'Tis the Season to be Busy!

Saturday morning was a busy but fun one! B and I headed out early and started making the rounds to see people we hadn't seen in awhile. First we visited with friends who had twins in September.

This cutie is Ava. She had the most adorble blue eyes and loves her Daddy!

And this sweet one admiring B is Paige. Definitely the quieter of the two...
I think she was noting how red and orange shouldn't be worn together. Smart girl!

And then last, but certainly not least, we visited with my sister and her family. Morgan shows us here how "beautiful" she looks when she is wearing a dress.

This is what the Christmas season is all about - seeing our friends and family and just enjoying the joy that comes into our hearts as we think about God giving his son for us.

12/5/07 Christmas Spirit

I just watched videos of my niece and nephew singing at their Christmas Concert... I will tell you what, they ooze Christmas Spirit. Between the wonder of Santa Claus and the joy of singing for Jesus, kids just GET it.

Christmas is about laughter and joy

Christmas is about family and friends

Christmas is about celebrating the best Birthday ever... with gifts and praise!

I can't wait to have those two over the weekend before Christmas. Even though they leave us exhausted, I always have tears on my cheeks when they go. Nothing is as sweet as a child hugging you, loving you, and trusting you.

Merry Christmas, Everyone!! The Christmas Spirit is in the air!
