Merry Christmas?

Oy. Our first week and a half of homeownership has been a doozy. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE our new house, but the work we are having done has not gone as smoothly as one would hope. Blessed we are to be able to do these things, so I am just trying with all my might to go with the flow and try to be patient. I just cannot wait to reside in the house, instead of the basement where we are staying now. Unfinished, might I add. Time to crank up the Christmas music and get into the holiday spirit... it's got to be lingering around here somewhere!

Not to worry, sweet sweet husband set up the Christmas tree down here and my parents sent a bounty of Christmas presents and a whole entire box of Dad's famous Christmas cookies. Yum! Tonight we will enjoy a special Christmas Eve dinner out and a candlelight Christmas service with Ryan's family.

One thing is for sure, we will never forget our first Christmas in our first house!!! Alas, Christmas is here and we will be spending it with loved ones! Blessed we are!

From our home to yours.... Merry Merry Christmas!
