Chris and I had the pleasure of hosting our very first Gulliver Christmas Eve Party this year (just a few days early - as is tradition)! We are the first "grandkids" to take on the role of hosts and I must say, it was our pleasure! It was a wonderful evening visiting with family and sharing in the Christmas spirit. As seems true to the Arizona weather, most of the party lingered outside in the bearable, lack of snow weather. Okay, so we couldn't have done it without the heaters but everyone seemed to enjoy the crisp, fresh air.
Amongst the health challenges that some of my family members are facing right now, it was a true reminder of the reason behind Christmas. God has blessed us with a caring and compassionate family...we learn from the strength that radiates from those who define faith and have learned from them in the past few months. We are all stronger than we may know...but for the power of God's grace, trust in His plans. My prayers are strong for the Melvin family. We love you truly.
