well there is a song that says "it wouldn't be Christmas without you" and it always makes me so sad whenever it plays because I think of people in my life who are so important to me and I think of what Christmas would be without them and I just feel so sad inside!!!!! But today as we were hanging ornaments on our tree and that song was playing I felt sad... but then I remembered how it wouldn't be CHRISTmas without CHRIST!!! what would this holiday be like without JESUS? gosh... there wouldn't be anything to celebrate. I know that whatever happens in life... friends come and go.... relationships sadly fade away... family passes on to better places... but the one one thing that will always stay in my life is CHRIST!! I BELIEVE in my Saviour and I BELIEVE that JESUS is coming again and I am a blessed creature to live on this earth and live in his creation. I was feeling sad earlier today.... i was missing my grandma bee and feeling a little overwhelmed by how fast this year has gone by. I was just .... sigh..... a little sad. and i began thinking of how much I have been blessed with. I began thinking of all the wonderful blessings God has done in my life and I realized that with Christ I can get through the holidays..... and everyday. This is my favorite ornament this year. We have always had it but this year it makes me smile more than it ever has. I hope one day Geoff and I can be like this. :) what a wonderful thing to look forward to. I hope that we are this blessed as we age.
Here is our wonderful tree. Mom and Dad added a little after I took the picture, but still this is mostly the finished product.
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! I love you all.

oh crystal! what a nice post. i was thinking of you yesterday because i came across an old photo of my grandpa at christmas (in one of the old pieces of furniture he gave me). needless to say, i broke down crying. its our third christmas without him and its still just so sad. even though he is in heaven, and even though we have such wonderful memories; i miss him! i just downright miss how goofy he was. and the fact that he can't be at my wedding is so sad. so thank you for your post about your grandma. it just makes me feel there are others feeling the same way. yes we are blessed and we have so much love and family in our life, but it is still ok to feel a little sad sometimes... anyway, love you lady!
