We started off our Christmas Season this year with dinner at my Grandma Joyce's house. Since Ryan, Michelle & Co. were in town, we thought it would be fun to gather us ALL together and spend some time with Grandma. It was fun to be all together for the first time since July, and Grandma always makes a simple dinner (soup & homemade bread) special.
After dinner, most of us headed over to the Temple to see all the beautiful lights & nativity display. This year there were nativities from many countries on display...China, India, Argentina, Italy (my fav), Kenya, USA, etc. They were all beautiful, and it was fun to see the unique differences in what each culture brings to the nativity.
I am thankful for our Savior and for the opportunity we get each year to celebrate his birth. I am also thankful Christmas gives us the opportunity to celebrate, spend time with & show our gratitude for all we have with those we love.
