christmas is the MOST wonderful time of the year

this year's christmas was new and different. this year wasn't about the presents - it was all about family and spending quality time with our loved ones and showing each other that we love each other. having hudson here put a new spin on how we approached christmas. we spent time as a family reading the true christmas story and thinking about maddie and praying for those less fortunate. we missed maddie like crazy (like we always do), but we have been blessed to now be able to celebrate with hudson.

we spent christmas eve at mamaw's and papa's house for the annual maddox family christmas party and then we went to justin's mamaw's house. we spent the night with mimi and pop and santa clause came there - then we went to nina and papa's house to continue the celebrations!


christmas is the best time of year - because not only does it lend itself to spending more time with family and friends- it's a constant reminder that God loves me and that He masterfully planned the birth of his son to a virgin and He put all those plans into action because He wanted to save me (and you too!)....Thank you Jesus for your love and salvation. thank you for justin, maddox elise, and hudson - my family means so much to me.....
