Good Morning! Thoughts of Christmas While Drinking My Morning Coffee

Good morning Christmas lovers around the world...and coffee lovers too!

I'm praying that today you have a day filled with such peace and joy that you think you are in heaven already!

What is your favorite coffee?

Mine's is vanilla macademia nut.

As an adult I would prefer to leave coffee for Santa.

But my grandchildren prefer to leave...

Here is a short video of my grandchildren

2016 Christmas

They bake cookies 

and

leave 3 cookies and...milk

for dear ole Santa :) 

Santa

after a long night of delivering toys

you deserve to relax on your rocker

drinking your coffee :)

Have a happy and joyful day everyone!
