Home for the Holidays

Nothing says Christmas time better than spending it with family.  This family counted their blessings as their loved ones traveled across country to be together this snowy Christmas;  a first in many years that they could all be together.  Nothing better than to share in the excitement of little ones awaiting Santa's arrival, stockings filled with chocolate, and an heirloom mistletoe hung for all who enter.  How wonderful to document and capture some of the memories made this special weekend.  Here are just a few from today:

Her Nana's mistletoe....love traditions!!

Love the twinkle in his eyes.....

Merry Christmas!

The Christmas Season is one of my favorites.  It's an extra busy time of year for all of us.   Decorating the house, baking, shopping, and wrapping; and when the craziness of the day quiets down and the kids are finally tucked in and asleep, there is peace found in the quiet of the house when only the glow of the Christmas lights shine.  I love nothing more than to take  time each night to enjoy the reason for the Christmas Season and reflect on what I am most grateful;  my family, my friends and the opportunity to do what I love.  I am also grateful for all of the new families I have worked with throughout 2010.  I wish each and every one of you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
