New Instrumental Christmas Recording
Hey everybody! Two posts in one day?!?! Can you believe it?! I just found out about a new Christmas recording that you might like. You can hear some samples here. After listening to the samples, you can enter to win a free copy of the recording here. Good luck!
Recent Holiday Happenings
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and are enjoying the Christmas season! We have enjoyed the time with family (recently Kris' sister and her husband and boys) and are looking forward to days ahead when my parents come to visit. We have taken all the Fall decorations down and are slowly continuing the Christmas decorating of our new home. The tree got done last weekend and several things put around the house. Kris has been out today doing some outdoor lights and things. I have a few more things to do. It's looking festive around here!
So, it's been a while since I last wrote anything here (surprised?). Hah! Again, fac*book has become my #1 computer means of letting people know how we are doing. I mentioned in my last post that I was enjoying the beginning of Fall. As we now near the end of Fall, I am noticing quite a bit of nice color around this area and have been pleasantly surprised. For the last couple of weeks, I have enjoyed seeing several trees become more beautiful than I think I have noticed since we moved here over two years ago. Part of it, I believe, is that our neighborhood is not that old, and the trees are quite young. This year several of them began to burst with beautiful color, and I've been loving it! I'm glad they planted the kind they did here. We are about at the peak or just past now though. It's still funny to me to have warm temps in Dec while seeing Fall color and Christmas decorations all at the same time.
A very special event that we recently celebrated was our sweet Emma's b-day. I just posted a whole album of birthday pics on facebook. Here is one in case you aren't on that site:
She is growing into a sweet young lady, and we thank God for her! She brings such joy to our lives. I must admit that this is a bittersweet time as I watch her slowly grow out of being a little girl and into a young woman. Time does fly by though, and I am trying to cherish each moment and stage of my girls' lives!
Well, I could go on and on about the last couple of months, but I will spare you all the details. Just know that God is good all the time, and He continues to teach us more of Himself in all areas of our lives. We do covet your prayers for us and the church God has called us to. We are at a crossroads of looking to see what to do in the near future for further community outreach, possible location change (no specific plans yet), etc. We need God's wisdom and help to make choices that will be to and for His glory!
