Merry Christmas 2014

This Christmas season was especially precious to us as my parents Nana & Papa came to visit.  This was our first time ever having family in town visiting us for Christmas so it was monumental!

In the week leading up to Christmas the girls made gingerbread houses, 

sewed dresses 

and baked cookies among other things.  

  
We had a really wonderful time as a family and made great memories.

Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah,the Lord.
- Luke 2:11

Sitting with Santa 2014

We took the girls to our annual Santa visit at Bass Pro Shop.

This picture pretty accurately shows how much the girls enjoyed waiting in line to see the jolly old guy.

But after they visited with Santa and made their Christmas requests they were all smiles!

Probably not too many more years of getting them to do this, so I will treasure these pictures!

I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.
- John 16:33
