Thank you to all the men and women who have bravely served our country in the Armed Forces. Yesterday was Veterans Day in the US and Remembrance Day in the UK. In England, every store gives out poppy pens to wear on Remembrance Day in honor of the fallen soldiers. We had the day off yesterday and enjoyed some quality family time. These are some of the pics I took yesterday.
We have had the most horrific weather this week. Wind gusts that have knocked everything over and lots of rain and freezing temperatures. And it really hasn't let up at all. So, this morning, the howling suddenly stopped for an hour or so and we walked outside to this magnificent site. I can just see our Creator's mighty finger drawing this and saying, My beloved children I remember my promise to you.
Part one of the Christmas tree is done! Tree is up, skirt is on, lights are lit!!
This is the first year Molly has really understood what Christmas is about. She is just soaking it in. We have been talking about what happens at Christmas and last night before bed, she said, Mommy, Santa come to bring presents because Baby Jesus is born. Oh yes, I cried at that one.
Daniel, snooping in the goods
Ohhh, look at that one, give it to me!
