Just a few more days....

With the hustle and bustle of Christmas upon us, I just had to sit down and share some of the happenings around the Pierce camp....

First and foremost, we truly are feeling the blessing of Jesus Christ this season.  We are extremely grateful for our families health and happiness this year.  We are excited to watch the excitement in little Reese's face as she opens her gifts.  She loves to point out Santa in all the books and movies around, and she loudly exclaims "Ho Ho Ho" when she sees him.

We were hit hard with a major ice storm about a week and a half ago, we were without power for six days, thank goodness my parents had power after 3 days at their ranch, so we spent the night with them those few days.  My Mom and I were talking one day and I told her I couldn't help but think God was telling us "Hold up people, this season is about ME!"  Had we not been iced in, for sure we would have been running 60,000 different errands getting shopping and baking done.

We had Christmas with my sister and her family this past weekend.  Oh, what fun we had!  Of course, everyone watched Reese tear into her packages!  This only led to confusion afterwards for the poor girl, I had to keep a close watch for the gifts still under the tree, she thinks she should open everyone!!!  We ate, laughed, watched football and volleyball and ate some more!  My Mom made the Southern Living holiday cake, the Red Velvet Cheesecake cake, yeah, THAT one!!  It was fabulous!!  She is such a great cook!

Now, I must finish my wrapping!  Merry Christmas to all!!!
