Christmas reflections

  Now... I know that Christmas is done and over with, but we still have our decorations up at the Bouws House (yup they rhyme).  Whether that be for lack of time or the simple fact that Christmas this year was... how shall we say it... perfect.  I cannot remember a more wonderful Christmas in the 27 years I've been celebrating it.  Some of you may think I'm crazy because this year we didn't have the ever-cherished 'White Christmas'... but let me just say I think it was FABULOUS!  Who needs snow!?!?!  Don't we get it enough around here?

  We had many family gatherings (and some may say we have too many).  But isn't that what the holidays are all about?  Spending quality time with your family... RIGHT??  Anywho, enough of my babbling.  I just wanted to reflect on the moments we shared this holiday season.   Many photogs out there created wonderful images of bokeh'd
:D DEFINITION :D  lights on their trees so I thought I'd share a few of mine

 I also did a bit of light painting to light up the Christmas Tree ornament.  I used an LED flashlight with a coffee filter that was folded over 4x.  The LED flashlight by it's self was just too bright.
