Nancy’s Ramblings

 As we undecorate our home today, I will miss the warm glow from the candles in all the windows, and the spotlights shining on the front of our home.  I have such a cozy feeling when our house is decorated, and then a kind of empty feeling when everything is put up.  But I don’t worry, I’ll soon have our home filled to overflowing again.  I certainly have a way of doing that!  lol

Christmas this year was about as special as it could get.  Family parties were hosted at our house, our wonderful boys, Matt and Andy along with their very special wives, Sara, and Stephanie filled our home with laughter and joy!  Oh, and I have to say that having two grandchildren, Lucas, and Ava this year was so much fun.  They say: “Christmas is for children…”, and well, it certainly is. 

There were toys spread everywhere along with wraping paper, books, baby seat, and swing, and lots more!  Ava was passed from person to person as everyone wanted to hold her.  Matt and Sara are such good, loving and caring parents – we are so proud.

Andy and Stephanie, his new bride were always here to play with the children, help me in the kitchen, and watch football with Steve on TV.  We are so VERY blessed that our children live so close to us, and that they enjoy coming home as often as they do.

Oh yes, Steve, my hubby, is always playing just as hard as Lucas, if not more so.  Those “boys” have so much fun together.  It’s just great to see that special bond they share.

Ava looks so SWEET in her little Christmas sleeper.  She has the bigest eyes, and the sweetest smile.  She just makes my heart melt!

I hope each and every one of you had a very special, heart-warming Christmas just as we did.
