Merry Christmas!

Happy Birthday Jesus!! At our bible study Christmas party this year we dedicated it to the kids and it really reminded me again of what the season is all about. "And you will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth" - Luke 1:14 It was a birthday party for Jesus. We had a birthday cake that read "Happy Birthday Jesus" and we sang happy birthday, played games, etc. It's so easy to get caught up in the "to-do's" this time of year so it was great to see the kids celebrating the true reason for the season.
Last week I asked Eddie what he would like for Christmas...his answer, Candy! I asked him again a day or two later, his answer, an apple juice drink. I think I can handle both of those!
So, I wanted to get some cute Christmas photos taken of the boys. My plan, go to the beach, build a snowman in the sand and snap some pics of the kids next to him. Well....that was much harder than I thought and didn't work out at all! So anyways, in few moments we had with Eddie clean we took a few shots of him. By the time we got to Will the memory card was full, I had grabbed a smaller card than I intended in the rush of trying to get out of the house!! I only got one shot of him and the photos aren't too "Christmasy" but here they are anyway.


Now May the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all. 2 Thessalonians 3:16
