That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown

Every Christmas Eve my dad would read the Christmas story from the Bible. We'd sit in the floor around the tree & listen. I loved those moments. After finishing the story he would always close with, "And that's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown." The tradition has been passed to my family. We all sit in the floor around the Christmas tree while David reads the story. It a nice time to reflect & refocus on the holiday. Anyway, I'd like to wish all of you a blessed holiday season. Take time from the hustle & bustle to enjoy your family & friends and to thank God for His perfect gift to us.

Merry Christmas Weekend

What a weekend! We did all kinds of exciting things! Friday we let Morgan stay home from school. We finished packing and took off for Orlando. We checked-in at the hotel, Shades of Green, and unloaded the car. We got the kids dressed for the night & hiked to the Polynesian Resort to catch the monorail to Magic Kingdom. We walked around & did a few rides & had dinner, passing the time until Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party started! We got to see Belle & the Beast. She was dressed in her beautiful red Christmas dress. We got hot chocolate, apple cider, apple slices & cookies! Then we went to the dance party at Cosmic Rays. Santa Goofy was there. Morgan got to hang out with Chip & Dale on the dance floor! After dancing & some family pictures we went in front of the castle to watch the fireworks. Baby David watched in awe. Alexander was oooo-ing & ahhhh-ing & clapping! Then we went down Main Street to watch the Christmas parade while it snowed on us. I think that was the coolest parade I've ever seen at Disney! Of course, Santa brought up the rear! At 12:30am we left the park to head back to the hotel.

Saturday we went to EPCOT. We had lunch/dinner at the Biergarten in Germany. YUM! Morgan went down & danced with the other children & gathered around the tree for Silent Night in German & English. After a wonderful meal we went to the theatre in America. We enjoyed an amazing show. Steven Curtis Chapman read the Christmas story from the Bible. The Candlelight Processional was beautiful, incredibly moving. The choir & orchestra were great. If that doesn't get you into the Christmas spirit & focused on the reason for the season, nothing will!

Sunday we went to see Santa! After 2 1/2 hours in line the kiddies finally got there turn! They were so excited & the wait there is ALWAYS worth it!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! (pics coming soon!)
