God Bless us Everyone!

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

Today is Christmas Day 2006. I love Christmas. I love the season, the pleasures, the smiles, the joy in all. People you meet at the store, on the street, or even in your own neighborhood are saying hello and wishing you a happy holiday. What a different place the world would be if we could be like this all year long.

The Harpers have had a wonderful holiday. It is just the four of us, and for now we like it that way. The kids were well taken care of in the way of presents, but they also gave as many as they got. They are great boys. We watched a few home movies from Christmas's past -- ok, way past, like 16 years ago. It is amazing how time flies. And to look at it we are doing the same things on the holiday. We still like to spend time as a family. We still have a big dinner, and are too stuffed the rest of the day to do anything. We still watch movies all day long, and Jaron still has a house full of friends. :) Can't make for a better holiday.

But most of all, we still wish for all our friends and family the best holiday wishes we can muster. We miss our extended families during the holidays, but thanks to the internet and telephone, we can still be together to share the day.
