You have such a beautiful family!

Janie, Thanks for your sweet comment on my Mary's post. I had to hop on over to your blog and see if you had anything new. I wasn't disappointed and was happy to see your fun Christmasy post!

Fun family pic of all of y'all together. =) Cute pic of you and Carl with the candy canes. Your Christmas breakfast looked yummy. Loved seeing all the festive pics from your time in IN and with Grammy and Pastor too!

So glad you had a good Christmas!
Love ya,
