Merry Christmas! A Blogging Break, Links, and a Lilla Rose Sale

Merry Christmas from the Carver family!

This was only our fifth take. It's a record!

My amaryllis blooming in time for Christmas!

Even though it's Christmas Eve, I didn't forget that this is Monday and time for a list of ten! For your perusal over the next two weeks, I leave you with the links to ten of my Christmas posts.

I'm taking a blogging break for the next two weeks while my husband and children are off of work and school. You all have become such a part of my life that I'm a little nervous about this time off! But I'll be back on Monday, January 7, with a post about New Year's resolutions. Don't groan ~ I'm excited about these resolutions and I hope you will be as well. I'm also planning a series about large family living and continuing to pray about blogging about my adoption journey. I would welcome any thoughts, suggestions, or ideas!

Even though I'm not posting, I'll still be here to reply to comments. I'll also be on Facebook and popping into Pinterest.
