Merry Christmas



We hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas!  We spent Christmas Eve Day with Matt's family and Christmas Day with my family.  We completed our reading of the advent story, Jotham's Journey.  The kids enjoyed reading a part of the story each night and it helped to keep us focused on the true meaning of Christmas--Christ.  And it helped to remind us that it isn't just about His birth but that He came to earth to save us from our sins!  "It's About The Cross"--that was my favorite song from the kids' Go Fish Christmas CD.  Their favorite song, which we heard over and over again this year was "Christmas With A Capital 'C' ".
