Early morning frost!

I woke up this morning and peered out my window and it looked like time had frozen! No branches were moving, no grass was being blown one way to another and everything was just FROZEN (literally). Take a look at some pictures I took of this beautiful moment.

A merry Christmas and a happy New Year

This Christmas was an especially good one for me. Great time spent with friends and family, yummy food, fun presents, and celebrating Christ's birth were definitely highlights!

I woke up on Christmas morning to a fresh blanket of white snow, and ran downstairs to start off the day by opening up my stocking (a Christmas tradition. We always get to open our stockings before mom and dad get up). My family spent the rest of the morning reading the Christmas story, eating cinnamon rolls and eggs for breakfast, and opening presents!

Later that day, we had Mark, Jonny and Lisa over for a yummy Christmas dinner and fun games.


On New Years Eve we had the Ellenwoods. It was really fun spending time together, exchanging highlights of the year, and watching spectacular fireworks erupt all over town.

2008 has been a great year, and I welcome the year of 2009, hoping that it is filled with joyous moments, and surprises as good as, if not better than the ones last year! HAPPY 2009!!!
