On behalf of all of us here on TheBlaze's news team, Merry Christmas to you and yours this year. Our hope is that you are safe — and, if you live in the United States, are able to remain relatively warm.

This has been a great year for us, and we have enjoyed all the feedback you have given us. We hope to enjoy another great year with you next year.

We will be taking a break until Monday morning so that the team can enjoy Christmas with their families. We will see you all again on Monday.
