Making Your House a Home


Christmas was wonderful in many ways. But before I bombard you with all the stories, memories and photos of happy, tired and sugared-up children, I wanted to honor my mom for how her hospitality (with much much help from my dad) made our Christmas so special. From all the food & treats she prepared to how she decorated her home...she once again, out did herself. She has truly made her house a home...(and has given me many good ideas for mine). Here are some photos of the little things in my parents home that make it so special for me & my family. Thanks mom and dad, for putting up with our family of 5 for 5 days. All the little things you did, did not go unnoticed! And for Jonathan. I know you will also enjoy these photos. We missed you this Christmas...stay safe little brother!





And I cannot forget my angel...yes. If there ever was an ugly angel...it would be this one. I made it when I was little and the fact that it still hangs on my mom & dads tree after all these years shows they must really love me!

those are the very same things that I look forward to...the things that I miss the most. The house looked beautiful as always. I wish I could have been there in person. Thanks for sharing Chrissy, and thanks to mom for all that she does.
