CHRISTMAS IS COMING!

"Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for ALL the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:10-11
Life is soo busy now! With Christmas coming and preparing to go home, time is going by soooo fast. Liz and I hosted a Christmas Movie Nite this weekend. We watched "A Charlie Brown Christmas" (a great little evangelical movie...Linus lets go of his blanket and basically preaches it at the end), played White Elephant gift exchange, read and discussed the story of Jesus's birth, and, as usual, ate lots of food. We also have our house decorated for the season, complete with our one foot tall Christmas tree (that I paid only $1 for last year) and ornaments that Liz made when she was little that her Mom sent. Whoo-hoo, Christmas!

Katie, You're the only one that showed up with a "White Elephant" gift...literally! Everyone else went out and got something they didn't already have laying around the house. I think you only wanted to have the gift exchange so you could downsize before going home. Good strategy!
