Christmas time at the Deeter Home!!!!



Well Christmas has come once again and has left for yet another year!!!Christmas is a very special time of the year but if your not careful you can get sweept away in the commercial side of Christmas and forget the true meaning of the season. This year my husband started a new tradition where right before family prayer we gathered the family together and he would read a different Christmas story each night. It was great and it keep things in perspective! We had many Christmas parties to go to this year and enjoyed the time we had to spend with family and friends. Christmas was very humble this year and I believe that is how it should be. The kids weren't over whelmed with tons of presents and therefore grateful for the ones they received!!! I hope Christmas was good for all and that the New Year is even better!!!
Some of our family traditions are Cinnamon rolls for breakfast Christmas morning and Santa on Christmas Eve comes to my mother in laws house!
