... silent night

For God so loved ....


“our hearts grow tender with childhood memories and love of kindred,
and we are better throughout the year for having, in spirit,
become a child again at Christmas-time.”
- laura ingalls wilder -

*sharing the above image with:
kim's texture tuesday
... the Christmas Eve-edition
{texture used: wake - multiplied @ 80%}


... silent night


thought i would add a little something extra to this image,
minus the texture, and then make it our family Christmas card.

with this i'm wishing you all a very joyful, and peaceful,
  Christmas season with all those special ones that you hold dear.

*it's good to be posting here once again,
although i have posted, on occasion, over on my worpress photography site.
my heart is to post more often, but life has just been a bit challenging
with some health issues concerning my dear husband,
and i've been on an emotional roller coaster.
needless to say, i haven't forgotten you ...
i've missed you all and hope to be catching up with you very soon!

in the meantime,
may your new year be exceedingly happy,
healthy, and abundantly blessed!

- hugs,
deborah xo

Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything. - Aaron Siskind
