We Like Christmas!

I think that there is a direct relationship to the length of time we anticipate an event and the speed at which that event flies by. We have been looking forward to Christmas with all of the kids / grandson for months. Now that it's almost over, it seems that the time has taken wings.

We visited Leu Gardens Friday afternoon - saw many wonderful plants and flowers, especially roses. We had supper on the deck Saturday night and included our Orlando kids, Matt & Jill. Everyone attended Conway Community Pres on Christmas Sunday for worship and a great turkey dinner later in the day. On Monday we showed the gang our downtown stomping grounds - walked through the First Pres / Christ School block and the toured Lake Eola. We went to SeaWorld on Tuesday and enjoyed the dolphins, penguins, sea lions, and of course, Shamu. Spectacular!

Great food, beautiful weather (60's during the days) and blue sky, shared stories, games at night, lots of Luke time, family jokes rehashed, and we even got in The Princess Bride. All good stuff! Thank you, Lord, for family!
