No Gifts under the tree




Yup you read it right. We had no gifts under the tree.(not on purpose, we were just to broke this year to buy gifts) Our kids didn't cry, I think they were sad but understood. We have never raised our kids to think Christmas was about gifts, but it was still hard to see them go with-out. However we had one of the most yummiest Christmas dinners ever. My hubby made 99% of it by scratch and it was so good. We invited our wonderful neighbor over and she is just a doll. She doesn't have children and we just adopted her. We like giving her gifts. My mom and myself made some knitted goodies for her and some other items and she brought over some goodies and the kids dove it. It has been one of the best Christmases ever! My sister Lori came over as well.
I love family and this was wonderful!
