Merry Christmas!

Can you believe it is almost 2016?!  This has been an exciting year for me as I have started this blog, which is something I have been thinking about doing for a while now.  I have been overwhelmed by the amount of support I have received from fellow bloggers and friends.  I seriously do a happy dance every time you leave a comment on my posts!  I hope you have enjoyed my blog so far and hope you will continue to follow me on my blogging journey in the upcoming year.

The tree is decorated, the stockings are hung by the chimney with care, and the presents are wrapped and under the tree.  This time of year can be so busy with all of the shopping, decorating, and parties.  My wish for you is to be able to slow down, relax, and enjoy this Christmas season with your loved ones.  One of our favorite family traditions is to attend a Moravian Love Feast on Christmas Eve.  It is such a beautiful service and it really gets my heart and mind in the right place.  It allows me to stop worrying about the presents I bought (or didn't buy) or what food I need to make and focus on the real reason for the season, which is the birth of Jesus.  And if you have not watched A Charlie Brown Christmas, this year (or ever), make a point to do it, because "...that's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown"!

 Merry Christmas from my family to yours and I hope you all have a safe and blessed New year!



What are some of your family traditions at Christmas?

    We don't really have any Christmas traditions yet that are in stone. We are still working on it!
