Christmas




















It has been quite a while since I posted but here are recent pictures from the holidays. We are trying to remeber to take more pictures when we are out. We always forget our camera unless we are at home. We have really slacked on taking pictures at functions we have been to and I really regret that so that is my New Year's resolution-Take my camera everywhere. Well a week before X-mas we went to Cleveland to eat with Vincent's parents. On Christmas we celebrated just the 3 of us at our house. My parents went to Arkansas this year to visit my sister, brother in law and elem. These are our pictures of christmas day-minus the last picture with the Beasley's. The holidays are definately the time that I miss my family the most. I remeber growing up and thinking that especially on Christmas my children would open there gift at our house and then we would either go over to the grandparents or they would come here. It is amazing how you picture your future as a child. I never thought I would live quite the distance I do from my family, especially my brother and sister. I love Chattanooga so much but it is really lacking in the Madewell department:) If you live near your family be thankful (that is my lesson for the day)

Glad you had a good Christmas! I know what you mean about living away from your family around the holidays. It stinks! But it makes your time with them that much more special. :)

Couldn't agree more about the family thing. Of course, it would be nice to leave near you as well!
