About a week ago, I received some additional inheritance money from my grandmother's estate. This is the grandmother who prayed for me daily. What an absolutely perfect thing to do with part of the money - buy a chair for a quiet place to spend time with God. I think Grandma would approve.

Shots of Christmas
We had a very lovely Christmas this year. Christmas Eve was spent at hubby's mom's place, Christmas morning at my parents, and Christmas dinner at my sister's. Of course, I always take a ton of photos, but I was surprised to find that I only took 165 on Christmas day. I can't possibly put them all up, but thought I'd share a few.
My mom and the grandkids.

I thought the Comedian was zoomed in further, so hubs & I should lean in for the shot. Not so much, I guess.

Back in November, ClayGuy made a tiny little penguin for each member of the family. Scroll down a couple more pictures for a better size perspective.

Can you find my penguin? She has a camera.
Close up of hubby's tool guy penguin. Interestingly, he got a tool box for Christmas. (Love the tiny little bokeh.)

A little size perspective

My mom, preparing pie crusts. Take note of the beautiful wooden rolling pin. My uncle made that. It's a lovely piece of art and she enjoys using it.

Behind her is the holder for the rolling pin. He made that, too.

I am so blessed with family that all lives in the same town, everyone gets along, and we truly enjoy each other's company. That's what really made it such a wonderful time.

Paper Christmas
In the spirit of simplicity, we used our paper Christmas tree again this year.
And if you're using a paper tree, you should probably make paper stockings, right?
Wishing everyone a blessed & Merry Christmas!!
