I adore my family so much!! Despite me being in bed for three days strait, we managed to get our family Christmas gathering together on the 27th. Maggie and Kelli finished the shopping and did all the gift wrapping, house cleaning, animal care. 

There was a lot of scrambling around but when all was said and done, it was a lovely evening with my wonderful family. Lot's of laughter and even tears. 

Little Miss Artist,  Kelli Gail, painted two pictures that made me and David shed tears. David's was inspired by 911 and the death of two parakeets, Lennon and Abbey Road, then Mooch, my boo boo Kitty.

Being surrounded by my family meant more to me than anything ever could. I am truly blessed...... with that said, enjoy the photo's!
