Merry Christmas

What a sweet day today was. After sleeping in until 8:30, we drank hot chocolate while Brad told the story of Jesus' birth, death & resurrection. Our kids know lots of bible facts...they are learning for sure! Our prayer is that they will not only learn the facts but have a personal relationship with Jesus.

Opening presents with children is so much fun too. The past few years I've taken the kids (girls & boys separately) shopping for their siblings. They have a $1 limit each gift, but have a grand time choosing the perfect gift & then seeing them exchange gifts is great. We had everything from trucks to cotton candy to lipgloss to gummy worms.

We hope you've had a glorious time celebrating the greatest gift of all, Jesus.

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”- Isaiah 9:6
