Snippets from our Christmas

We had such a merry Christmas.  We were blessed to have my parents here for the festivities.  Here's a few snippets from the last few days.

The Tradition of Books for Gifts
   
Grandma Cessna and Emily


And now I leave you with another Cessna tradition:  Granddad reading to the littles. 
This year it was Morgan's turn.






And through it all the blessing of the birth of our Saviour rang clear in our conversation, our thoughts and our joy.

The book tradition is a big thing HERE, too! May the joy continue to bubble over as you reflect on the precious times you had and the reality of the Savior.

I love your photos the B&W with the colour, they are beautiful!
We love books too, the children all receive at least one in their sacks.

Beautiful beautiful beautiful! What a wonderful family. I love Granddad reading. Our grandpa sent some books that you record their voice. He didn't send some to our kids, but we are going to request it for next year! What a treasure and you have captured yours!
