Merry Christmas From Our Home To Yours

It is Christmas!

Christmas has been very different for the past couple of years due to the pandemic and restrictions. It is nice to have a more normal Christmas break this year. I am really happy to have a family Christmas.

Last year, my daughter's family tested positive for Covid on Christmas Eve and we needed to quickly make different plans. The longterm home where my mother-in-law lives went into very strict restrictions on New Year's Eve and for 3 months I was the only person allowed to see her. Not what we were hoping for. It made the holidays bittersweet.

Our Christmas wishes became musical videos for each other. Here is the one we shared last Christmas.

Our kids also made music videos for us. Here is a parody our son made to ours.

Here are the family videos made by some of our kids and their families.

Carols and music are a special part of Christmas. I hope you enjoy listening to these ones. I know they have special meaning for us, but they can also bring joy to others as we think of Christmas and family time. 

Finally, this is my daughter and her kids singing Away In The Manger for a virtual Christmas service for her church.

I could go on and on about music and how it has impacted our family, but let's just say it is more than a hobby. It is something that is of great meaning to us. As you can see from this photo, even the grandchildren play musical instruments.

I am pretty sure we will have other musical moments to share in the future. 

​I hope that you are able to have some special moments with family this holiday season. Enjoy your holiday break. See you in the New Year.
