Day 360 - Sunday, Dec. 26
Walked by the dining room and Jared was putting together his lego from his stocking. Boys never outgrow legos!!
Our band had Christmas off so our worship pastor asked Jason to play with him for church. I love seeing my son up there!
It cracks me up how much fun we have playing the Wii.

The most creative gift of the day.....

We started the evening at church.
Then came home to our traditional dinner of cheeses, shrimp, sausage, etc.
The kids read their Christmas letters to each other and exchanged their presents.
It was a beautiful evening and reminded me again what a wonderful family I have!

Day 349 - Friday, Dec. 17
it's 5:00 somewhere..right?
Met with some great friends today that I don't get to see very often. We exchanged gifts, got caught up on each other's lives and thoroughly enjoyed our time. Not sure why we wait so long between seeing each other.....maybe busy lives and 30 miles is the reason. I think we are going to have to work on that!!
Day 348 - Thursday, Dec. 16
One kid home....

You don't realize just how quiet your house has been until it is filled with sound again.

Day 335 - Friday, Dec. 3
Tonight was our annual Christmas Party for IFO
(International Friendship Organization)
During the year, IFO reaches out to international students in our area helping them to acclimate to life in the US....providing rides, helping get apartments, and meeting with them to practice their English, be their friend. The year culminates in a Christmas party and it is in the one place where IFO sets out to share the gospel of Christ. My church hosts the party and we look forward to it every year!!
This year we fed well over 500 people!!!
It is always amazing to see how God stretches our food!
We even had leftovers that we sent to a local shelter.
We had many countries represented...china, Korea, Iraq, Rwanda, India to name a few. Many of the students are muslim and have never been inside a church.
It was standing room only for the program!
So amazing to see all these people inside our sanctuary! And very cool to hear silent night sung in so many languages at the same time!!!!
But the best part was hearing someone sharing Christ in the hallway!!
What a blessing to be part of this!!!
