Macro Monday--a Macro Christmas Day

Christmas Day 2010

A Very Blessed Christmas To Everyone

May the snowflakes
fall lightly on your brow
May the soft winds
freshen your spirit.


May the sunshine
brighten your heart
May the burdens of the day
rest lightly upon you.


And this Christmas and always,
may God enfold you
in the warmth of his love.

This dress took a little more time than I expected, but it's done in time for Christmas Eve!!

I need to thank my teens, Amy and Laura, for their absolutely perfect choice of fabric!!

Trimming the Tree

We tend to have a party for anything...but Sunday wasn't anything. It was a very important thing.

Putting up the Christmas Tree.

Everyone was home for this traditional event.

We had tacos for dinner, (in honor of Our Lady of Guadalupe) and then Mexican treats for after the tree was done. It was a real fiesta.

Hubby even managed a siesta on the feast day.

Luke and Mark taking a break from the fun.

Have I ever mentioned the house is small.....I couldn't fit all 10 kids in the photo at the same time, but believe me, they were there.

(They ate 5 pounds of taco meat and about 40 taco shells.)

A new little snowman peeking out from among the branches.

I think this is just a funny picture.

Hubby and first daughter, Becky, putting up the star.

The reason for the season.

And here they are....the famous 10 kids from Ten Kids and a Dog----you will notice, the dog did not fit in the photo, in fact, the ten kids barely fit in the photo.
