Scrap Girls Digital Scrapbooking Forum: Viewing image Celebrating Christmas - Scrap Girls Digital Scrapbooking Forum

When I started on my lo, I had so many pictures I wanted to include, so I decided to do a colloage with them. Journaling reads; I absolutely love Christmas, everything about it. the decorating, I have been collecting for 40 years, the lights, and having family and friends in. I especially love the quiet evenings with my husband when we turn out all the lights in the house, turn on all the christmas lights, light candles and sit in front of the fire. But the most meaningful time is when the entire family gets together for our gift exchange. Before we start, my brother, now the senior member of our family, reads the Christmas Story. It is so easy to get caught up in the festivities that we sometimes forget the true reason we celebrate. My daily prayer for our family and friends is, of course, health and happiness, but most of all may their love and commitment to our Blessed Savior grow stronger each day.
