Our house is filled with the aroma of our sweet, apple tart candle burning in the kitchen. We have a plate of chocolate covered peanut clusters and holiday treats sitting on the dining room table. My oldest is asleep from hours of helping me shop this morning for some last minute items for Christmas. My youngest is giggling watching daddy move the Christmas tree into our master bedroom so all four of us can sit in our big bed tonight and read Christmas stories in the glow of the tree lights. The sun is shining in our windows pretending that it is warm enough to play in the snow; however, the ice cold wind will blast your cheeks if you dare go outside. Granny and Pa just left from a few hours of laughing with the boys. We are celebrating the day by spending time with our family and enjoying the holiday spirit.
Another part of our day has been cooking. I 
made homemade pizza for the boys for lunch and the roast with vegetables is simmering in the crock-pot for dinner as we speak. 
Made from scratch pizza is just better than I remember every time I make it. And who doesn't love a crock-pot of delicious roast.
We were also given a couple gift baskets yesterday and today from Mark's co-workers. The campus minister's wife made us the most delicious chocolate peanut clusters.
Make sure to celebrate your day with the people you love and enjoy that same holiday spirit.
