Our travel plans this holiday season brought on the need for our family to celebrate Christmas a few days early. I think once you see what our big gift was for this year, you’ll understand why transporting gifts on the road was not a good option…
You remember how I shared that three of our boys are taking music lessons this year – one piano, one guitar, and one drums. A drum set (which we got for a fantastic deal online) was the perfect gift for our “band of boys.” Out came the guitar, synthesizer, and microphone to join the drums – and it’s been one very loud jam session ever since.
This has been incredibly fun to experience. It has also been incredibly…loud. We expected nothing less, but WOW. Today’s project has been to clean out and rearrange our upstairs “game room” so that we can transfer all instruments far away from mom’s office. :)
We’ve had some great down time and oodles of fun with our new instrument and board games. Now, we’re working to get ready for a huge road trip. Praise God for all the fun and family time that Christmas brings!
What are you thankful for this Gratituesday? Leave a comment to share!
I just wanted to say thank you for all you have done for my family in inspiring us to make changes. We are all healthier because of it and we look forward to many more recipes in the new year. Praise god! Merry Christmas to you all!!
We bought our daughter a drum set for Christmas too since she is taking percussion at school. My husband said I’m crazy : ). I know a pillow can be put in the big drum to soften the sound. That will definitely be happening!
I am very thankful for what God has done this past year for my family. I can’t wait to see what next year brings for my family. I also thankful that my hubby starts his vocation in lest the an hour and half and we get to spend some much needed time together as a family. I know we are having a another situation that not in our control and I pray that God will give me the grace to honor him in that situation. You and your family have a great Christmas and family time together.
Merry Christmas!!
I am grateful for family and peace! My husband has a week of vacation after Christmas and I am so thankful to the Lord for providing that for us. It has been an amazing year and I know the Lord will continue to provide for us in 2015. Have a lovely Christmas!!
Looks like your family is celebrating Christmas three times! Wonderful!
