Friends for Christmas

We have been blessed to have such wonderful wonderful neighbors who have not only become friends, but have become like family too. We had them over for a Christmas meal and to exchange gifts... It was like an early Christmas for us.

I'm quite frequently amazed at how good God is to us through the people He's placed around us. Without my family close-by, it has meant so much to have people embrace our family the way the Halls have.



Malachi said, "take a picture of me, mom." And then he posed like this. *sigh*



This is Abby, modeling the skirt we got her. :D



Micah and Jackson. friends.



Mathias, welcoming our friends with his sweetness.
