Cactus Gardens 2009

Each year, since Greg and I moved to Vegas, we have gone to the Cactus Gardens on Christmas Eve. I realize it is not Christmas Eve, but the girls and I did it today. If you are ever in Vegas in November or December it is a great time to go to the Ethel M. Factory. Each cactus is strung with hundreds of lights. (how would you like that job?) This year they have added so much. It was fun.





(she makes me laugh!)

The lights are so great. My weak camera cannot even begin to capture the pretty lights. Oh well, I just like to pictures of my cute girls.

This Christmas season I am just going through the motions. I have been trying to do things for the girls. None of it has brought me the joy that it usually does. I am so thankful for the Christmas season and for my Savior, Jesus Christ. I am grateful for his birth, life, atonement, death, and Resurrection. I usually love the feelings that this season brings. I just wish that I had a husband to celebrate with. I miss Greg so much right now. I can make it day-to-day with out him, but right now with the holidays, I really want him here. The last year has gone by in a flash, so the next four months will also. Anyway enough about my pity party. We hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Michelle, I don't even know how you do it without Greg there. I think you're stronger than I would be. Those pictures of the girls are so cute!
