Christmas Blessings

It's crazy that Christmas has come and gone already! We had a white Christmas here. Hubby received an early gift last week... an epidural of steroids for his Spondolitis. He has 2 more rounds of shots. We weren't expecting to see any improvement until after the third round... but WOW! He is walking so much better and he can stand pain-free for over 5 minutes. It's truly a blessing.

I have a couple of Christmas photos and some holiday bookmarks I made for people who work with my son on a daily basis.



These bookmarks were made using Gina K. Designs stamps: Funky Christmas (Gina K.) and Warm and Wonderful (Rupa Shevde)

This is my son with his favorite gift on Christmas morning. Mom did great this year! Normally hubby does the shopping since he knows all the cool video games. So yeah, I'm proud of myself. LOL!

So, what is he reading that is so fascinating? It's an Eyewitness book titled, Robots!

Molly and Me

Isn't my niece the most adorable 3 year-old!?!
As soon as she walked in Grandma's door,
she ran into the family room and flew into my arms for a hug.
Kids can really make a person's heart feel mushy. *u*
