I love Christmas! For me, it is a holiday filled with the joy of family, fun traditions and fond memories.
This year I was able to photograph the newest edition to our family, Emma Jo, my cute little niece, as she had her first visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus.
Doesn't she look like a little doll. Her stockings were cute...she is so tiny they look like sweat pants on her little legs.

Santa holding Emma. I'm not sure Emma knows what to think of this whole experience...
A tender moment with Santa
Our former neighbor made the perfect Santa, complete with a real, snowy-white beard.
Each Christmas morning, we gather at my parent's home for family time, hot chocolate with a scoop of peppermint ice cream (stirred with a candy cane), home-made cinnamon rolls, and sausage.
This year, the favorite gift I gave was to my grandmother. The gift was a photo compilation of my grandmother surrounded by her 14 children.
Above all, I love that Christmas is a time to remember the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. He is the reason for the season.
Christmas is not only a time to remember His birth, but His life and love for all mankind. May His example of love and dedication bless your life each day.
Merry Christmas!
