Wishing you and your family a blessed Christmas season!

We kicked off the official "season of giving" about two weeks ago. These were totally unexpected gifts and the kids were just so smitten with excitement!
This past weekend we also enjoyed two extended family gatherings! Call me crazy but I really LOVE getting together with family...no matter the occasion...gifts or no gifts....

To wrap up our weekend we moved our thoughts to the REAL REASON and inspiration behind the season.....CELEBRATING the BIRTH of our SAVIOR....the best GIFT ever!!
It's always so heartwarming to hear the kids sing about the birth of the KING....The woman who put in all the hard work of teaching our children these great songs deserve some sort of metal....especially when they have to deal with naughty children during practice (not that I would know anything about that....uhem!) The program was wonderful way to start the holiday week with that fresh perspective on our hearts.
This holiday season my heart is overwhelmed more than usual with gratitude. A perfect little baby sent from God himself, to live amongst us to be a living example, and then utimately the perfect sacrifice for my sins and yours. Giving gifts is so exciting and fun this time of year, but don't forget the reason why we are celebrating.
"JESUS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON"

From our family to yours........God bless you this Christmas!
