Merry Christmas from the GRANDS!

Friday, December 20, 2024

Not only is it Friday,

it’s the Friday before Christmas!

We both are busy, busy, busy…

Getting ready for lots of family fun!

Laurie is hosting extended family this weekend

and Laura’s Middles and Littles have already arrived

for a few days of holiday goodness!

We’re signing off for 2025

to savor these moments with our loved ones!

and we can’t wait!

Bring on the Christmas magic!

In the meantime,

if you are in search of inspiration for the upcoming holidays,

you can find lots of our suggestions highlighted in past posts!

If you are looking for festive and simple appetizers to serve

at an upcoming Christmas, New Year’s or winter gathering,

we’ve got you covered here!

If your still need to put the finishing touches on your 

gift giving or stocking stuffing lists for loved ones, 

we’ve got our recommendations here and here!

If your family is like ours,

and you love a few good holiday games to get those competitive juices going, 

check out this post from last year!

While we love the hustle and bustle of the holiday season

and all of the joyous moments that come with it,

have no doubt,

we are ever mindful of the real reason we celebrate Christmas!

We love sharing our love of Jesus with our families and friends

and most especially our Littles!

If you are interested in learning more about the ways 

we’ve shared the Christmas story with Littles, you’ll find those links highlighted here!

THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts

for taking the time to stop by and read our blog this year.

Your many words of support have encouraged us 

and we continue to learn from you, too!

We love our blogging community!

If you'd like to subscribe to our blog, we'd love that!

And, that way you won’t accidentally miss our next post

(coming in mid January).

We can’t wait to see what 2025 will bring!

As we bid adieu to 2024,

our wish and prayer for you all

~ our readers and our friends ~

is that you find God's wonder in every day

spent with loved ones

(fur friends included) 

and we pray that His light from above

graces your home and touches your hearts now and always!

JOY TO THE WORLD!

See you back here in 2025!
