Christmas






Here are some pictures taken a few days before Christmas. I didn't take any pictures of Christmas day or any Christmas parties because I am a bad mom.


We had a good Christmas, the girls got lots of toys, Mary's favorite were the new clothes and Sara's favorite was the candy canes. Ben and I got the video game Rock Band for Christmas, we didn't wait for Christmas to open it though, we opened it a few weeks early, but we're mature adults so we can open our presents whenever we want.
The downside of Christmas was the sudden passing of my Grandma (Robertson) Jackson. She had a brain aneurysm that took her life Christmas morning. It was quite a shock because she was in good health and I thought she would live forever. She was a great example of hard work and service and lived a life full of love and laughter. I look forward to the day when I will see her again.

I'm so sorry about your grandma. Very rarely are any of us prepared for when a loved one passes on, especially on days that are suppose to be all happy! You'll be in my prayers!
