Great Joy in Decorating~

Yes, I decorate earlier than most but how could I not when 6 littles

lived many lonely days and nights with no anticipation of Great Joy.

AND!

It is HollyMei's first Christmas and her face said it all~

Great Joy when it was all said and done!

It was nice to get the wreaths hung~

 The trees decorated~

 and because we enjoy a fire almost everyday, 

our stockings hung on the banister~

Decorating done, Christmas cards ordered, 

and enjoying our favorite time of the year~

Luke 2:10~

But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. 

I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people.
