Willoughby Christmas pictures 2011

As you can see...I'm a little behind on my "blogging".  I decided to make my New Years resolution early. Drum role please....to blog more! I read family and friends blogs quite often....but just can't seem to get myself to write on here. I'm hoping in the new year...I'll do better.

It's been two years since we've had Christmas pictures made with the whole family. In 2009, I just had the kids picture on a card and last year we moved into our new home around the Christmas holiday and never got around to getting them done. This year, I had no excuses. I actually finished them early.

So from my family to yours, we hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

With Love,

Jeremy, Karon, Lane, Hunter, Makayla
and our latest addition (back in July) Peanut.

Don't Forget Jesus

Christmas is a special time
To reflect on Jesus Christ
The wonder of His lowly birth
Brings meaning to our lives

There really is no other reason
We celebrate this day
The birth of God’s precious son
And the life He willingly gave

But so much seems to distract us
In the busy-ness of our lives
We lose our focus in all the happenings
Not knowing, we leave out Christ

We lose sight of the true meaning
As we endlessly rush about
Trying to find that perfect gift
Seems to cloud our Saviour out

We need to stop and reflect awhile
Remembering our precious Lord
His birth, His life and sacrifice
And all that He stands for

For though the world may celebrate
It seems though for other reasons
Let’s keep in mind that Jesus Christ
Is the true meaning of the season.
