The count-down is on...Christmas is in just a few days. I'm so excited! I love the time we get to share with family for days in a row. My sister's birthday in on the 23rd so the celebration for her always kicks off the gatherings for the rest of us! I love the laughter, the food, the feelings that are so spceial to this particular time of year.... everything has a magical sense to it - an extra happy, loving touch.

I sincerely hope your Christmas holiday is filled with love and smiles and hugs and warmth. Enjoy your family and your friends and every single minute that passes. Live in the moment and drink in every ounce of joy that this heavenly season provides.

Merry Chrsitmas to all of you!!
