I just love the holidays!

We greatly anticipate tomorrow morning - spending time together as a family around the Christmas tree. I enjoy thinking about the new traditions we will create now, as a family, as the girls grow up and start to understand more about Christmas. I love to hear about other people's traditions - so if you have some fun ones, send them my way! I was thinking that starting this year, since Maddie is so into books, it would be fun to read a picture book of the Christmas story - as I truly want her to know and understand the real reason we celebrate. I also dream of the day that I can share my favorite tradition that I had as a child, sleeping by the Christmas tree on Christmas Eve night, with my girls! My sister Kelly and I always enjoyed doing that. I have many special memories of waking up next to the tree on Christmas and waiting for my parents to come out of their room so we could open gifts and spend time together. My greatest memories of Christmas were never of gifts I was given but only the special times spent together with my family. And that is what I hope my children will always hold close to their hearts too as they grow up!






The Hall family wishes you all a very blessed Christmas spent with family and friends. We joyously rejoice at the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Merry Christmas!

Baking with Grandmas

We had a fun time baking cut-out cookies with Grandma Pam and Great-Grandma Sally last week. I cherish the times I got to make cookies with Grandma Sally as a child and I know Maddie had a blast as well. Here are some photos of our time!







And then I just can't resist posting this new video of Maddie dancing - she just LOVES to dance, just like her daddy and mommy. :)

Merry Christmas!

Our family sends prayers and God's blessings your way, this Christmas season. This holiday we celebrate God sending His Son to this earth. What an amazing God we serve! Hope you have a blessed Christmas.
