We Gather Together

Like most families we have been busy with the
business and gatherings of family, loved ones, and
friends celebrating Christmas, and we have had a
wonderful time doing so.

I was blessed to have one of my sisters and her
family stay with me for two days, My nephew came
home from Japan to spend the holiday with the family
it was wonderful for he gave all of us a special gift by
announcing the name of his child that will be making
it's debut sometime in the new year. we were all
very excited to learn the name and I think it
will suit the child well.

It was great to spend time with my sister
then on Christmas day we spent the day
with all my sisters and our families together
then we all ended up at one of my cousins house
where other cousins and uncles attended and we
embraced each other and we learned some family
history that I never learned before. ( I thought that
to be a gift in itself , for I am a nut about family history!)

when I got home I decided that I was going to write it
down and perhaps start a project of a journal with it
for my knowledge or just to have our family history


now we are kind of getting ready to ring in the
new year normally we are always just myself, kids
and husband this year kids are having a little party
at the house so guess who is the caterer for this party?!

oh well at least I know it will be fun ( at least I hope so!!)
