Christmas 2010

One of my favorite quotes I heard this Christmas holiday, "Great importance is placed on Jesus' birth, but dying was His main purpose in coming to earth!"  Our Advent activities, especially the reading of "Jotham's Journey," helped us to really look at why God came to earth as a baby and what that means for us.  I pray the things we learned during 2010's Advent will stay with us through 2011 and beyond!  I hope that you each had a wonderful time spent with loved ones! 

"Happy Birthday Jesus!"

Looks like 3 very happy and excited kids! Love that smile on E's face.

So is your backyard now covered with snow?

Love your table runner.

The Advent was a perfect way to welcome in Christmas. Thanks for sharing it with me.

Hey, is that a Red Ryder carbine-action, two hundred shot Range Model air rifle with a compass in the stock and a thing which tells time???
