Courtesy of 9News: When you look at the family photos, you see all the things that make for holiday memories. There are twinkling lights on a Christmas tree, garland, food and family.

We were not lucky enough to have children of our own, but we are lucky enough to have a brother and sister-in-law who are more than happy (4 comments)
