Christmas Is In The Air

As excited and as eager as we were about Eryn's arrival this past October, it hardly compares to the glorious birth announcement the angel gave and the shepherds received over 2,000 years ago when Jesus was born in Bethlehem.  Celebrate Jesus' birthday and think about the awesome responsibility we have to introduce a new generation to our loving and gracious Savior and King.

Here's a photo montage of Eryn's 1st Christmas with the Hyland clan.

Mamaw Hyland gets a turn with baby Eryn

Papaw gets his turn, too.

Eryn meets cousins, Mark and Jamie.

And cousin Beth and 2nd cousin, Reese.

And we all opened presents!

Eryn sleeps through most of the festivities.

Unless she's eating!  Thanks Aunt Jenny for watching out for Eryn.

My lovely daughter and grand!

The traditional family picture..... minus Dowell  :-(

Dowell, you were missed!

And the day wouldn't be complete
without our traditional goofy picture, too!
Not sure the babies understand this concept yet?

We wish you all a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Remember, the REASON for the SEASON!

Jesus is the wellspring of our love, joy, peace and hope.

He is our Salvation!
