The Spirit of Christmas

I am so bummed that Christmas is over!  People start putting away decorations and taking down the lights…but NO…not me. I plan on leaving mine up until at least mid-January.  I want to hang on to the magic as long as possible!
Our Christmas program was incredible at church!  God showed up in a huge way [...]

The Wonder of It All

I love Christmas A LOT!! Seeing it through the eyes of an adult is so different than through the eyes of a child! I love the smells, the lights, the hustle and bustle, FAMILY, music, pictures, food..you name it. Most of all, I love the story of the Birth of Christ, the magic of the [...]

A Baby Changes Everything!

Don’t let the title fool you!!  I don’t have some huge new announcement, it is just the title of an amazing song!
