Christmas this year wasn't like all the other Christmases of my life. With the arrival of my niece, Maylee Kate, my mom was up in Utah with my beautiful sister and her family for Christmas. 27 years of waking up to my family Christmas morning, this year our mom wasn't with us. Quite a different feeling and very noticeable that we all missed her. With a little help from skype and a web cam she was able to watch and interact with all of us through the computer, along with with Ashley, Paul, Brooklynn and miss Maylee. We still had a great Christmas and were able to share our love with our family. With mom being gone that left Shayna and Dad with carrying on the tradition of our big Christmas Eve dinner. The dinner was fabulous. Dad cooked the turkey, made the Ridley Salad and Shayna took care of all the trimmings, oh and Brooke brought the jello. All around Christmas was great. I have so many things to be grateful for and my family is at the top of the list.
