Yes, we sure did have a fantastic family Christmas celebration on Saturday.

I snapped this photo of a nearby barn after our big snow last week.

Quiet before the Christmas Day chaos.

Ever since I heard this question posed on the radio yesterday, it's had me thinking:  If you could revisit a Christmas Past (like Scrooge did in A Christmas Carol), which one would it be?

After 6 months of work cleaning out 63 years' worth of life's accumulation, Mama's farmhouse/garage/barns are finally empty.

The world sure lost one unique soul when my Uncle Otis passed away this week in his home near coastal North Carolina.

The thermometer said 6 degrees when I woke up this morning.  That's cold! 

There's nothing like waking up to a world blanketed with brilliant soft snow.

My father-in-law Kenny had an overflowing house of 42 for his early family Christmas.

See these 24 kids here?!  I am still on Cloud 9 after their FANTASTIC Christmas musical performance last night!
