So since Christmas is like 17 days away, I thought I would share a few things that I look forward to about Christmas/winter.  O.k. maybe more than a few, it is my favorite time of year.  :)  
Here it goes!  
(These are not in any order)

1.  **Snow, snow, snow and more snow!**  :)  Even though we now live where snow is pretty much a stranger, I still love it!  I'm dreaming of a white Christmas and winter!  I have faith that we will get lots and lots!  :)

  

  2.  Celebrating Jesus' "birthday"!  

 

Luke 2:11 "For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord."

3.  Christmas lights

Hey y'all!  Whatcha' been up to?  Do you feel like your a chicken running around with it's head cut off because of all of the holiday bustle?  To me, that's part of the fun!  You think I'm crazy, I know.  Hey, Christmas only comes once a year.  But even though it is fun to get caught up in the Christmas shopping, Christmas lights, decorating, baking, sending Christmas cards....etc.  We must not forget what Christmas is all about!  We need to make sure we keep the real reason for CHRISTmas in CHRISTmas.  

"Isn't there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about?"  - Charlie Brown

"Sure Charlie Brown, I can tell you what Christmas is all about."  - Linus

"And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them; and they were sore afraid.
And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David, a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you: Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."   
Luke 2:8-14

 

"That's what Christmas is all about Charlie Brown".  - Linus

Have a great day!
