Lots of Happiness this Christmas....

 
Many happy things and good times surrounded me this Christmas.
 
We were fortunate with good health when the rest of the world seemed to have sickness in each house. 
 
Our family played many games, ate lots of food and we watched at least one movie every single day.
 
Many movies at home.. and the Theatre.
 
We had a full Christmas season with lots of Family and Love.
 
Here are some highlights we captured....
 
 
 
Baby Lia under Mom's Christmas tree.
 
I love to kiss and snuggle her.

 
 A Favorite Present.. Chris and Danielle compiled many of Dad's favorite songs and gave us all one.

 
Megan spoiled me with 3 Rescuers pins. 
 
Cinderella and The Rescuers are 2 of my favorite Disney Movies 

 
 Jeff spoiled me with a Disney Dancing Skeleton pin. 

 
Over the Top Amazing neighbor gift?  YES. 
 
 
 Grandma H made all of the Grand kids matching pajamas
 
 
 Christmas Day -- the Sun was so bright.. Chad wore my shades.
He's so Hot.

 
 This is EXACTLY what Christmas day looked like.
Yes.. Tenney got her phone.
 
I will blog our phone contract soon.

 
 She was Happy, Happy, Happy.
 
And I don't regret it one bit.

 
 Mary wanted "Prince Charming" and was excited to get him!

 
Christian had 5 Lego sets! 
It kept him busy for a week +.



Lots of Happy Mail still keeps coming


And I have loved each card


So much snow and sledding time to be had


 Mary would last about 20 minutes out in the cold -- and come back inside.
 
She's just like her Momma.

 
Funnest new game I got for Christmas?
 
Reverse Charades.
 
Seriously... it is Epic.
 
Today I am Grateful for:
 
A New Year.  Hoping it brings more Happiness than Sadness.
 
My blessings.
 
Hope and Change.
 
My Husband and Children
 
A listening ear.

Hello Ann,
If you like German food, you will like Dutch food as well. It is not different. I am jealous that you were able to eat all that yummy Swedish food. I have been to Sweden several time and loved the food over there.
Next Monday I will publish some photo's of our bath room on my blog. I know it will be too modern for you, but maybe you like to take a look anyway. I am still amazed by my little mason jar collection ;-) I love the lid on the one you sent me. I never seen it before.
You should visit Berlin if you have the chance, it is a beautiful city. Lot's of history there.
Have a nice weekend!
hugs,
Marianne.

I love the picture of Lia under the tree! She is so cute!
