Love & Joy Come to You…

December 22, 2008 by Elaine

I am pretty sure I won’t be posting too much this week (it’s okay, I’ll be alright… I think…)

I may autopost a Wordless or Wordful or both on Wednesday but we are off to see the wizard, I mean my family, tomorrow afternoon and well, I will be busy making merriment of ALL kinds and for once the ole blog might just take a back seat to such things! ; )

I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah. If you haven’t seen my holiday posts scroll down for our Christmas Card & letter, my tour of the house for this year and our Gingerbread house. Yeah, I am too lazy to link up.

Here’s a little Christmas Past for you… a picture of the boys on Christmas morning last year with their “Santa” toys and matching jammies. Aren’t they cute? Where oh where does the time go…

God bless the master of this house,

Likewise the mistress too;

And all the little children

That round the table go.

Love and joy come to you,

And to you your wassail, too,

And God bless you,

and send youA Happy New Year,

And God send you a Happy New Year.

(last verse to the Wassail Song)

P.S. If you participated in the Favorite Food Swap and have a post up about what you recieved you can link up HERE.

    Merry Christmas, my friend! Wishing you all the joy and peace of the season. Well, at least peace of heart since “peace and quiet” will be hard to come by with a bunch of kiddos!

    Cannot believe how tiny G was a year ago! Fuzzy hair…so cute.
