Merry Christmas!

Hope you have all had a great Christmas season! It has been a very different Christmas for us - we stayed home this year - and have had lots of time to relax and enjoy all God has done for us.


This morning, Joe fixed me breakfast and then we partook in Christmas festivities. We read the great story of Jesus' birth and then did our annual Christmas ornament tradition. We write on the ornament all that happened throughout the year - trips, blessings, big events. It is really fun the next year to look at past ornaments and reminisce.

Here are some pictures from our Christmas season....



We made Rice Krispie Treats with our niece, Ava. She helped decorate the top with chocolate. She liked eating some, too! This was back at the beginning of December - I think this is the only goodie we made!

Our completed 2008 ornament - some highlights included moving to Illinois, our 1st backpacking trip, Chicago trip with Joe's family, free Cedar Point trip, and many others.Hope you all have a great Christmas! We are headed to southern Illinois tomorrow for some Christmas festivities with Joe's family and then to Indianapolis for Campus Crusade for Christ's Christmas Conference.
