Home for Christmas 2008

Just a short note to my blogger friends. We are in Round Rock for the Holidays with Heather, Lindsey and families. We arrived Saturday morning December 20 after flying all night from Ketchikan. We have been so busy with all the family celebrations. We spent Christmas night reading T'was the Night Before Christmas to my grand darlings and getting them in bed waiting for Santa to Arrive. For the first time since Heather and Jeff were married 14 years ago we all went to Christmas Eve service together. They have gone with Jeff's grandmother and family all these years and because she has moved to another church they went with us. It was absolutely the most wonderful Christmas Eve I have had in a very long time. We all sat together, Lindsey,Rob,Audrey,Blair,Grant Walker,Heather,Jeff,Carey and myself. Audrey only being one did very well during the service. We attended the children's service at 4:00pm. When Blair and Grant Walker went down to the front of the church to hear the story of Baby Jesus, Audrey pitched a very little fit so Jeff took her down front to be with Blair and Grant. We all sang Christmas songs and it was a beautiful evening.

Merry Christmas to everyone from the Martin family, and we wish all of you a wonderful New Year.

I'll post pictures later.
love Vicki
