Merry Christmas Everyone!

[BeckyVA]

The gifts are all wrapped and the grandkids are all home in their beds after a nice walk through the neighborhood looking at the lights and viewing the stars in the sky wondering when Santa would be flying overhead in his sleigh.
I, Gramma, have baked all the cookies and the neighbors and their kids, grandkids and families have been given a sampling...our blessings are abundant as we prepare to close out the year...my brother Randy is healthy and happy, I still have both of my parents and my mother in law, a loving husband and :) my other brother and his wife have a healthy baby boy born in September and my children, their spouses and all our grandchildren live close by and are healthy. It has been a roller coaster of a year and it's time for me to count you all too as my blessings. Thank you all for your friendship, love and support this past year. I very much enjoy the JIMB and all of you I've met and those of you I only know through dialogue. God Bless each of you with good health, happiness and good friends for the coming year. Merry Christmas, your friend, Becky (Virginia Beach). :rolleyes:

I'm so happy Randy is better, and that you have such a full and loving life!
Merry Christmas, and the new year will be even better, because you're here!
Hugs,

My Granddaughter has gone and most of the paper has been picked up, well at my house at least. Their are lots of people to thank for all the wonderful Christmas presents and a memorable Christmas. My sister "Aunt Charlene" who hosts the event. All my family at Char's, especially my sister char and (my niece Amy just happens to be a professional photographer) who conspired with my son and daughter-in-law to spend an afternoon taking pictures of my granddaughter "Haley" age 3 1/2 (who happens to be beautiful and very photogenic) (I know everyone thinks their grandchildren are beautiful) but mine really is). Anyway I got 72 4x6 prints, a CD, and the copyrights, pretty good huh. Uncle Steve (on her mom's side) got Haley a great big Dora Doll House, and Haley has been playing until she drops playing until she drops. Right now she is at Uncle Ronnie's and who knows what she will get. This a child from a poor family, but she is not poor this Christmas and neither is her Grandmother (me).
My friends who stepped in to help buy her some practical gifts. Way too many blessings to mention! Thank You the Great I Am!
