December 2010 was a very busy month. We went to piano recitals, dance performances, school programs, visiting family, yummy treats, watching favorite Christmas movies, church programs, delivering "12 days of Christmas", shopping, opening presents, Secret Santa's, etc. I had Christmas carols playing in the house every day. I love listening to the beautiful music. It helped to keep the True Meaning of Christmas in our thoughts. It was a wonderful month! Here is a collection of some of our adventures.

"It's A Small World" Clock

For our 39th wedding anniversary (Nov. 26th) we decided to get away. It was our "off" year for Thanksgiving so we went to California. My sister Beth got us a cool suite for 3 nights at her hotel. It was very nice. We ate Thanksgiving dinner there with her and then we spent 2 days in Disneyland/ Disney California. We had never gone alone so it was a different experience. We had a great time. I was amazed at how beautifully decorated it was for the holidays. It really was magical! My favorite ride has always been "It's A Small World". I love it. We had fun strolling through the shops. I took over 250 pictures so it is hard choosing some to post here. We really enjoyed getting away and spending time together.
