Christmas....

After a nice flight we are here at the lake for family gathering. Kris will be hosting this year with a bit of help from me. She is planning everyone's favorites and cooking up a storm. A snowfall has made the scene pretty for now and worth the cold temps.

The house feels more like a cottage these days as more time is spent away. It is still "home" ,though, to us.

My Christmas wish is for peace on this earth of ours. I cannot understand the cruelty in the world. For now I count my blessings and try to be worthy.
