Christmas Time

We had a great Christmas this year. The kids were really excited and we had a blast. We opened presents from Grandpa Tony and Gigi on Christmas Eve and then headed to Church and dinner. (Not the best idea, but that is for another post).

Christmas Morning we tore into more presents and just took it easy. My family came over for our non-traditional Christmas dinner. We had steak and shrimp on the bar-bey! YUM! It was a wonderful time! Check it out!

Holiday Fever

Do you have it? I know I do. I love, love, LOVE the Holiday Season! I love it all; the craziness, the shopping (not in crazy lines or on black friday), the gifting, the receiving, the eating, the tree, the lights, the snow. Yes, even the snow! I love it all. One of my favorites is Christmas music! Day after Thanksgiving that music is playing and pretty much doesn't stop until Jan 01. One of the neat things about this year is that Olivia is really old enough to start 'getting' Christmas. She loves all the "pretty lights." We have been talking about Christmas being a celebration for Jesus' birthday and how much we love Him and how much He loves us! It is so cute to hear her singing happy birthday to Jesus! We have stacking pyramid blocks and she calls those the "birthday candle" and blows it out after singing to Jesus! PRECIOUS!
She has Psalm 100:2 covered!
Worship the LORD with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.

I am so excited for this time of year! I hope that you are really enjoying it as much as I am.

Grace and Peace to you this Holiday Season!

Christ is Born!!
