh words, bad feelings, and held grudges or had grudges held for us on both sides of our family. So for along time this time of year has been my least favorite because to me it is the time of year when we should be able to forgive and come together as a family. It has taken a while for this to happen, we are finally getting there. For the first time in years I look forward to spending time with all of our family from both sides. It feels really good to know that we all can love each other no matter our disagreements and come together at this time of year. I am so thankful for this Thanksgiving and for the ability to be able to let go of bad feelings and embrace our family for who they are. It feels even better to have family become the center of the Holidays! To me that has always been what the Holidays were about!

So thank you to all in our very large family for being nothing more then you!

We all love all of you and are looking forward to continue to grow together as the family we all want to have!

Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas!
Love Mandi, James, Brianna, and Russel
