On Communique Dissaray...
We continue to run into this minor dilemma around this time of year...what, in today's culture, is the most meaningful and effective means of sharing our life with those who are not near to us? We regularly visit Facebook, which allows us to keep near daily tabs on the comings and goings of those we 'accept' as friends. We also enjoy the blogs of those who are utilizing this forum on a regular basis, telephone calls, skype, are always great for instant connections. However, there remains the age-old, tried and true, time-tested Annual Christmas letter. I suppose it is that letter I should be devoting my early morning hours, before any others in my home have awakened, but i find this question of means and ends entering into the equation. There is much to be said about tradition and the importance of carrying on a legacy, developing a family tradition, etc...but what of starting new ones?
We have had a fantastic fall and are settling into the Christmas season. We've started a great Christmas devotion with the kids where they are playing piano songs included in the devotion. Thanksgiving was terrific and went off without a hitch, I managed to grill the Turkey outside and it turned out GREAT. Deb made some fantastic pies, Sarah some terrific side dishes and the ROLLS!!
These pictures are from the past few months...just a slight glimpse, until we decide what may be the best way (or maybe WAYS) to share...
