Tis the night before Christmas, and all through the RV,
All the creatures are snuggly, even the dogs and me.
The stockings are laid on the dashboard with care,
In hopes that dear Santa can find them all there.
The children have grown and are just visiting us now,
And still, to celebrate with them we vow.
They have their own lives, all busy each day,
But we’re glad they had time to travel this way.
Our friends are scattered ‘cross the country tonight,
We wish them all a blessed Christmas that’s bright!
Whether in wind, rain, but hopefully sun,
We hope to visit with them soon for some fun!
And so, as the campground settles down for a time,
We quietly thank God for His gifts so sublime.
And we thank Him as well for the wondrous Love
That is bigger and greater than all the stars up above!
Merry Christmas, everyone!

I have been following your blog now for over a year. You are so lucky to have this wonderful life. May you and your family have a wonderful Christmas and keep the diary going since every night before I go to bed I follow your daily routine and a day without your blog is a day without sunshine. Merry Christmas from a Canadian gal...
