Christmas with the McDowells

This Christmas was a sad one for our family. My sister-in-law, Kristen, lost her mother just two days before Christmas after a long, hard fought battle. My Dad also had shoulder surgery a couple days earlier. We still managed to have a good time and my Mom did a great job making a delicious meal and preparing a beautiful Christmas celebration for our family! Thank you, Mom!! I know it was a difficult time. Lots of presents!!
